Wow.....scary.....

The sunroof issue is even worse on the 993tt, the roof is not being sucked inwards it is being sucked outwards because of the pressure differential at these speeds.
My pal lost his sunroof during a 190mph run in his 993tt and my 993tt was always on the verge of letting go (so much so that I eventually had a proper steel roof put on and deleted the sunroof)

Checkout the noise at 30s mark on the vid below, it is the sunroof raising its front edge and wanting to exit the vehicle at 190mph:

Hats of to Joe and the Evoms crew. Great number despite the issues. Keep the evolution wheel turning.

Joe, great you came out safely. Excellent reaction and corrections, especially at that speed.

Faster than the old 917s and 962s?

Yep, those cars are fast and may even have a higher top speed than 231, but they will not get to 231 inside of a mile like Joe's car.
