 EVOMS
SETS NEW STANDING 1-MILE SPEED RECORD!!
EVOMS GT X X X Assaults 230+ MPH at the Texas
Mile
The GT X X X Performance System for the Porsche 996
turbo
has set a new speed record of
231.4 MPH for the standing mile at the Texas Mile.
Goliad, TX
– Evolution MotorSports
has set the Porsche
world on fire with a new standing 1-mile speed record of
231.4
MPH.
Additionally, we set a new record
for the fastest street Porsche from 0-300 KM which was done in
14.41 seconds! What makes both of these records even more
astonishing is it was accomplished in a 100% street car that
weighs 3300 pounds. This car is still equipped with A/C, a
full stereo with Bose sub box and had nothing stripped out of
it. All of the aerodynamics are 100% stock and the only
appearance changes to the car are the FIKSE FM10 wheels.
Our accomplishments
with this Monster 996 turbo stem from our 8+ years of experience
with this power plant combined with thousands of hours of
advanced CAD engineering, prototyping, virtual testing and real
world product validation. John Bray, Evolution MotorSports
Master Porsche Technician, has built more than one hundred 996TT
& 997TT engines in the past 5 years and has been responsible for
many of the technical advances and the evolution of the
water-cooled, 4 valve, flat six engine. The EVOMS engine
development team has practically re-engineered most of the
internal engine components to withstand and endure the most
brutal punishment. Our engine building processes have been
perfected throughout the years which have contributed to our
many accolades and our new world record achievements.
HELP Us Name The MONSTER!
Why GT X X X? We have not yet named this one. In the past
we have used the GT
(Garrett Turbo) followed by the power of the specific
performance system. Since we have set a new record with
this car as well as entering into a whole new stratosphere, we
feel it is time for a new name. We are asking our dealers,
friends and anyone reading this to offer suggestions.
Please email them to
parvin@evoms.com and the one who comes up with the selected
name will receive a free pair of Piloti Driving shoes.
NOTE:
Previous records were held by a lightweight 964 turbo which
ran the mile at 228 MPH and a European 993 turbo race car
which ran a 0-300 KM distance in 16.9 seconds.
THANKS To Our Sponsors!
A HUGE Thank You is in order
for those who helped us achieve this World Record. Our
sponsors played a critical role in our success,
perhaps you should consider them as well!
