may be its your lanching technique ??? From which RPMs do you launch you car ???

 

Ok.. that pic is beautiful.. did you use a lighting setup?

 

BTW, the car that I originally posted this thread about went back to the track and ran an 11.4 @121 stock on street tires (owners second time at the track). The temps were a little cooler the 2nd time but Tips are easy to get down the track. (the dude is a horrible driver on a road course)

 

Sounds good...I wonder what would EVT 700 run at the track with Tips...did anyone run it yet ???

 

I don't think anybody has run one yet.

 

OK ... I'll continue to allow you to make my case for me!

 

I had decent launches but only could get my car to 125mph and without the wind and some better shifting I believe the car could achieve right at 130mph. I find it hard to think a stock TT is going to get to 121mph.

 

GT Rus,

You bring to mind an old saying: "It is better to not say anything and let people wonder if you are an idiot rather than opening your mouth and removing all doubt."

In any event, I am glad to see that you have moved on from the 996 forums to the 997.

 

Think harder, it happened.

 

Several people including mags have gotten 120+ mph from the TT even without the mags that use adjustments. Makes good sense.

This is good to hear, I'd like to see this car at a lower elevation.

 

After doing many runs with my 997 TT with the 690 race fuel I only achieved about 125mph in the 1/4. The wind was blowing and that certainly effected it so I believe the car co do close to 130mph but that is it and I am running that kind of power versus stock. The tiptrontic is certainly easier to launch because you do not have to switch gears. I believe the track is very accurate in terms of timing but we might be comparing different ways to time the 1/4 which could account for some of the variations.

 

There's only way to properly time a 1/4 mile. On a dragstrip.

 

That is where I was doing my runs but I am not sure about other people on this board who post their times and whether it was on a 1/4 mile track with the proper timing equipment.

 

Mario, look at the date of that post

 

Listen man...I will tell this once and for all and I wont respond to your posts anymore...I wanted to stay away from responding you and probably it would be better decision but I will do it last time without any insult from my side...unlike you and try to explain this to you...Pardon Me for my English..it not my native language...

Now you see this topic and you have to make this smart comments...Well I am glad that you in 996 forum as well, please stay there an enjoy yourself !!! Why I moved to 997 forum, cause I've decided to get 997 TT...Simple as that...and I am going to make it really fast but I 1st I want to gather as much information as I can and learn things, consider many otption and then make my final decision...and choose the best route for ME...

If I ask many questions or ask same questions in diff topics...Well I am sorry but I WANT to KNOW things, I want to LEARN and gather info..I wanna hear diff peoples options and thoughts...OK and this is how I do it !!!...If you dont like that and cant say anything smart then dont reply...If you dont want to answer or have nothing to say then just pass...I am not asking for your help...There many other people on this board who can say something usefull...rather then making some stupid comments...whihc are not even relative to this topic...
