Default I got humbled :(

Posted a video not too long ago about beating a Turbo 911 on the Freeway. Which obviously from the video, was true with the outcome. But this morning I ran into a guy in a Turbo who was a fuc*ing tool. Im behind him and go around to try and line up and he hits it just as im going around him... I'm sitting there goin "Wtf was that???" So he pulls up again, we slow down and I'm at about his rear bumper, he hits it again... no warning. So then he pulls back down one more time and rolls down his windows and goes "Dude you lost ******* twice, give it up". I go "Dude.. maybe if we got a fair race in." "How much did your car cost, by the way?" "Mine cost just under 16 grand" He goes "Your car looks like it cost 16 grand". I replied "Funny thing is, your sorry *** cant pull near the chicks I pull in my 16,000 dollar car." He got all butt hurt, laughed and then goes "You lost twice, you think you can beat me with THAT engine!?" I go .. "Dude I have as much horsepower as you, you just won't line up with me." I switched lanes to get onto the freeway and he flips me off as he drives by. What in the hell!?!? Anyways, but one time that I did try and keep up, he was pulling on me from about 30-70. I wish I had friends with LS1's in OC that raped . Time to juice it? =o

What a bastard(the 911). People like that are as stuck up as that need to be put in their place.

When you told him you had just as much HP as him, you weren't serious were you? Those things have over 420 h.p. That's quite a bit more than what we've got.

The last two days I've come across turbo911's on Jamboree. Both times it was women driving them so I didnt even bother. I expect to get beat, but it would be fun.

Yeah but Porsche + Turbo = 444/457 flywheel at 3500 lbs. Add AWD to the mix.

I dont think the HP really comes into being an issue, it's more his power band, having a 6 speed + the way the car is setup to pull from any mph. My car pulls top end and I only have a couple of good pull points... like 50mph, 85 mph... mainly =/
