911's are all over the board speed wise depending on the model/year.

Pretty soon, some porche nutswinger will tell you how that car will hand your *** to you if you race around a light pole at the local mart! Good kill!!

I ran a newer Carrera from 65-120 and had him by a little more than a car so sounds good.

nice kill

i had one of those race me from a 90mph roll in my juiced 2001 a4 v6 vert. i was just cruising with the top down, so i was hesitant at first.

he ended up taking me by an easy 3-4 carlengths...

thing is, i pulled strong (barely keeping up along side him with a 75 dry shot) until i let off the nitrous a couple hundred rpm before the 3-4 shift.. then he pulled close to 2 carlengths and he let off once he destroyed me by the 3-4 lengths when my bottle pressure dropped.

i removed the speed limiter with hptuners and actually tuned the timing for the shot earlier, but i wasn't logging during the impromptu race. i know we at least got up past 125. the only other mods i had on the car was a factory upgraded muffler, minor hptuners adjustments (fan settings, !egr, !cat-over-temp-protection, !torquemanagement, increased shift speeds) and fra with a lid.
