We need to meet up again. One of the tuners just tested a stock one at 490 RWHP and 490 RWTQ.

"For comparison, listed below are some other stock power figures from our same AWD dyno:

997.1 TT puts down ~438 AWHP and ~431 AWTQ to the wheels
997 GT2 puts down ~476 AWHP and ~466 AWTQ to the wheels
997.2 TT DFI puts down ~490 AWHP and ~490 AWTQ to the wheels"

Bro you need to go buy one! I think there is still a white one with all the nice options at Fletcher.

Awesome guys!! Please post up live updates or close to live.

Or text me and I will post.

Looks like I will be back with a new used mb.

No longer in the AMG club but she will rise to the top via TT and an ECU tune.

I really hope you guys do HEADS UP RACING , and please record the event.

My CLS is another 30 days and then returned to dealer.

Have fun , i can't believe I won't be there.....SUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCs.

Haha....talk about luck!!!

Here's how my day went. I went to pick up the rental trailer and I found out that my trucks wiring adapter has a short somewhere and they wouldn't release the trailer due to no taillights...understandable. No big deal, I'll just drive up...right. On my way home I get a "conven something low battery", still no big deal. I make a phone call and purchase both front and back battery's. On my way home from the dealership my car keeps telling me to pull over and stop..... I just keep on going because I was very close to home...well, I get a stop sign looking thing that's red and I lose my brakes and power steering one block from my home.

I get home and give both my tech and Serge a call trying to find some answers. I couldn't get hold of my tech but Serge was available and willing to help...thanks a ton Serge . He tell me what I need to do and what needs to be checked. In the end I change both of my battery's and I still get the battery looking thing that comes up red and tells me to visit the workshop. I have what seems to be a bad alternator .

I guess I'm the one with excuses now and I'm very disappointed. At least I have the pleasure of getting to race my friends car along with him...Mikes AMG! He will be using my drag setup and his car is no slouch, as a stage 1.5.

Sorry Sun, this is a legit excuse with no bs. In a way I feel lucky this didn't happen along the way. I guess there's always a positive to offset the negative. See ya guys there.

Rumor has it that Rick won't be there....is this true Rick? Mike and myself will still be attending and I challenge you in his stage 1.5, will you except and still show? I honestly believe this will be a good race and his car might have the edge.... Let's have some fun. I'm making the efforts as planned to still attend and I'm not even racing my car. Please except this friendly challenge and show.

Just for reference Mikes car is usually .6-.7 slower than mine with my current setup, this is at the same track on the same day. Many questions will still be answered about Sac's trap speeds.

Let's get it on boyzzzzz!!!!!

We're taking off now and I look forward to seeing my old friends and meeting some new ones. Drive safe guys and lets have some fun!!!!

You're too fast but if it makes you feel better we'll give you a shot while were there . We will attempt to get Mike's 60' times down in the low 1.6's and from there the DA will determine the outcome of his ET's. Tick tock!

I would offer to, but last couple of times, I ended up getting too busy at the track so wasn't able to text or even see half the races Maybe I'll have a friend do it....

In the middle of a storm Josh? and yes, it openned yesterday, I sold 6 cars very busy day. As a matter of fact it was the most cars I've ever sold in one day.
Sorry to hear about your car Allan car. All trash talkin and fun went out the window just like that . I would have drove through the night to come out for the game but once I heard your car was down I figured I will work Saturday. I only have 1 sales guy today and he's at the other lot so I would have had to close. Josh was even going to take a stab at running my car but seems he's gone to the other side Well have some fun guys. Oh and not a chance Mikes car would have Be cool and break some PB mike...
