Garrett,

Are you doing the same cage as me (RS with the extra cross-brace) or going with the Clubsport one?

And this time, you are not stealing my cage! I still haven't gotten my Porsche Motorsport toe links that you took.

As for engine tuning... I am going to go a different route... I'll give you a hint... it barks quite loud... Ruf Ruf

Wait til you see when the suspension finally gets done... I had to do something to one up your car! It will make you **** your pants...

Yes, but it's not done yet, so I'll keep quiet about mine. Also, you will never see a time slip, so I will have no proof.

It's all about lap times!

Just the rear section of the clubsport bar. Every week I have to look at that cage and drool! Did you notice it was missing?

I didn't steal them, Tom installed them on the wrong car by mistake.

Lapis Blue and Black look the same in the dark.

OK... driving over to Lucent right now to go track down that cage...

Funny enough, my old Protomotive 996 Turbo was Lapis blue also... maybe Tom thought I bought the car back and accidentally put them on the wrong car.

Have you stopped by Lucent lately and looked in my suspension goodie box? Have Arling show you my hollow magnesium carriers!

More importantly if we want to compare horses and not driver skills, you need to correct for your faster 60ft of about -0.3 seconds (-0.6 seconds approx. in the quartermile), then the comparable time is 10.1s - 0.6s = 9.5s for the EDO vs. 10.7s
While we are correcting Jean, let's correct for the poor atmospheric conditions that I ran in when I got the 10.8, to compare apples to apples, my corrected time was 10.1 seconds, I'm sure they're not doing their runs in 95f heat. Also, I've got proof of my time from a well trusted, calibrated, non-biased source, an NHRA time clock. I'm not trying to take anything away from that car, for Christ sakes, it's a friggin full blown race car, I hope it would be faster than my street driven, license plated daily driver.

Hell, I think it's really cool that you guys are even comparing my fully appointed street car to a full blown race car in terms of performance
