Cool...thanks Scott. Very excited and curious to here your results. Can you lend any creedance to the rumors (not necessarily here on 6speed) about the newer GTR blocks cracking?

Until a Switzer built motor cracks, I don't think we can conclude that an inherent weakness exists.

A couple blocks have cracked at the 1100+ awhp level, but they were both sleeved, running different hardware and tuning, and a lot of torque relative to HP. My Switzer motor is not sleeved and will keep the TQ low so we'll see how it goes.

Just took my '11 Turbo S up to Friday Test and Tune at Route 66 Raceway. My first time at a drag strip; had a ball. It was about 90degF and humid. My car has about 7,500 miles on it and is probably a little slower than stock as I've replaced the PCCB rotors with Brembo steel rotors. Running Yokohama AD08 street tires my first and fastest run was 11.13s (see timeslip - I'm #168)

What made you decide to switch rotors?

PyroKerry is your nice looking white TURBO S stock ?? it's a great number for 1/4 mile.
Did you wait until the light was green to start power braking it?
