You did in the post above. You quoted 2 miles and probably more, which leads one to believe it was maybe 2.5 miles or so. Given my experience with high speed runs, I find it hard to believe you were able to achieve this speed in that distance, especially since you weren't rushing to get there by your own admission. At 200 mph you cover a mile in under 20 seconds, so by not rushing, and given the time it takes to get from 200 to 223, that leads me to believe you would have had to cover at least 5 miles in this run. It just doesn't add up.
As I previously posted, I do believe your car could be capable of this top speed. I probably have similar HP numbers and I think that's probably about the top speed my car could hit given enough time/distance. But your posts just haven't made sense since there's no way you did this in 2-3 miles while you were sitting at 200 mph to test the stability.

Dont try to make sense of a fools rant. He is the self proclaimed master of anything piston driven. No 60-130 is even posted with out a vbox file backing it up. I believe the vbox uses 12 satellites with a external antenna vrs the 3-4 your handheld (reads through your roof?) unit uses? you may be a cool guy in person but I am not sure many will try to find out with the way you post. You are one tool I have no use for. Waiting for my neg reps......

Based on what you posted johnspeed as far as mods, I don't see how this car could hit that speed on a 2 mile runway. I'm not saying it's impossible for the car to reach that as a top speed, but I don't see how it could reach that speed and stop in 2 miles.
I find it very strange that a person doesn't want to list out their mods when everybody asks for them. That's a perfectly reasonable, normal, and in fact the most common request we all see on here since that's what all of us other modders want to know about each other's cars!
Where did you ever get that idea?
All you need to do is look at any 996 NA car, which all have ~300 HP, and none of them are capable of getting anywhere close to 200. They're all drag limited to about 175...
Everybody knows they add 30 HP and 10 MPH to your top speed.

I had to really hold the steering wheel so I would be prepared for anything.
I thought it was because I had a TechArt whale tail on it,,it did look cool though...

Seriously John, how many different threads do you want to continue this in!
And BTW I never did get mad, I just said I was not going to do a complete inventory of all my mods. You are the one that got bent out of shape about that as if it would be some kind of proof to you as to your implications of the validity of my claims of hitting 223.
John you are carrying out this same conversations in several different threads over and over again; get over it. You do not have to believe me or even like me, trust me I am OK with that. In one of your private messages you did state it was water under the bridge yet a day later the banter continues..... The same sentiments goes towards Tim.

Where did I ever say that ??..NO WHERE..
There are others on here with there thoughts about it also but you seem to direct it all towards me?
Are you really reading what is said in these posts or dwelling on a certain topic with me for some other reason?
As I said before,several times,all I wanted to know was your mods.And when I found them out you went off on me and gave me a negative rep and commented I was a troll on my rep..
Where was my disbelief after I found out your mods..NO WHERE..
I did say it was water under the bridge in the post and I guess when the other member commented on his disbelieve you attacked me now,again..
