Congrats Sean, that time is fantastic! If the engine pops, don't spend 20K on a new one...have a 3.8 built for more.

For the 996 platform, yes. Peter Blach downloaded the file and it was a 5.79. It is being sent to Scott for verification.

As to being crazy (unstable) maybe just a bit. I have been wanting a sub 6 second time for a long time now. I admit that I was risking a $20 plus K engine rebuild to beat your time (5.93). But that is nothing. I am a bit obsessive somethimes when it comes to goals. I risked my life (went straight from the hospital...docs tried to 51/50 me) to a bodybuilding comp one time. On another occasion I fought 2 more matches after having my leg broken in a Grappling tourney. The pisser was I lost in the finals

I am parking the car in the Garage and going to a self help/12 step group tonight, so the world should be safe for a while.
I normally would be speechless, but then again I have met and spent time
with Sean. This seems very logical in Sean's world

The funny thing is that most people would probably read Seans comments and expect to meet some sort of monster. He is by far one of the funniest guys i've met. Get the whole group together and its a good laugh.

I agree, Houston guys (despite the horrible city they live in), are as good as it
gets in the High Perf World. I wish I had video of Me, Paulie, and Sean in Paulie's
wife's Mini, trying to find FATBURGER in College Station, last year...No one could get
a word in edgewise!
