Street-legal, original-floor-pan, air-cooled VW Beetle CABRIOLET doing 7.97@169mph in the quarter?!

It looked like the he jumped the gun. The red light at the bottom of the xmas tree?

He did- so he lost the round, but still got the record time. As long as the tree doesn't automatically suspend measuring time when you redlight (some tracks won't display a time, but Santa Pod obviously still does the time even after a redlight) redlighting doesn't change the interval between tripping the lights.

Question is, is this a Porsche air cooled engine modded to the nines? That would be the easy way to get that kind of numbers out of this Vee-Dub.
