Good times Mark, I did not expect any less, and with a legitimate 2 shifts run. I am surprised at the grip, no wheelspin. Was this at the drag strip?
KPG yes I am impressed, good improvement

Can you please try to get these lines in the right place.
Thanks

Jean, please tell Mark to slow down and then the lines will be fine....The data is good, but the presentation is lacking. Kevin

Ill be installing taller tires and the rev will be bumped 200 more for the run ...

MOD500 paid a visit today having just picked his freshly valeted beast up from the workshop.
We wanted to try a 60-130 run so he brimmed the fuel tank and we stuck it on the scales


Thats 3380lbs and adding the two of us put the test weight at 1708kg/3765lbs and 11DegC/52DegF
So running heavy MOD did the business and even with a crappy 0.8s first gear change managed a respectable 9.51s run - without a passenger and with decent changes there is at least half a second to come off this number IMO

Some memento pics

Most likely more than a half a second. Someone sent me some 60-130 off his bone stock 06 Z06 and he did 2 runs solo and 1 run with a passenger. He even sent the videos of the runs so I could see how many people were in the car. His solo runs were 8.5 and 8.6.... his run with a guest was 9.1... .5 sec for just a passenger.. All shifts were the same on all the runs and shift time was pretty close across the runs... I was surprised... no info on the passengers weight. Kevin

KPG your sense of humour is improving, I almost smiled this time, just like your skills with the datalogger, but keep trying

Am very happy with the 9.5 sec run, to get 9 or under sans passenger and with slicker shifting would be awesome Thanks alot TB

Post testing I had the treat of having a drive in TB's car, and can confirm it is completely bonkers and the fastest thing I have ever driven

Congrats Mark, you didn't even have lightning fast shifts. Check out that flat Long G curve across the gears, your high Rev limiter paid its dues, it's a nuclear setup! I wish you had done it on an AX22 we could have dissecated it. I would think this is the record for a street legal Porsche anywhere unless I am mistaken. And no gearless cr@p, not even one, but two gear changes . A taller tire alone would drop you by 1/2 second, but then it would not be comparable to other numbers and magazines, keep it this way. Outstanding.
