Todd, you're a looser torque converter away from 9s.

I think it's been doing that since the TCU flash. It used to be a lazy 1-2 shift. It was traded for a lazy 3-4 shift. If I recall, Todd posted a video of his Pbox during a run, that shows the car STILL accelerating through that slip.

Who says Porsche's have useless cup holders? I wonder if a passenger could even reach that cup under full acceleration.

We should be able to source one out here and have the car back up and running for the mile. We appreciate the offer, if we need one we'll get in contact with you.

They maybe the most uneventful, easiest looking 10.5x I have ever seen.
