185 for Jean and a 997 w/ just a tune and exhaust is awesome. Hey Marty, check out my updated sig.

No. SVS wasn't even there. The only TT Viper there was an '02 GTS...with full interior, stereo, A/C and a 4 pt. rollbar. The same one that toyed with the Carerra GT on the airstrip last year. It was Ricky's first time at the mile, and he only made one pass. He was topped-out and out of gear by the 3/4 mark. He snapped his 2.73 gears at TX2k8 last weekend and had to settle with running the stock 3.08's. Congrats to the shop car Supra's.

Excellent Peter, I was wondering about that.

Thanks for the correction Hillywood!

Which color combo Viper was this that ran 215?
Was this car at TX2K8?

Good luck in Dallas this spring.

Marty the car Kelly is referring to is Gray/Purple and is the GTS TT car that was at TX2K8. I saw him running 155 mph or so on drag radials consistenly at TX2K8. It's a badass car!

Here is a vid of SW piloting the Supra to 229.7 mph. The scary thing is that this was with no NOS and at 32 psi. They have another 10 psi and NOS but didn't get a chance to run it that way. Congrats to ALL competitors!

RIGHT CLICK SAVE AS please

Porschesolution is infamous around these parts

Correct, Chris told me last night that a freak wastegate connection prohibited them from running any more boost...chit, that car makes nearly 1600rwhp on full tilt: 32psi is pretty darn tame.

Great for them though, wish I had known they were running, I'd have gone. Pooh.

Nice job to SW, by the way. He is a true gentleman and a true driver (of all events!)

Hopefully the official #'s will get compiled and posted soon. I think most of the numbers posted so far are correct but some are not (timing station girl is my buddie's GF). I ran a 185.8 with the new AWE 700 997tt kit. The conditions weren't great - early fog and mist keeping the early track a bit loose, the headwind that was strong enough to knock over the mile marker twice, and like a dumbass I left the PSM on which killed my launch (yeah, I suck!). It was great seeing everyone there and some of the trick cars and bikes (turbine powered jet-bike!!). It was also watching the video crew helo helplessly trying to keep up with VR's CGT!!

Vid of my run here

0-300 driftbox data (ugly 1st gear!)
