Hats off guys, that's a seriously impressive build.


Nice to see that level of detail and planning put into the bottom end and head work. Well done!

Glad to see there is this level of builds going on for the 991 market. Will be interesting to see where this goes.

Thank you! This build was carefully thought out in collaboration between Cicio and myself. I learned a lot and there is stuff I'll never understand. However, I'm extreamly happy with the professionalism and patience that Topspeed has with me. Many custom tricks used on the car from all the experiance running GTR's!!! Its going to get faster......and still running PDK!!!!!

Things just got REAL for this platform in North America!!

Congrats TSM!

Congrats! I wonder if this technology will be transferable to the 992 platform?

Time will tell. I'm sure even if there are some slight modifications needed that it will be possible.

Are you going to run it in the 1/4 mile or strictly a half-mile racer? Awesome results, you have set the bar high!

We are 100% going to drag race the car however I feel it’s a bigger risk to the trans than half mile racing and I really really want the half mile world record before taking that risk.

So after we go 200 in the half we will attack the drag strip! :)

What is the 1/2 mile record for a 991 I'm pretty sure you and Jeff already have it

World wide ES went 200 on the dot at a half mile in the Middle East. I'm not sure which one but that is the benchmark right now for me.

Not to mention I just want to go 200 in the half! LOL

im pretty sure they went 200 but I don't know if that was the 991 with a metzger motor in it?

The fake 991 with the Metzger engine and sequential trans went 219mph I believe. It was that same event that the actual 991 went 200.xx mph

The 997 engine obviously had a lot more development time as well as not being direct injected and not having the PDK limitation. Awesome accomplishment by them but not what I'm aiming for.
