Verified and posted. Just pumped out a 4.54 second 60-130 mph pass and a 4.57 on a flater surface to back it up. Started from 3rd gear with 1 shift.
Right when boost hit the torque steer pulled the car into the left lane then shifting into 4th sent sent the car back into the right lane. This was happening somewhat when the car was running in the 5s. Now its even more pronounced. Its a rush trying to keep the car straight when its pulling the way it does. Each and every pass I did, I had to hold the steering wheel tight and fight to keep the car straight.
This car is starting to get scary.
Here is a link to all the info:

Just my luck - I feel like I've made a great improvement in my - YES 60-130 - time and I end up next to a discussion of Keith's new record, less than half my time. That's absolutely incredible - Congratulations, Keith!
I also want to publicly thank Todd - VividRacingTX - for helping me out with my PBox file and taking time to visit with me and show me around his place in Houston. I was on a business trip and didn't have the PBox software, so Todd opened the file on his computer, we looked at the results, and then he helped me send it to Scott for posting. Thanks again Todd, I enjoyed meeting you. (If I did it correctly, I gave you a rep point) The insurance program I told you about is http://pcahpdeins.locktonaffinity.com

I have tech Q for u guys
How much the car weight can shave from the 60-130...Lets say
997 turbo ( which is weight 3,461 lb) made 800awhp and ran 5.5 and a 997 GT2 ( which is 3,200 lb and RWD ) with same mods and same power.
What kind of 60-130 we could see on the 997 GT2?

Running RWD should also help you out - to what extent on the 997s I am not sure. Running AWD compared to RWD makes a difference in the 996tts, but the 997tt has an improved AWD system (from what I have read) so I dont know how much more power you will put down to the pavement on a GT2 as compared to a Turbo. Nevertheless, I think the RWD may help out to some degree as well.

Yes a couple hundred pounds is a couple tenths.

My car went 6.6 before Meth. It went 6.25 after Meth. Then it went 5.99 after 250lb weight loss.

So who is driving the car if you took 250lbs out?
or was that before you were on the Meth???

. My car weighs 3150 without me and about 3330 or so with me in it, both weights with 1/4 tank of fuel. All of my weight loss mods are in the weight loss thread, which you have to hunt for now. The weight loss got me over 2.5 tenths 60-130 ans 3.5 tenths in the 1/4.

During one of my tests a month or so ago, I dialed in a certain boost setting and ran a 5.4x with a person in the car. I dropped them off and came back out 20 minutes later and turned 5.2x. A person does make a difference. Therefore, weight does play an important role in your 60-130 times.
Running RWD should also help you out - to what extent on the 997s I am not sure.

Is that test on 71 or 76R's?
I know from AWD to RWD it would 2-3%
