I’ve not yet tried a full 1/4 test from a dig. I’m think my 135-136+ will be close from those rolls. It’s possible it’ll be slightly higher, if I can get a good solid dig launch without too much disruption from cold tires.
Steve Cole - I know you cars 132 and especially that 135 has been debated several times. Were either of those GSP device ot track equipment numbers? i still think 135 is a tad bit of a stretch given stock car power (unless maybe a Huge tail wind). No offense meant. But hey, if it’s legit, then that’s awesome.
As for the progress of the Black 991.2, my car would seem to parallel it, especially if my car responds to the race gas tune with anywhere near 138 to 139 in the quarter.

Good progress it seems... I think you’d be very close to that car in the video by the pulls you’ve already made. Another comparative was my stock Mclaren traps... 108-109mph through the 1/8th mile and 135-136ish 1/4 trap speeds. Only reason I bring it up was the hp/wt ratio. My Mclaren’s weighed significantly less than these Turbo Porsche’s and made a bit more power. So my point is you’re making quite a bit of power and it shows with your dragy pulls.
I remember you and I discussed these runs after I had my original boost leak fixed riiiiight after I got this car. I immediately went out to “test” the repair and this was my 1st pull. I knew boost leak was fixed. The car had full air pressure and was stock right down to the valve caps.
That's the money shot. vtknight and nanook are right there also....multiple locations..... A 10.4X at 130.X mph is extremely close to the average bone stock 991.2 TTS driven WFO

One of those guys ran a 10.3x didn’t they? Stock...
Yes. On a prepped track. Would not surprise me if a bone stock 991.2TTS AT -1000DA on a prepped track with DR’s go 10.1 - 10.2
Ah, ok. Yeah, these cars are very quick stock. Looks like Swole has me looking for a new catless exhaust now with his new found powa!! I’m jealous of his 60-130 times.

-1400DA on a prepped track on tires are Hero Runs. I’m guilty of them on other platforms. They are not very helpful or representative. But great for bragging.
Shake the TTS tree on an average day and a good driver on no prep street and a 10.4 at 130 represents.

Fair enough... I wouldn’t disagree with you. In my opinion, these cars are pretty consistent and predictable. I’ve found that I’m usually fastest if I don’t let the car cool down, just go straight to the run. I’ve found that while it allows the heat soak to go away, so do the heat in the tires, and that’s the secret to making quick consistent passes. Tires hooking vs spinning can make or break you run, whether you’re on the street, or a prepped track.

.... yeah no offense 135 is not happening on properly calibrated timing equipment or a 50 mph gust of a tailwind, that's a tuned MPH on a properly calibrated lane. 129-131 is what these things trap stock. we have had .2 cars do as low as 126 stock in the summer heat like the white car that's doing 146 in +1000 DA and -1500DA now. i have seen the slip so i know it's not fiction, but i do know its not accurate.
Yes, I don’t want to have any hard feelings but even the horsepower calculator puts that 135 at a point far past stock horsepower regardless of how generous Porsche was being.
nevertheless, I’m sure his vehicle is one of the stronger stock vehicles out there and great for him.
Nothing to do with my thread but Brooks just ran his 765LT!!!
These thing just **** me off with how quick / fast they are! LOL
Too flashy of a car for me. I’d rather have a full modded 991.2TTS that goes low 9’s and high 8’s (like my boy Dave Briegs!)

Either way, these cars are pretty amazing bone stock for such a nice classy ride.
