OK, here is my question, first of all, please tell me everything you know about the 2002 Porsche 911 Turbo..
Secondly, this jerk wants to bet me $1000 he will beat me in a 1/4 mile drag.
What do they run??
My car is a 98Z with H/C and spraying a 300 shot of NOS.
I run a 1.41 60' time and although the car hasd not been run yet with the 300 shot, I ran a 10.71 @ 130 with a 175 shot.
My car should run a very low 10 second pass with a shot at the 9's..
DO I have anything to worry about??
P.S. last question, is there anyway to formulate what my car would run 0-60 MPH??
This guy says his car runs 0-60 in 4.8 seconds and he told me that my car is nowhere close to that..
I agree, I am sure it is much faster than that..
Thanks for the info!!!!!!!!!!!!!

300 shot?
He will beat you unless you have that tuned in you need a whole lot of fuel pump and I dont' mean inline to run that much.
TTPorche is a very low 12 second car with a good driver. like 12.2@117mph I think? 2nd fastest production car behind Viper GTS?
You can beat him with your 10.7 setup.

John, yes a 300 shot... I ran a 175 shot all last year and ran consistent 10.7X @130 on ET Streets.
I have a fully independent fuel system for my Direct port NX setup. The system was built and tuned by Cartek and it runs great.
I went to the track on Friday and ran the car on motor - 11.81 @ 116.
And believe it or not that shot is on a stock bottom end.
Julio at Cartek spent several days tuning the car on a dyno and wideband..
I know it won't last forever, but I have a 408 block waiting for me when it pops. In the meantime, I am going to see what I can get out of this stocker.
Low 12's will not be a problem, thanks!!

If you are running 10's why are you worried?
Why the hell would you take a 2002 Turbo Porsche to a dragway anyway. I mean, the car was made for a road coarse.
Good luck, not that you will need any in a drag race or on a road coarse if he can't drive well.

BTW you don't have to worry I've raced my friends 2001 911TT from a roll 4-5 times and I would put about 3 cars on him every time (we raced to 120-130 mph) - so he went and bought a 2001 Viper, I could only get him by 1/2 car.

run the 175shot, no need to test the 300 shot on him , after you beat him up show him you didnt want him to look so bad and then run the 300shot if you desire

thanks, I wouldn't have been worried, but I never met a guy with so much confidence!! By the way, this race is to be conducted at a 1/4 mile race track.
I think you have a good idea, maybe run best out of 3, first run on motor, see what happens, then maybe the 175 shot and we will end it with all that I got!!!

At a local strip I saw a 2001 TT run a best of 12.2, bone stock. If you run consistent times, you should wipe the floor with his $120,000 car, assuming he is stock

I saw a Black one in E-Town last year running 153mph <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Had a Cage in it with tinted windows. He was granny shifting it to 10.00s. It was pretty funny <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
But if he claims 0-60 in 4.8 then obviously this guy isn't a real car guy.
Good Luck

Hmmm...did it ever happen? Did he try the 300 shot? Did it go KABOOM!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />
My guess is it never happened. Very often people toss out big challenges like $1000 or more in hopes of scareing the other person into not racing. Strokes their little egos to have someone turn them down I suppose. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />
It's VERY unlikely that a 2002 Porsche would be modified enough to run low 10s, IMO.
