He needs a 911chips.com custom chip - Steve Wong custom programs these depending on exhaust/modifications. Really gets rid of the well known "Carrera" lag. Honestly though these cars live above 4500 rpms. Anything lower and you have the power to weight ratio of a stock Honda Accord.

this car is destined to remain completely stock. there aren't too many factory wide body cabs running around and his only has about 43k miles on... my brother only spends about 1 month a year at his orlando house so the only other time it moves is when i come grab it to get the oil changed and whatnot.

I gotta get a camera on the speedo. I've seen it hit 140 but of course if you're looking at the speedo at the end of a straight, the next thing you're looking at is a wall. So I dunno. 140 to 145 maaaaaaybe, if I can get my ass out of turn 15 fast enough.

g50, Photoshop should do nicely for putting you at that 170 mark.

Nah, isn't the speedo pinned? I can't tell, your glove is in the way.

BTW Whaz, do you have a Hans?

yes I do and I always tried the huchinson device and the isaac but like the hans cause it takes the place of the neck brace and you don't have as many straps. but then again I am doing oval and you do road course I don't have the run off like you guys have. I push or get loose i'm going into the wall some how.

but don't make a mistake with safety I have known to many people and even experienced it myself with some scars on my face from years back

Oval stocks? What class? Desoto or Sunshine? I was running oval gocarts before I went with the Viper. Someday I'd like to fit some oval track in on my schedule. What do you think of the Legends?

oval stock well I just bought a fast truck I race the series. I race dirt go karts since that is where all the competition is. I also do some road course.

and the legends are fast as shit they are kick ass. It all depends on what you want to spend. You can also look into mini cups which are pretty neat also. but legends are quick.
