It looks like more bugs at the end than the start. Very fast fly swatter.:lol Great video thanks for sharing.:party You sure come on the slower traffic fast. Its a good thing the slower traffic has better manners than they do in Kalifornia and stay put in the lane to the right.:willy

Outstanding

Thanks for the video.
I wonder what the passed traffic thinks as they see you go by in a fraction of a second and disappear!
Pretty cool!

Would have been better to see a cigar in the drivers mouth and a blonde in the copilot seat. Nevertheless, a great run! Bravo!

Wow... I didn't have the balls of keep it planted whilst overtaking other cars.

It's amazing how planted it feels, doesnt't it?

Does anybody know what downforce the car generates at 200mph? I have read it's 300lbs at 130mph...

My pleasure Sir :wink

Will post a nice story about MATECH's new FIA GT3 racers later when I am back from my business trip.

By the way, I will be in Daytona 3-7 November for the Porsche Reunion event (unfortunately without my GT) with some buddies from Germany. Would be a pleasure to meet somebody from the Forum over there. One of my friends just bought lately a Porsche 908 (24 hours...) which he will drive and show in Daytona. So please PM me if somebody is interested and available for a cold beer :cheers - some GT folks from Florida around during that time?

Desi, I will be at the Reunion. First beer is on me. First margarita is on you. I already have a room there. Did you register for the Porsche Dinner on Saturday night (Nov 3)? Registration forms are only available on the PCA web site. Dinner Registration opened this Tuesday, and may already be sold out.

Desi if you want a real treat the anual PRI show is at the orlando convention center. 45,000 hard core race stuff maniacs. It is the best performance show on the earth. Last year Torrie had his twin turbo on the dyno in the parking lot.

I will have a display in the main hall. December 6-8
