Good stuff Adam! Love your vids brother, and always great to see you! I was surprised at how well you pulled the S/C M3's, when I had my VT625 I pulled a tuned 997 PDK with the same tune, looks like they've improved on that tune quite a bit.

FWIW, The VT3 was running ~11-12psi not 13, the bigger pulley this time, and HFC's and the stock muffler, so I'm not at 680WHP in that run, probably around 640whp. Also sadly the car never got one clean run that day as it was misfiring, at least the manifold stayed down and appears to be fixed now. Regardless it still hit 166MPH, 170+MPH should be possible on a clean run, and hopefully next time will be issue free, a set of new plugs should fix it.

xtyper's E63 did awesome, the guy always does well, great seeing you Eric! Adam's E85, FBO, turbo's, 997TT, the other silver car in your vids, is around 700whp, he really needs to work on his shifting!

Sick runs! Your car makes crazy amounts of torque, the M3s didn't stand a chance .

You need to change your plugs every 3000 miles or whenever you are going to an event. I had the same issues till i realized that the plugs get beaten up pretty bad. You will only notice the misfire in the higher rpm.
Good Luck Drewski !!

Boss..

Your stable is utterly impressive. Always enjoy watching your videos.

Taking it to GMG (maybe today) to see about getting a track setup (wheels/tires, alignment) but don't think it will be done by Dec 1 to make it to Big Willow with you. I also need a clear bra. But should be done by the end of the year

Damn so at 13psi you would have just killed me!

Yeah it looked like the other Adam (997.1 Silver Turbo) didn't shift perfectly but at 700 to the wheels I though he would catch me easily mid-track. What it shows is how much power the PDK/DCTs make up for either manual trans shifting mistakes or the auto slushbox . Your car flew away from me at ~640 wheel but the two big turbo 997.1 Porsche's at 650 wheel (5 speed auto) and 700 wheel (6MT) only crept up at the end of the runs.

The big surprise again was Eric's E63 and Dave's RB Turbo gutted 335. Eric trapped at 162 and Dave at 159. Both of those cars are freaks.

The track was a bit wet in the morning so I think the first couple runs the RWD cars had to deal with some wheel spin. That's why I was pulling so hard at the start. But when I ran bubu and EAS, the initial pull at the start wasn't as significant. But yeah this is a totally different car to drive than the s/c M3's. I have twice the torque at 3,500 rpm so speed is just effortless. I still like the M3 better though

Just realized from your sig that our M3's are basically clones minus the KW's (I have stock ZCP). You have good taste my friend

Thanks Brother, yeah I tried the 13psi, smaller pulley, on the last run I think it was against a 335I and he killed me, the car misfired really bad, went limp, lite up like a christmas tree and trapped 76MPH, lol, no more runs after that. Changing the plugs today and also taking a trip to EAS for a few things.

Dave's car is flat out fast, the dude is super cool as well, I think all of the RB, JB4's did good. Eric, he always impresses, love this group no ego's, we all pull for each other, when I hit 166 on that one run, I got a text immediately on the return road from Eric, with congrats, now that's good stuff.

Thanks Drew. Great runs out there in your car, and I'm confident you'll be passing the cones at 170+mph at the next event.

And I definitely agree with your comment about us having a great group of guys out there. At events like this, the people you hang around really make the difference. You, Adam, Serge, Dave, and Terry are all class acts, and hanging out with you guys is always a pleasure.

Now somebody hurry up and schedule the next roll-on event!!!

[DATM3]

Nice runs! I wish i was on the west coast sometimes. Maybe one day when I can retire, i will have to make a trip over for these events. Is your Porsche stock? Got any dyno info? I have no idea what kinda trap times my new car is capable of yet. Supposedly, from a similarly tuned car from Topspeed on 93 octane its around 7.2 seconds 60-130.

[Wendall]

damn Adam, I hate this video because it makes me want to get out of my M and get back into a P.

But now ive dropped too much and wife won't let me have any more toys.

That is crazy how fast the P turbos can be made. My buddy had a 996TT with upgraded turbos and it smoked a TT Gallardo with 1000hp.

I ran a 997.2 Turbo S PDK,tune,exhaust @ Battle of the beasts and we rolled from 60 and I was amazed by how quick and how that car puts the power down. He put half a car on me from 60-80 then over a 100-200 I put about a car on it.
I was very impressed !
Enjoy your car in good health, it looks great Bro !

[AlteredBe4st]

Turbo S is one quick car, thanks for sharing the video.

[nitehawk]

Great runs OP!. Were you running 93oct pump gas?

Thx. I currently have a tune and IPD plenum. I only did a dyno stock and then with the plenum...but haven't been back since the tune.

I'd be real leary of 60-130 times. I've done a 6.8 and then a 9.2 right afterwards. It's a game of finding the right DA and slope. The only real comparisons are the ones done at the roll-on events comparing car to car in the same condition.

Haha don't fret Steve, I still prefer the M3 as does everyone I give back-to-back rides to!

Thx wow the exhaust helps a lot on this car since the cats are right next to the turbo but I didn't know it could be THAT fast. You saw on my vid how Drew flew away from me. Can't wait to get the exhaust + intercoolers and remap.

Pump VP 100 @ UnoCal 76 station by my office. Good stuff

[Irishace]

Those 997.2 are flat out nutz.
