Here's an interesting picture of what Porsche did with the 924 Carrera GTP back in the day. Those axles look pretty strong! Does anyone know if the 915 transaxle is stronger than our audi unit? That G31 trans is identical internally, besides the gear ratios.

Until I see some slips or vids. I doubt it Duke. When I first started this list I did a retarded amount of research. Most 11sec claims-and there were many- were heresay, and bad -incorrect memories. for example- One was an engine that was stupid powerful-but was one of doom cars. (traced back from story to story that started out as "a buddy's" car) - they weren't street cars...almost ridiculous as I followed it back. Another "11 sec" car was traced back-by me- to a car that ran 111mph and the guy mistook the speed as the time. I saw examples of this internet grape vine over and over.
I'm not naysaying so that I can be "the" one in the elevens. But because I'm just tired of all the mis info.
So, Duke, with no disrespect whatsoever meant towards you. If you have firsthand proof, pictures, video. then please post. Otherwise if anyone doesn't have something to back it up, its useless internet banter and needs to be left out. -
I understand this as my opinion only, and not anything I see as law or rules, and rarely, I do see exceptions.

But I've seen a scanned slip, I'll see if I can dig it out

I just built my car and ran a 13.1 at 110, I couldn't hook up for the life of me. I then noticed a new noise coming from the rear end and the next day I found out what it was. I was racing a mustang and when I shifted into second POP! I had no gears, I managed to completly crack the rear bellhousing all the way through. It was just floating on the torque tube. I also shattered the drive shaft at the splines. I've now installed a solid trans mount but I also want to brace the transaxle to the torque tube so that it wont try to rotate upwards.

I've just noticed you updated your time yesterday to UNDER 12 SECONDS 
Seriously well done mate
Myself and another UK 951 owner are planning to hit a drag strip near us in October. It's the first time either of us have done the straight line thing but we are both looking forward to how we compare. Slips will be scanned for you

Actually I ran that time almost exactly One year ago. I just updated JasonLP's time.
Thank you though!
Good luck and have fun.

Haha not quite but I think I'm good for #12
Without going into specifics, there was A LOT left on the table. The 60ft is deceiving, the Mustang actually got ahead for a while before the 330' while.
