Both doing about 45 mph, then we both booted it big time, he was just behind me, then he overtook, his car was screaming, he diddnt seem to pass as quickly as i expected tho, I was only running 14 psi, when I get it mapped by JD and set at 1.5bar it may have been a different story, must say tho, them 911's are dam quick, was gutted cus that was the first race I lost ha ha.

Noes!!!! His must of been tuned ;)

Maybe next time when its running at its best I would of beat him.

The base Carrera 997 will do 0 to 60 mph in 4.8 seconds, with a top speed of 177 mph. The tubby is 3.9 with a top speed of about 186, Plus the suspension set makes it is easy to drive on normal roads.

3.9 seconds, thats quick, no wonder i lost

brothers got a gt3 absolute rocket :)

What turbo's and mods have you got to be running 1.5bar / 22psi??? :eek:

 

Quick those 911 Turbo's!

Had a fairly even race with the Turbo model from around 3 or 4 years ago :)

Kicked the arse of a Cayenne Turbo S shortly after, rolling from about 40mph to 100 ish as I overtook it :D

at nearly £149,000 it would need to be fast

That's spookily close to my spec! LOL

Loads of the same bits as on mine in rides :)

I'm still running 14psi too as every time I think about mapping it properly something breaks!

 

Chrs.

Just imagine what we could achieve spending 100k on our cars :) Then they will feel stupid for what they bought :D

As i have said before, they are not that quick!!!!

 

Matey, don't turn the boost up too much, make your 300 last and don't blow her.

 

£150k versus erm... lets say for arguments sake £10-15k(BIG difference), and you come a very, very close second!!! In time that 150k will be a quite a few pounds less. (am not talking about weight!). Now your 300 is worth a certain amount to you, and it will remain that amount for many years to come, if you keep her in good form, it may increase, and i doubt the old porker will increase!!

this is what u dealth with ..

sorry but they are very quick and you would need alot more power to beat one in a straight line and round twisties it would leave you for dead!!

 

more likely with a 100k car is they dont use it to its max but those new 911 turbos have vcc turbos which spool at around 1800 revs so they are stupidly quick.

Just to add......1/4 miles for....

 

993, 12.1 @ 117mph

996, 11.9 @ 120mph

997, 11.2 @ 129mph

 

Now i may be wrong, but, if i remember correctly Mr . Mike Feeney once quoted that a modded 300 could stretch to early 12 secs @ almost 120mph for 1/4 mile on the "z-club" website. Not far behind for the new porker, as for the older, fatter version, well.....driving experience, gear change, etc...

As before, i maybe wrong, if i am soz.

lol, not seen one do it yet!

 

and agree with Mike, if it was a GT2 it would have slaughtered a 300, even with the 530bb turbos.

difference is the older one in standard form will still do the 1/4 mile time LOL a zed would be in pieces but that age LOL

 

even a 600+bhp zed would never run low 3s in the 0-60 where a standard porka can, they are a beast of a machine and can be used everyday which makes them a true achievement.

 

as i said most porka drivers are old so cant drive ;) give me a new 911 turbo and i guarantee i would embarras 99.9% of all zeds

 

saying that i would rather have a new gtr :)

i would go as far as to say no matter what the turbos fitted on a true road with bends a 911 would beat the zed, dont get me wrong it would beat most other cars as well ;)

perhaps the hennessy one ??

no porker can touch that car ..

yeh have seen that, they already do a 800 bhp gtr with upgraded turbos and are developing a 1000 bhp but the weak area is the gear box so there working on a new box for it :)

 

Mike

I do like the look of a porker, but.....

I'd rather my 300 all day long!!

People look at the person in the porker and think "small c**k, small brain, no life"

People look at a 300 and think "oh my god, look at that!!!"
