I bet people are going to start packing intercoolers in ice after we hear back from this guy.

 

That boy ain't playin

 

wait ur not suppose to pack them in ice...DAM IT .. I knew something was wrong...

 

It's definately attainable although there are a lot of questions...
Car could be set up for RWD and have a good set of tires. The suspension should be good enough to get the car a mid to low 1.4x 60'. I've seen Sharkster 60' in the low 1.6x range and that was on ****ty tires and a ton of camber. Car could have had power problems up top resulting in poor mph..

or

This is the internet. It's pretty easy to make yourself look like a rich playboy with every car imaginable in your stable. Wasn't there some guy on lambo-power that pretended he had all kinds of exotics, was a moderator on the site, people would swing from his you know what, and later it was found that he was a 14 year old kid having some fun??

In other words who knows, it's the internet and I have a bridge for sale.

 

Red C5 !!! That i not the case with this guy. He is for real !!!!!

Scott, He accepted the invitation to join this forum and obtained the " JDRCT" as His handle. That's the name of His racing team. He is awaiting authorization to post and answer all your guys questions.

I believe that car can do those times if he gutted it out and took off about 3-400 pounds. I saw a 930 old school turbo in the low 10's 7 or 8 years ago at Englishtown!!
I think hes telling the truth and might have had a run at that time. You gotta remember something; If you drop the clutch just right with that car lightened up you will have a fast as hell run with a low trap speed..

 

Is this the track were the run would have been performed?

It looks to be a very low elevation with high presure. Today the Barometer is 30 +.

I am confident that a 996TT can run a 9 second 1/4 mile, and may already have done so. That being said, there is info on this particular Drag Time page that doesn't make sense to me.

Craig

 

Exactly.. He might be very credible indeed, BUT, with the modifications listed it is highly unbelieveable at the same time with no other info. I mean Alex is at that point, and his mod list would take up the whole page!

 

I grew up going to events at Salinas PR. Very low elevation indeed.

 

interesting so far...lets see if the man himself can shed some light

 

I am informed that the car is an EVOMS GT700, and it was not designed/tuned to run 1.8+ bar. Nevertheless, given that other GT700s running MUCH less boost have run 10s, I guess it might be possible for a GT700 to break into the 9s with a wicked launch and 1.8+ bar of boost. However, I would not expect the engine/rods/head gasket/etc. to hold together very long at that boost level.

Craig

 

Craig,
Do we know if its a 2wd conversion or AWD?

 

I do not know.

Craig

 

I am not a believer in the GT700 9 second concept.

I hope this guy can shed some light.

Craig, your car has the potential to be a 9 second car but it is
so far past a GT700 that it is not even comparable.

I am waiting with anxious ears/eyes on this one...
