Protomotive Porsche 996 Turbo runs a 212mph at the TEXAS MILE
UPDATE:: This weekend will definitely go down as one of my most memorable to date. Running 200+mph in the Texas Mile has been a goal of mine for a few years ever since my first 996TT (tip). I was unsure that the car would even be ready to run after blowing a coolant fitting on the road course at MSR Houston just a week before the Mile. BUT, Steve Ott and his crew at DriverSource came through and put the car back together the day before I had to leave for Beeville, TX. I can't give enough props to the best shop in Houston hands down. Also, big thanks to EVOMS and BBI for shipping out parts at the last minute. And finally, Protomotive builds a great car!
SPEED Channel's "Mobil 1 The Grid" filmed the run and interviewed me and I'm sure my answers make me look like a total tool, but it was fun.
