No Fly Zone 1/2 Mile Airstrip Event Results 11/15/14

Another great event put on by Tony and Omegamotorsports, this time No Fly Zone 1/2 Mile Airstrip Event in Bakersfield, CA. My car ran great the entire day and turned a lot of heads. I think the videos below speak for themselves. Note all runs were done from about a 40mph roll. Mods are in sig.

Enjoy!

Me vs 2011 Porsche 997.2 Turbo S (GIAC Race Tune, FBO)

Me vs 2013 BMW M5 (JB4 Tune, FBO)

Me vs 2015 BMW M4 (Tune, downpipes)

Me vs 2014 E63 Biturbo (Weistec tune, downpipes, upgraded turbos)

Me vs 2015 Lambo Huracan (stock)

Me vs 2015 McLaren 650s (stock)

Wow. Cannot believe you took down the new Huracan and the 650s
And still cannot believe the Weistec turbo upgrade car cannot beat yours with just a Renntech intermediate tune and downpipes. Quite embarassing for them.

In their defense, I think this is a car that still has one of the original tunes that was hindered by torque limiters. Pretty sure they've gotten around that now.

I've had 3 E63's, and this is the fastest one to date. Was quite surprised myself at some of the cars I was able to run with.

I am surprised they don't retune the Weistec car then. Looks terrible for their turbo upgrade car to be destroyed by a lightly modded car like yours with no turbo upgrade or even full Renntech tune. Your car runs astonishingly fast for those mods. Cannot believe you beat the Huracan and 650s and were neck and neck with the modded 997 turbo.

Nice runs bro. Did you jump the Turbo S? I couldn't tell from your camera angle haha.

Your car is even faster than your last one. I'll bet 132+ 1/4 mile trap and 60-130's in the mid to high 6's.

The 997 Turbo S looked like it was pulling on you at the end -- a result that I expected. I am in total disbelief at the results of your runs against the 650s and the Huracan. I mean I know they are legit but I expected those cars to walk yours.

His best of the day was 7.1x and worst was 7.8x, so the videoed result could be a combination of me having had a great run, and him an average.

If I were the 650s owner I would not have been happy with the results of your run with him.

Holly shnikeys!!!!!! That is one fast MB! Congrats on those kills!

As far as the Weistec car, did it not trap 174 mph on the last event? Or was that a different Weistec? It's on their FB page!

I have Weistec downpipes on my RWD car and without the tune for them I dynode 632whp and 765rwtrq. I sent my ECU to weistec for the correct tune for the pipes and will dyno again but before that I will be attending a private 1/4 rental this coming weekend to see improvements over my last setup. Sorry for the hijack Eric...

Thanks vdub. I still think it's just a matter of getting the latest Weistec software loaded on that car and it will run much better.

Me too. Except there really is no comparable out of the box tune from AMS as it does not make an intermediate tune out of the box. Of course, AMS does offer custom tuning services so I am sure you could order an equivalent tune from them if you ask them.

Once I get my car in late January, which will have the full Renntech tune and Renntech sport mufflers and claimed power at the crank of 716 bhp and 859 lbs-ft of torque, I would love to run it against an AMS tuned car with its full tune and downpipes. Legally of course at an airstrip event or the drag strip.

Nice results once again!! Way to represent

Are you considering adding E85 or Renntech's new air box? I would love to see what your car would do with FBO's and some E85.

For sure. Watch for my new car thread in mid-late Jan. Wouldn't want to run the car hard until the spring when the winter tires come off and are replaced with summer rubber
