Both clowns in my opinion Scott. Joe G has proven himself and these two clowns prove they can run.....Their mouths! Rob, you better get your **** togather before we race or else you are going to get assraped.....Again! I can't believe you think you are at the same level as Joe!
Yes, I lost the first race to the Lexus. I did miss shift and that was enough to loose the race. There will be a video of that race and if you watch it I think you will see that I had 2 to 3 car lengths on Lexus. But non the less I lost the race. I do not know the outcome of the race today because I had to come back to Houston. Back it up wanted to keep the car there and use it in their filming of this event. Apparently the cars bluey raced was the black Lambo and the white Mustang both making over 1200 RWHP. If you see the video which I have not, my car apparently beat both of them.
Cheers
Robert

Yes,my car went 224 decellerating(I got out of it due to the heavy cross winds on Fri)as I crossed the mile.I was at 230.7 at 4360 ft mark(no bull!!I will post the driftbox file as soon as I can get it uploaded) with 920 ft of track left.It ran 14.3 sec to 186 mph(300km) with a tire burning 1/8 mile.
The new setup Evoms put together for me is on a totally different level than my previous mile setup.I am going to overlay the driftbox file over my previous mile run so everyone can see how dramatically faster the car is now.

That is insane. forget the chute, you need wings. you were definitely on your way to another record run. Glad you are ok bro, that is really the most important thing, for everyone that did this as well.

Joe,
Your car was nuts and there is no doubt you would have crushed your record. Glad you are ok though. It was nice meeting you hopefully we'll see you back in March. Hope you guys have safe trip back home.

Tom,
Great meeting you too bud. Really enjoyed talking with you and b.s'ing about the cars. I'll be up in your neck of the woods in January. I'll be in touch!

Mad respect to Joe G and Evoms for keeping the title of the world's fastest Porsche in the mile. All the hard work (without cutting corners) pays off. Lot's of trash talking from others, dyno #'s and "call outs" prior to the event and then running like crap, gets no respect though.
One would think that these guys would eventually stop running their mouths, seeing as they can never seem to back up their BS statements.
The unfortunate fact is that the need to "talk ****" is an inherent character flaw in these individuals. A flaw that they will never have any control over.
