Anyone out there ran their GT2 in the Texas Mile? I have been asked to do it, but this would be the first run an 08 could make. Last event was end of March, and my car just arrived and wasn't going to get pushed that hard. I am wondering how any 996's have done, Turbo's, or anything else.

I will be pushing just over 600 HP when the run hits. I am guessing I might hit 200.

Look up eclou on this forum - he ran his 997 Turbo w/work.

 

Dr joe ran his stage 4(6oohp)GT2 w/race gas at the mile & posted 176mph. So I don't think you will be close to 200mph without at least 750-800hp.

 

I think you will run 184mph.

 

Well, that will give me something to beat. Don't know how I would do it, but at least I can mouthe a little. I wonder if launch control will give me a little more? I am doing a larger intake and some new silicon hoses to help upper end. I'm guessing I hope the 997 GT2 is better than that!

 

you are so wrong...more like 183.897543mph

 

It's 184.1 You didn't give me credit for launch control!

 

I didn't know you were doing the hoses. You'll run 201mph then.

 

That's what she said.

That was a good one.

 

I think you'll be hard pressed to beat 180 mph....

It will surely be a nice comparison with the other cars.
