Latest News 996TT Shootout-Protomotive Wins!

Just got off the phone with european car.
They called to congratulate us, Protomotive, for winning overall by a wide margin.
There was a lot of information passed back and forth on this board, so I figured I should set all the records straight
Thanks to all for attending. It was a lot of fun.

Now, for the next event

All right, I am going to toot my own horn. This is a quote from me when the data was streaming in:

"If Tyson in fact ran 1.2 boost, he kicked but yesterday. "

I'll bet that is what the mag is gonna say. That kind of power at only 1.2 bar is truly kickin but! Congratualtions!

Wow, they must've based this decision by 1/4 mile then.

Congrats.

Blunt - no, that was the point of my post. Not only did it win the 1/4, but it dominated the dyno. Others were running .2 or higher boost than him which is worth about 60hp. His car flat cranked (pun fully intended)! With a stinking air dam for some downforce he may have done much better at the track also.
