Ran against a few Mcl, R8, Huracan. Will try and post vids. You should have seen the owners face when I told him just mild bolt ons and manual v their robots
Yes it was, but it was originally debuted at the LA Auto Show January 1998. Still going strong today.
Wow! It has been that many years! I tried for Riddler and AMBR and never made it so I used to know most cars. Yours was different so I remember it. The first with a Lexus that’s why. I still have a 32 and 33 ‘3W coupes.

Nice. Please post a video. Would love to hear more about this. What do you have done to the car?
Just GT2 hybrid VTGS and race fuel mixed with pump and a proto/9e tune. 0-300kph in circa 22 secs on a cold day. Europipe 2. You don't really need anything else other than better coolers. Run 680bhp at crank in road use and circa 720bhp with race map for higher octane MS109/pump 50/50 mix.
Here's an old one but cars even quicker now she has do88 big pack coolers. Still waiting for the new vids. Not easy to get these big VTG cars to run as well as this over 1.5 mile high speed runs repeatable all day. I never kill it at launch or up to 100mph as I'm in a manual and do not want to blow up gearbox or clutch. Huracan 640bhp with remap and decat.
Started my tour back home today. Decided to make it a "monumental" journey. Started with a good bye to our cousin. Flowerpot....Really? Original Symons oiler and a couple of diamonds. Our provincial heritage. Truly a monumental butcher shop in Regina, SK. The original prairie grand tour.
Java for the road
Had an awesome tour home. This is truly a tour beast...... with a wild side, thanks to Kevin (Ultimate Motorwerks ECU/TCU tune), Stef (Europipe) and Tom (DSC).
Looks like a fun trip as some of the names and pictures bring back memories - I'm originally from SK living in both Regina and Watrous!
Interested to hear about the UMW tune and drivability as I've already got the other two items you mention.
Kevin was awesome to work with on these tunes. We started with the PDK tune. This tune gave an enhanced daily drive with more responsive shifts, more like the 991.2 PDK in feel. Under some throttle it really shines. The increased clutch pack pressure gives a firm quick shift. I would definitely recommend this PDK tune with any increase in horsepower. The added clutch pressures will hold the PDK transmission together under the higher torque. We moved onto the ECU tune after this. Kevin and I discussed my goals and the available fuel types I had to work with. I did some datalogs at the 1/4 mile track here and sent them off to Kevin. The updates to the ECU are pretty straight forward to implement. The tune I have is a blast. The turbos are spooling earlier with a very smooth power delivery. IM me if you would like to discuss this in more detail. Kevin, Stef and Tom have been amazing to work with this spring as I went through the updates.
