VR is there, I don't know if he has run yet. He didnt run yesterday because he has a hole in one of his rears.

They are putting the 996TT on the trailer as they more than surpassed their goal and will now be focusing on the 997TT. Stay tuned to the threads for more updates.

Yep, Supercars Exposed is there. It did well over 150 in the 1/4 trap GPS. Stay tuned for some more records being broken once the car gets back to NY.

very cool. I hope they do a good piece on the cars. I wonder if tanner is driving one of the faster cars out there. I know it's his job to con rides..

wish I had that job.

well if he didn't have a hole in his rear wouldn't he need to be carrying a Collostomy bag? My question is...he's got more than one?!?!?!

Congratulations Joe 231.4, WOW that is amazing! How much was left in the car? or did you pretty much go ***** out this time with the boost? When you hit the mile mark, was the car still pulling pretty hard or were you about topped out? Also, I'm curious, did you tape up the seems for this run? Like someone else mentioned at those speeds, drag is very inhibiting and you could could very well pick up an extra .5 to 1.5 mph most likely, maybe even more. Anyway, Congratulations on the new crown as Fastest road Porsche in the mile of all time!!!!
