Eddie's exploits are indeed epic.

We welcome him again to our pit area when we attend another mile event.

We are currently waiting for good weather here in Florida to make another attempt with the new setup, should be interesting to see what results come out of it. I know the car is already pulling the front tires ( not like the original car) but is a start.

rare911s

Yes the car is 2wd.

One of the new things on the set-up is a custom billet spool courtesy of Guard Transmission LLC, it's the same that I had on my 911 carrera. The thing is not only a beauty but for what we do there's nothing else that comes close to that piece, whether is price, quality or performance.

Hopefully, the weather gets better soon so we can see what she does this time around, hurry up and wait.

Just in case some of you miss some of the videos.


9.29 what's interesting on this video is that the record for the 1/4mile is at 9.16 @ 161mph. This one is 9.29 @ 164.40 mph so I think we are very close.

Unfortunately no the weather has been horrible down here in sunny Florida, we had made 4 attempts and all of them had to be canceled due to the rain or poor track conditions. The car is 100% ready to go. Hopefully very soon we'll have a break and will give her a try.

Trust me when I said that some of us are very eager to get the car to the track..
