Not bad from ( GTR ) best rolling speed..With better shifting he could beat the GTR IMO!

 

Close race! Is that the same bbi car that took 2nd at the airstrip event? Any other race vids from the event this past weekend?

 

The turbo is actually catching up in both videos. Not a bad performance given the fact that the GTR has a PDK type shifter. Both cars are fast as hell. Props to the GTR it won.

His fixed wing looks pretty cool anyone got pics? Or is it just the 2nd wing removed (and possibly the holes filled in).

 

The transmission in the GTR gave it the edge. That 996 is a beast.

 

Shift-s3ctor Jason and Ryan once again put together an exciting event! Props to both cars they ran real strong even at the high elevation of 2300-ft! I agree that tranny is quick... It gains a half-car each shift.

 

thanks sid, it was a great time and good seeing you as always. you need to get your 996 on the same level as tito's!

i'm the driver of the GT-R and i think that this 996 has a better top-end. however, i am very proud with how my car performed (tuning was completed few days before), especially with a passenger and full weight. my 997tt feels like a carrera s in comparison to the gt-r (power-wise of course)
the tranmission defnitely makes the gtr what it is; huge advantage

yumaverick, this is the same 996tt that took 2nd place in the airstrip event.

 

Is that same setup?

Oh ok, I was thinking it was, theirs not too many silver 996tt that fast running around cali

My buddy Sam(VegasGTR) has a very similar set up as you Nico he runs his off of E85 I'm gonna try and talk him into coming out to the next airstrip event. I believe he is making 943WHP with his car. It's def the fastest car I've ever been in

Congrats on the good finish though, car looked strong!

 

yup, these are the same turbos i have on my car.
yes i know sam! he's a great guy. we exchange text messages now and then. in fact he texted me after he saw the video.
i'm trying to find a vbox so i can get my 60-130 time. we've both been eager to find out what it is. i think our cars are very similar, and with a set-up so identical, it all comes down to the tuning. his car is a rocket no doubt. to pull off the times he does in that vegas altitude is ridiculous

 

The fact that it weighs 4100-4200 lbs with driver and passenger surely negated that edge.

 

Did u jumped earlier? or u pulled him?

 

Betim, it was good seeing you again. i don't think anyone could have driven that 996 better than you. thanks for hanging out and also driving tito's car.

just want to confirm that betim did not jump on these runs shown. there was one where he did and he beat the gtr (i also was not driving the GTR on the two fly-by videos.... good friend of mine was). i pushed record too late and missed that run.

 

is there a detailed mod list on that 996tt?

 

It's fine I'd rather enjoy my popcorn and soda and the scenery...Shift-S3ctor gals weren't too bad either. This is one of them...Marissa Hiroko

 

Both cars look pretty evenly matched, good races.
