Had a chance to run a nicely modded Porsche 996TT, very cool owner as well. We will do a rematch soon! Enjoy!

nice run as usual...
your graph showing almost no loss of speed between gear change was probably only time i regret getting 6mt...

btw is that snow in Cali???

 

nice
was expecting it to be closer at the start

 

Thanks man, no snow just some nice Mexico fog.

 

We'll do a rematch, I was in my sweet spot, he had some lag, next time we will start a little faster so he can build boost sooner.

 

I'm sorry but that video was fail........why would you post up a race vs a car that obviously missed a gear and reacted to the horn late?

Rematch is a must!

 

LOL you must be kidding. That car got walked even if he missed 4th gear he obviously got walked he wasn't going to make a comeback sorry. I don't buy that he misshifted anyway cause if he really did he would have fell back further. Also I dont see how you claim he reacted late why because the M3 got a jump? How bout instant throttle response vs turbo lag ever thought of that?

 

Dude, you're wasting your time trying to convince me otherwise! Am I not allowed to post my opinion regarding the video unless it's favorible?

........fanboys off and running!


besides what do you care, it's not your car or video!

 

Only one we were able to do, but we ran from 30mph, the owner stated that it wouldn't have mattered in that run that up to that point it's a legit pull, but I hear you, we will do a rematch. Next time I'll lose the passenger!

I think the next run will be closer if we start at a little bit higher speed.

 

nice work drew.

 

agreed! Nice as usually Drew!

 

Wonder how it would do up against a 997TT with software/exhaust

 

Unless there is something wrong with the 996TT in the video (or the driver), that 996 would be faster than a 997TT with exhaust and software.

I'd actually like to see a race where the driver didn't miss 4th. I'm a big fan of Drew's M3, but a 996TT with those should mods have pulled easily on the M3...unless he has a boost leak or some other issue going on. It seemed really down on power. That car should be in the 6's or 7's 60-130.

 

How much power do you think that 996TT is putting out? I did miss the part of the upgraded tial turbos but with APR Software/Exhaust it should put down over 600hp and almost 700 ft lbs on 100 oct.

 

Ya, around that or more. Heck my old car with only K24/18Gs made 600 rwhp and ran 10.65 @ 136 at 1.3 BAR. Those A28's should be making more than that.

Honestly, something is wrong with that 996TT. It should be a 135 mph car, easy.
