Default SS against 911 turbo 07

I raced a 911 turbo 07 with 4 plp in my car on the highway. The race was in third. I heard him shift when I was still pulling in third. Took 1/2 to 1 car on him from 3rd to mid 4th gear . I wasnt so sure about pullin him with my stock gear back(new rear end) and with four plp on board(600lbs+3450lbs). But I checked and 07 turbos weight 3650lbs+driver and one small passenger and 480hp. The guy smiled when I gave him a thumbs up for his nice fast car. This car has a fantastic look and its freakin fast. I was excited about this race and wanted to share with you guys.

Thanks for reading!! sry for not having a video on that!!!

Nice Kill Those cars are quick, unfortunately they are a little heavy as you noted. Any idea what you are putting down? 425-450ish?

Thats true, most people in Porsches are gay; nice cars though. How much power is your civic putting down.

510. Its streetlegal but not really streetable at all. No air condtion, no back seats, no radio, no power steering etc. Its my toy until I get out of college, then I want a C5 vette.

That thing must move. I'm not crazy about their looks, but I'd sure as hell drive that one.

And yes, 911 turbos are sexy automobiles. Good run.

Nice kill for sure. But I can't beleive they weight 3650LBS with driver. That sounds like a Edmunds.com number there. Most stats floating aroud are absolute BS. They weigh in at more like 3450ish. He definitely had less weight than you and you still pulled him.

I checked porsche.com and it's 3494lbs for manual and 3572lbs with tiptronic; all wheel drive is heavy!

3650lbs was from Road and track.

So with 4 people in your car, heads and cam and you pulled on a car that traps in the high teens? I'd really like to some dyno or track numbers. Surprised no one else called BS.

Ok, I'll bite. What motor in that thing? What turbo, how much boost? Any pics?

And all you guys talking about what he paid for you could of got something else. Damn a porsche 911 turbo is pretty damn sweet. If you have that kind of money, than who cares what else you build faster.
