The RT12 is the Yellowbird, yes?

And of course no sighting of the Tweetybird.

Thanks again.

Sean, tweety was a NO SHOW, just like you!

Todd - you don't need to do anything, I am in Chicago until late Tuesday and when I get home I promise I will verify and graph your times. I just have SOOOOOO many runs to go through to find the best one, it's time consuming, that's all. I give you my word I will get it done by Wednesday morning... It was nice meeting you!

Ben - thanks for coming out, it was nice seeing you again and meeting your friend.

Peter

Peter,

Thanks for posting my graph. You are a hard working man! How is Chicago? I was the only stock TT to run. I wish Tommy or Ben would have made a few passes in their TT's. Looks like mine is for sale now. I am looking for an older 996TT (01-03) now that has been upgraded. As you know mine is a Tip, I want a manual gear box instead. Anybody know of a nice 996TT available right now?

Todd, as you can see by your acceleration curve, the shifts are undiscernable... I wish Tommy and Ben ran too, that would give you an idea of how your car stacks up. I can't wait to see what you buy next!

Sorry I didn't run Peter I just didn't see much point in it with a stock car + exhaust. I'll run soon enough.

Peter,

I take it Shane's Z06 is modded? If so, I'm trying to figure out why he was slower than my stock car. I assume heat/humidity played a huge factor.

Thanks.

Built Z06 motors seem to dyno 30 or so less whp then the stock motors due to heavier internals. We've seen it three times compared to same bolt ons with stock motors.

Wow. So unless you plan on going FI, it sounds like sticking with just bolt-ons is the way to go.

I know that DJ's bolt-on Z is as quick as Paulie's PE 700 GT2, so that should put him in the high 6 second range.

Thanks for the info, Jamie.

DJ's car has intake, headers, cam, exhuast, and tune. His car would be maybe .2 of a second slower than mine depending on conditions (believe it or not, when it is hot out I pull a bit on him...at night, pretty even). And DJ is possibly the fastest shifter on the board.

Amazing for only 540 rwhp. But again dynos vary and the vette is a very light car.
