My by design stage 3 991TTS was one of the fastest cars at the Slipstream event
So it turns out that the car had a few issues at Atco. It wasn't just the rush, intercooler fittings or the hose that popped off that day last week. We did a few hardware changes and ended up with the full stage III kit. After some data logging we verified everything and the car was back to the top. Feels great and definitely/noticeably stronger than the stage 2 I had before. Solid every run!
There were some fast cars at this event and big muscle. As the day went on I learned the car more and worked my way to the top ultimately ending up at the shootout as one of the fastest cars there. Technically I took first but that's only because my top competitors disqualified themselves by jumping the gun in the heads up roll races. I probably had the 5th or 6th fastest cars there behind some GTRs, a Mustang, supercharged Corvette and lightning fast 997. Special thanks to SamboTT and all of his help throughout the process. It couldn't have all come together without JR at RSW and the amazing service those guys have to provide. It was a lot of fun and the car was faster than it has ever been! Can't wait for the next stage guys!
The car pulls super hard and sounds amazing now with the catless exhaust. People couldn't get over how badass it sounds and the flames shooting out the exhaust tips are the icing on the cake!

Excellent results! Cannot go wrong with Cobb and By-Design.
The By Design stage III is a monster. I too have a really good feeling about what Sam has in the cards for stage IV.
Pretty sure gonna shock the world.

I heard you're car was running pretty darn strong from some friends that were there. Sounds like it was a fun day! Next time, I'm going to coordinate a family visit with their event so I can make it.
We run against each other on Saturday. I had the Grey Audi RS7. Your car is a beast! It sounds orgasmic!

I trapped my higher mph too, 142.67mph on that run. APR tuned on the 100 octane map and racegas. Everything else stock.

In order to make the finals The car had to be trapping in the 150s. My friend who had an orange supercharged Z06 said that the car only trapped 141 against him but there's no way that speed could've gotten it into the finals. It would've had to have trapped in the low 150s to get there. The low 150s was my goal for the day until I got knocked out by that damn no passenger rule.
Plus one. Post pictures of your best Timeslips

Is this the one from the video below?
Awesome Rob! I am so glad you got to enjoy the day and run hard!
Thanks to all the guys involved to get the bugs out from JR to Mitch and Jon at Cobb who helped us with where to look remotely from the logs. Yeah she sounds sweet!

I wonder why the trap speeds for the Cobb/ByDesign Stage 3 991 Turbo S film Slipstream are not being posted or the timeslips pictured and posted. I always post my best traps and pics of the slips. This was a great win for the car.
I will check with my brother and my friend to see if they have more footage of this car. The one video I posted, the car went 149.xx but I am pretty sure that I saw it in the 150s.
