Hillclimbing a 996Turbo
Discussion
Top weekend just gone by at Prescott Hillclimb, fabulous weather on the Sunday and some great competition.
My first timed run, was going well until i was red flagged at the last bend, semi circle due to what appeard to be a small piece of black plastic. Appologies to the Marshall after i rather rudely said " is that it" much to the amusment of onlookers
Anyway, i then thought, great i will get a re-run on warm tyres, so strait back out and off for another crack.
Good start and LOADS of grip into the first fast left [ Orchard? ] a nice tidy run. Could not believe the time after the finish of a 46.08, new class record,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, so,,,,,,,,,,,,,, many thanks to whoever deposited the "debris"
That's it for me this year now, the 996T has been ace all year, the new RSS engine mounts have not eliminated the tramping off the line but have improved it enabling me to pull away gently ish at first then floor it, result my best 0 to 64 ft time of 2.34 at Prescott.
Photos to come if and when.
cheers
