My car's best time so far is 12.82@109.2 with a 1.934 60'. My best MPH was 109.92. I let doofoo drive the car for me becasue he is 100lbs lighter, and he got a 12.793@109.04. For some reason, even with the DRs I cannot get into the 1.8s in the 60'.

That was an amazing run dude! You were just FLYING away from me! Of course that was the run the tires decided to loose 100% of traction on, and attempt to put me into a wall.

Doofoo and I both had a hard time getting the brakes on my car to hold the car when power braking.

I hope to be there with you!

Doesn't look like DR's are really going to give me any extra, I tried Aaron's and had lower 60' times than with my regular tires.. They just seem to break loose.
Any other suggestions? What else is there out there other than headers? LSD? Gear swap maybe help me out? I'd be happy with mid-low twelves as well. Would love 11's but don't want to blow my engine up with Nitrious.

There is a nitrous kit for the C32? I am all ears, I would love a 50 shot of nitrous.

you'll get it down.... like i said, lots and lots of practice... next time we'll get to the track at like 4:30 like i did last time and work on your launches!!! You still got a 13.2 which is an awesome time for a stock C55 on 19s.

C32/Porsche356A/MB4matic/Audi 200 Quatro Turbo
SL55 splitter
I use my C32 to teach racing at New Hamphsire International Speedway.
My C32 is a 2002 and will be coming of a lease in December 2005.
I would like to make some mods to the C32 at that time.
What was the cost of the parts plus install for the splitter??
What performace gain do you think you are getting??
I also plan to do Stage 1 RennTech.
I have and love the springs from Renntech as it has made the car handle with a lot less understeer.
Have you installed the MB camber bolts up front and the rear camber kit from RennTech

Wow!
Wow! What tracks are you guys running these phenominal numbers at????
I just ran my C32 At "Test and Tune" at Las Vegas Speedway. I was able to get in 4 runs all being pretty consistant.
My 60 foot times were 2.2-2.3
I ran 14.035, 14.077,14.095,14.122
Every run was between 101-102.2 MPH
I am aware of the fact that the track is at 2200 ft. of elevation.
It was a little windy alhtough temps were in the 60's. One thing I did forget to do was check my tire temps.
Can someone shed some light on perhaps what number i would be running at sea level? Perhaps mid to high 13's?? Maybe it's time for Evosport
