Default Texas Mile March 11

Kevin, my co-driver at the Texas Mile, found this on YouTube from Japanese Speed Channel. My footage was shot on Saturday morning, my first run of the day. The zoom in on the Advan tires was done because Yokohama is a sponsor for Japanese Speed Channel.
Bonzai!

BTW, the Goliad Airfield was commandered by the Navy and is no longer open for the public. So the record book was closed there and the Texas Mile has moved to the industrial park/airfield in Beeville, Tx. Even though I didn't get the world record for my class, I do hold the record for my class and 928's at the Original Texas Mile at Goliad.

Keep up the good work Ed!
Btw, what would a stock S4 do in the mile?

Great job Dr. Ed!

Your 928 looks and sounds awesome!

It looks like it has a 928 SP blower on it, correct? Like the gold NASA foil on the intakes.

Kind regards,

ISpeed- I don't know, you should come out and try it, there's 3 times now...March, Memorial Day weekend, and October.
Alex- I'd like to, I finally sorted the blow by issue out so I can run the 10 lb. pulley without exsanguinating all the crankcase oil.
Constantine- Yes its the SP Blower, because it was DR's Euro.

Glad you liked the Video.
