Default 9.15 @ 165 mph......

Looks like Eddie is back at it...

MIR Raceway 7/29/2012....

His Carrera moves out.......It keeps impressing me more and more.......

Does some nice wheel stands going through the gears......Our 964's are nice/well built cars......

Enjoy the video...

yeah that second and third gear wheel stand....

Not quite as fast as a 935/76 which did 8.90s in the 1970s featured in R&T 1976.

That was 1 and half bar of boost 630 and about 2500# it's the weight. I think I saw on Pelican Eric's car weighs almost 3000#

Are those 993 fenders up front? Or something custom he built for more aerodynamics (he's hitting 236 mph on the mile!)

I knew it was Eddie Bello from the title of this thread. I used to see him popping wheelies at MIR and Englishtown years ago. Now that I think of it, it had to be 97 or 98 when I was going. Damn time flies and so does Eddie B.

I believe that's the same car featured in excellence a few years ago, and that he fitted 997 Fenders.

Eddie's 964 is a street car. the 935/76, not so much.

There comes a point in all of our lives when we have to give credit where it is do and this is one of them. Its a great accomplishment for Eddie as well as all of us PCAR owners. Job well done CONGRATS EDDIE.

I was only fortunate enought to see him once at Raceway Park when I was running the Mustang vs Grand National shootouts.

Eddie has already hit over 170mph through the traps. 8.9's are easily in his future. This run was done on a 100 degree day. Wait until the temps drop a little bit in Florida and he takes some more runs this Fall.

I'll let you guys guess where he got the gears and differential that put his 1200whp to the ground...



Quick Reply: 9.15 @ 165 mph......
