Wanted to post this to show the consistency of how the car performed all day to provide some perspective beyond the video:

Another good one! Fun to watch.

I am signed up for the Midwest NFZ on 5/21. Looking forward to it! I added red stripes to my car, so I expect at least another 40 HP and 10-12 MPH top speed

Thanks for posting!

i really can't wrap my head around how fast your car is. My GTR makes 1100whp all day and for some reason i just assume you'd beat me in a race like this when my car should trap in the 190s....

Thx guys.


Don't let me have all the fun. This package (except the suspension) can be replicated by anyone with minimal costs.

I met the owner of the 996 - very cool guy. Not Orbell.


He was having issues with his car after the shift. There would be no power for a moment. Obviously needs to be sorted. But it's a sick car for sure.

Hey Bobby - shift issues. That car would have smoked me from a roll when it gets squared away.

Most of these GTR's would destroy my car in different conditions. If your GTR had slicks and a prepped track I'm guessing it could cut a 1.3-1.4 60-foot times and run in the 8's. The 1,600 wheel GTR with the parachute is shooting for 7's this Saturday at Famoso.


What gives my car the advantage is the launch surface. It has dust and rocks and the airport doesn't allow burnouts. So the high HP GTRs have to just roll-on and of course with that much power the turbos are huge and take a long time to spool. That's enough time for me to build a large enough lead to win sometimes.
