The skill of the driver should not really play a role here because the distance is so long... the only way to affect results big time would be to miss the shift from fourth to fifth and loose a lot of valuable accelerating distance. I talked to the driver after the run and he complained nothing like that.
On the other hand it might come down to aerodynamics after all since a second friend of mine was also out there this time around with a 9k with following mods:
3" exhaust, big IC, injectors, bigger fuel pump, bigger turbo (Schwitzeri s200) and modified head, dynoed to 300+hp.
This car managed 230km/H.
IMHO the results look about on line for the other 9k also with fewer mods.
