Finally ran a 9 sec 1/4 mile

My first time to the track with the By-Design stage 4+ Meth, had some figuring to do in terms of getting the R888's to hook proper which included cleaning off the tires, but once i figured out what they liked, the 3 passes after were all decent 60ft and 9 second 1/4 miles , all in the 141-143 mph range. Sam was there every pass working with me figuring out what the car wanted. I did show up with over 3/4 tank (unfortunately the 125 mile drive only burned 1/4 tank) and i did have 2 child seats in the back . These passes were made with 93 octane I am very happy with the results and can not thank Sam enough, as well watching Mark's car wheel stand was insane. Here is a video of 9.80 @ 141 taken by Sam.

These things are really opening up on VTG with more development. Best part was hanging out together and sharing an awesome day brother. It was a pleasure form day 1 and I am looking forward to more awesome events we can all enjoy together.
agreed, thanks again dude!

how does this car compare to your 997 on ethanol? (trying to decide to go E85 or get a 991 turbo)

man.. i would never go back. without flex fuel setup i just wouldnt do that again. this car is just so much more refined in every way, but then again i didnt have a PDK 997 either. power wise its faster for sure than the e85 and 63's i had.
