True, but if you drive a Porsche then you get a bunch of one night stands. They're only for one night cuz you have to have a small ***** to buy a Porsche...they check at the dealer.

Do you know you can make 500rwhp(dynojet) with a 346 with h/c and fast ported on a LS1? The LS1 is a very potent motor with heads and cam!!

My car put down 390rwhp on a mustang dyno. A vyper 07 did 400rwhp on the same mustang dyno...It makes this race very possible. A Turbo is a 11.8@118ish mph car with the all wheel drive and electronic device(perfect start and driver).
I should hit 118-120mph with my car. By the way, I know one guy who did 11.49@125mph with a cam only car(MS3 and LS6). I'll see on the track this summer. I cant wait to go back since I broke my rear end last week on the track. I'll be back with the score in a couple of weeks. If I dont make 118-120mph, I believe the porsche and the vyper let me go ahead for fun But check the 12sec club or the 11sec club for my next post

But I understand some plp could call BS since they were not in the car and they are very nice and powerful cars. Otherwise, go get your stage 3 heads, a TR cam and a nice tune and you'll see!!

If you only expect to trap at 118-120 on your car, then I have a feeling that this was a badged 911 Turbo, not a real one. Good kill on a 911.

Thanks!!

No fake badge here, it was real. And if the 911 turbo traps 118 in a very good situation, I guess trapping 118 or more makes my car faster or equal at least(depending on weather, track, traction and my car this day). I'll see on the track myself.

Did it have scoops on the rear fenders? Then it's a real Turbo.

Well good luck with your car, but I thought you had four people in the car and he had two? I would think the weight difference would slow you down a little making him have the advantage. Of course he could have been a poor driver and did not hit the "overboost" button on the car which I assume people use when they tested the car down the drag strip (bumps peak torque from 457 lb.-ft. to 502.)

Like Lamborghinis? Look at the trap speeds. The Turbo tops out at ove 190mph.

Also, there is no overboost "button". It's in the programming, thats all. It may have been an automatic but they are just as quick.

Regardless if the h/c car can trap at 118mph, it still had 4 people in it which makes it doubtful it was a Turbo or maybe was smart and didn't want to race a domestic with 4 people in it.

I just assume that your mustang dyno was not severe as mine was. Dyno numbers sucks, unless you can compare with other car besides and still, its not totally accurate. 1/4miles time is the best number you can refer to. My car made 12.4 with a slipping clutch with the last owner.

I killed a 07vyper on the highway. It was with 2 plp in each car. I took 2 cars in second gear and hold him this way till the 4th. This was on the 3rd honk and I stopped to talk to the guy, he was flooring. Knowing that, I'm sure the turbo race is real and its not BS. I wish I could race your camaro with 395rwhp, just to see the difference betwwen the dyno(no offense here,just to compare)!! dyno numbers is not all. I know a guy with a 474rwhp Talon and he made only 12.40@117mph

thanks for reading

911 Turbos go 0-60 in 4 flat and top out at 190... Taking 8 seconds to go from 60 to 120 doesn't sound right

Road and track tested the 911 turbo: 3.3sec 0-60, 8.3sec 0-100 and 11.6@118.3mph 1/4 mile. 8sec It seems right if you check stats of every other fast cars... Sry to use R&T if you dont like it, but I like this mag. The c6 Z06 past the 1/4 mile 8sec later too..

Weight means jack from a high speed roll. Weight affects two things:

Rolling resistance and inertia.

Rolling resistance is pretty much marginal compared to wind resistance after about 70.

And inertia matters a lot less when the acceleration rates are less due to being in 3rd gear and up.

Sure it affects things, but nearly as much as it would from a dig.

Nice kill OP.
