I just read all 44 pages.....it took a while, good thing I am retired and can afford the time!David and Tym, congratulations that is one VERY impressive car.I am sure the work was long and hard but in the end it was obviously worth it. I have to admit I was not a real big fan of the 997 until i saw the potential of the car.I have a few 996 TT's and may be moving one to make room for a 997.Seriously that is a big accomplishment for the Porsche community!

According to the gentleman that drove the car, it was putting down about 1250rwhp all-boost on the record run.
