Pictures of my 430 BHP 993 TT

Having enrolled with Photobucket.com, I hope to attach below, some recent photos of my 993 twin Turbo at a "Quarter mile" event at Edzell near Aberdeen.
Both I and my 19 year old son did 2 non clutch destroying runs each .

Excellent - I want one!

Were you racing the guy in the Nissan Bluebird by the way?

Are you going to be rude and not tell us what times you posted?
If it's of any interest, we were at the GTi international show a couple of weeks ago and a GOLF R32 twin turbo posted a 0-60 of 2.9 and an Audi rally car managed 2.5!

Have you had the car long? Looks good!

Give it time!

Under strict instructions to get off the line slowly,my son, with his friend riding shotgun, did a 13.5 at 110mph. I did 13.4 at 111mph with a similar slow and easy start.
Car really flew once I gave it it's head.
Interestingly, on my first run, I was paired with a GSX1000 Suzuki race bike. He did 10.7 at 130mph and looked like he would have had time for coffee before I reached the line. Unbelievably quick!!

It's not the clutch you need to worry about anyway; it's the GEARBOX you'll leave in the road!

good to read of people driving their cars the way nature intended... 993s always did look good in dark colours...
