996TT Runs a 187.6MPH Standing Half Mile
 
25 Attachment(s)
I took the car to the Houston Half Mile event last weekend held at Ellington Field. I wanted to try to run 185+ (Previous best from the last event was 174mph). The car ran strong during the three attempts. The first shake down run was 177mph with slow roll out. The second was a strong launch and ran 187.6 and the third run I attempted to shift to 6th to try for a bigger speed but ended up running another 177mph.

Stats from the 187mph run:
1/4 Mile 10.4 seconds @ 149.6mph
1/2 Mile 15.7 seconds @ 187.6mph

0-60 3.2 seconds
0-100 5.99 seconds
60-130 5.09 seconds (2 shifts)
100-150 4.40 seconds

That's a solid time. There is a half-mile event here in Chicago in two weeks. I hope it's half as good as that event looked.
