Someone needs to buckle up!

It took nearly 20 seconds to get to 100 mph? Something's not right here.

Nice video though.

MKS,

17 seconds to 100 mph (160km/h). That is a long time for a 997 GT2.

That's 9.6 seconds of the porsche time. Advertised time for a 0-100mph run is 7.4 seconds.

The car has to be broken in yet, give it a few months and re test.

i changed the speedo to mph and the run starts from at or after 10 seconds and gets to 100mph at 18 seconds so thats 8 or less seconds from 0-100 and the video is 0-170+mph and you can tell from the gearing that im in mph not km

Huh? No offense, but your explanation was more confusing than the original post.

You obviously have an awesome car. Go out and do a true 0-100 mph run, during the day, with your seatbelt on, and then re-post it. That will take away all of this confusion.

You should be hitting 0-100 mph from a standstill in less than 10 seconds in that car without much effort.
