New 991 stock Turbo 1/4 record set at the red list 10.19
#32
Mark, congrats on your personal victory. For such few mods, your car performed well!
For the record (no pun intended) my 997.2 was the big turbo with alphas. If you really want a chuckle, it went as slow as 10.5@130 (on 12psi - ha ha). It was the first time it had ever been driven so yes the COBB guys were working hard to dial in a completely uncharted setup. FYI, the 997.2 basically has the same powertrain as the 991.
At the end of the day, it was the fastest and quickest Porsche of the day, the only Porsche to run 9s at the event, and the worlds fastest 997.2. Cheers

I remember that. I spoke with Tony about it. The catch can is going to be installed before it ships out to take care of that. It was no big deal. It was no big deal on throttle lift. I know every time something happened or a car broke everyone like to see what was going on.

FYI, Webcar I talked with IPD Mike many times throughout the day. He's got a good trap speed but we were drag racing and its fastest to the finish line is all that matters And the mods are not the same he's got every bolt on plus Meth. He's a good guy hopefully he runs better next time.

So I won yestaurday no Cobb car with stock turbos has come close to my time in the 1/4 in the us not including the nitrous/meth car that blew his turbos.
Like you said in your other post anything less that a 10.00 would be unacceptable, I was really hopping that your car would run faster. I believe PPR said they did 40 dyno pulls to get ready so they were on point.
Anyways Im done. all these cars are really fast Your car is really fast you just need to get the tune right and dialed in I know your car can run 10.0 and maybe faster with the set up you have right now. If you ever need any help with anything when we are at the track or shift sector Ill be there and I know you would help me out. Im sure both our cars will be faster at the Next shift sector see you then.
Cheers

Embarrassed with a 10.08 at 139mph? I am not at all.
I haven't been posting here as I am trying to enjoy my one day off I guess I need to get caught up. Your car ran great yesterday no doubt. I am going to enjoy my Sunday as I don't think this whole thing is liable to end anytime soon haha.
Cheers guys.

Did you loose your top 3 time slips from Saturday? Cause I'm pretty sure I would have beat you 2 out 3 times. Yea I'm sure I'm gonna lose some and hopefully I win some. have a great Christmas and will see you next year.

Turbo Mike, A guy thats been racing 800+ whp cars and winning with these platforms since the 90's once told me, "Bro... You know what? These guys are gonna make me mad and then ill show up with something that destroys them" Lol, I now know what he meant.
It never ends.....

Great times Mark!! Glad to see the car is running strong!
Those times are seriously awesome considering you basically have two bolt-on mods and a tune (exhaust, IC's, and tune)!! Not to mention the consistency of running back to back times so close to each other, and so close to your results from a week ago.
It's a true testament to the power, consistency, and reliability of the GIAC software!

My GIAC tuned champion modified car has 11,000 miles on it and has been bulletproof. It took me coast to coast more than 3000 miles on goldrush rally without a single problem. And that was with four hours of hard-core dragstrip racing in the burning 100 degree summer heat in Albuquerque and then 4 20 minute hot sessions at circuit of the Americas tracking the car.
Very satisfied with my tune, intercoolers and exhaust
Mark only one thing is getting you another 100 bhp. Bigger turbos. (Or meth, C16 and nitrous if you want to incinerate your turbos).

One thing you guys all need to do is a couple of track days with some GT3 and GT3 RS s
and see their faces in your rear view mirrors as you pull away.
GIAC and Champion, my car is running Flawless.
I guess i have to buy a pair of Micky Thompson's for Jan 17th for Streetcardrags.com
Champion, I will need the y pipe for this.
