Hi guys. It was awesome meeting everyone down at the Mile. Now that I am no longer a Texas Mile virgin, I can say now that I have MAD repect for you guys going fast (over 200). My first run ever in my car (I made 10 runs over the weekend) held some apprehension as I approached the 1-mile marker and saw those cones coming VERY fast!!! To be honest, I ALMOST let off before the mile marker!!! After some shake downs to figure out launching and shfting, I did manage a 195 and backed it up with a 194. Thanks to Joe and Marty for their onsite advice, helping me to achieve these goals.
As most know my car only has a very basic 18g kit: K4/18g's, exhaust, injectors, 5bar, meth kit and a custom EPL tune. I have all stock piping, airbox, filter and stock intercoolers. It is also very light, weighing in around 3095 empty and 3290 with me in it. I will also add that my intake air temps were consistantly dropping 10-15 degrees over the course of the runs. Gotta love Meth. Thanks again for the opportunity to meet all you great guys and to put faces with posts!!!

David, thanks. I'm really excited about the car!
I'm actually targeting the best acceleration numbers for a stock 996 motor. But what I run is what I run.
As far as more ponies, I'm not exactly sure how much more I'll need yet. I still need to drive the car before I can figure that out. Regardless, there are still a few easy things I can do to get more ponies out of her.
Thanks again, bro.
