if he didn't have to shift so much he would pull me. but when he had to shift I was pulling hard. and he would start creeping back up on me....we are going to do another one for a SOLID visual on who wins
due to we were both watching the road rather than each other and it would just matter where the finish line is
Truth, I must say your **** is fast. I'll make sure I'm not running 91 next time lol.

It's amazing how quick 911 Turbo's are. Very nice runs. I thought the footage took place on Mars?

So wait, the 3rd gen that traps what, 123-125ish? Beat you and yet you pulled a tt z06? This isnt really making any sense to me, please clarify.

Is this Z06 the one on your local board who was making up all those track times on your local forum (from when myslow raced that cobra?) and makes about 550 to the wheels but needs a driver mod?

Nice kill BTW.
If it is that guy, than he's a ****.

I trap 123-125 when I wait til 4500 to 5k rpm in 2nd gear to spray
on street my tires grab better than track and I had to spray at 20mph to put a nose up

so that is why it does not make sense

if I spray at track at the 60' I'm sure I would trap much higher and be much faster

Listen here choch,

Driver mod, are you ******* stupid? The car is on 295 Wide ovals which are most likely the worse tire I have ever had in my life. Considering the tires are about 40% I am not sure what you wanted me to do against a AWD 996?
Even if its 95% back and 5% just the fact that the power is being placed in all 4 wheels puts a huge advantage to him.

Please get your facts straight before you talk ****. He didn't disclose his horsepower when he raced me. A week after he raced me he told me the numbers and I must ******* say they are quite higher than mine.

The only reason I ran him is because he told me he put down 490 or something. If you knew what he REALLY put down you would be like oh. lol

The fake slip was a joke that was between a few of us that new that posting that **** would stir a bunch of laughs.

LOL. Did I upset someone that easily?
Stock Z06 wheels are 325's out back and you couldn't remotely hold together a car with 480whp from a 40 roll.
Awesome.
