I was lucky with the M3, as he told me he'd trapped 152 before, and 140's that day. I think he trapped in the mid 140's in his race with me. He was a really nice guy, as were most that day (except the Porsche d0uche.).

By the way, I heard the DA was almost a mile high. Not bad for running in mountain air.

What did the Porsche trap? Was he even fast for all the crap he was talking? lol

I don't recall what the ***** was trapping. I believe he was running slower than Steve though, and Steve was hitting 150 in his beast.

Nice vid, Jon, but you need to tell Kim to steady it up a bit next time LOL

Great kill, glad you got the car sorted out...

The black 997 with ~600 HP was around 148 IIRC... Steve's 996 hit 150.6 IIRC and the black 997 FP770 hit 153.xx

There was a brand-new 991 Porsche Carrera S that was hitting ~125.

I guess if the D/A was ~5,000 feet, that would explain my whooping on the M6, as it's n/a.

Thats pretty crazy, Steve's 996 is a 2003 right? I bet that acceleration is down right scary.

Yep, 2003 996 Turbo, GMG Stage 2 build. Steve was also running a 103-octane tune.

Stock 2011+ GT-Rs are low-eleven cars... with any mods whatsoever, they dip into the 10's... And once AMS or Forged Performance touches them, it's game over.

Your not kidding about the GTR's. Here's a local one that's a daily driver, well when it's not being made faster.
