So my father and I were at a BBQ last weekend when one of his buddies showed up in his new to him 2001 Porsche 911 TT with 14,000 original miles on the clock. Car immediately caught my attention. I begin to ask him a few questions about the car and all he could tell me was that he put a full exhaust on it and that the car is too much power for the street. Well not sure if he even knows what a full exhaust is but It did have a cat-back from what I saw, never looked underneath the car.
Anyway after bullshitting for a few minutes I say well would you like to race a mitsubishi. He said are you serious? I said ofcourse why not. He laughed and said "sure I will show you what my tailights look like." I said lets go. We head out to the interstate and we are both in second at 40mph. I start to brake boost and tell him to go. He nails it and I immediately follow. By the end of my 4th gear I had a good 2-3 cars on him. I was shocked, but then again I doubt this guy could really drive the car.
I try to line up again and he just slows down and gets behind me. We return to the BBQ and ofcourse the party is asking who won. So I laugh and say hey "Nick why don't you tell them what my tailights look like." He actually got bent out of shape and stayed quiet for a little bit. I went and got him a beer and said relax its all in good fun.
Looked up the car on goggle and found that the car traps 112-113mph in bone stock form. If he had full exhaust which I doubt the car is probably only a 113-115mph car.
For those wondering my EVO makes 445awhp and 372awtq on 93octane only. No track times yet.
