I own the car now...although I don't think I'll be doing any drag race launches soon. Not unless I figure a way to fix the hole in the block.

12.7 with a 127 trap do not go hand in hand, wheel spin or not. FYI, it takes about 550-600 crank hp (pump gas)in a 996tt with a experienced drag racer to hit 127-128 and I hope nobody believes that they are beating tuned 996tt's with modified street 951's.

Gotta love the stock suspension! Makes me feel seasick. lol Also he didn't get a decent start so if he did 12.7 while bogging, he could have got low 12's easy with a good one.

Better yes but with 117mps he should have been in the mid to low 12's.

I ran 12.7sec. @ almost 109mph in a mildly Sc'd 928. However if he was laggin really bad then it could be possible that he lost a lot of time in the begining of the run and then pulled really hard at the top of the track.
