Killed a 911 GT2 Turbo today!

[Badgts]

Had another road trip surprise in the Cobra this afternoon. Had a sweet 911 GT2 come strolling by me on the interstate. After my last encounter with a 911 turbo I was hungry for more (last one was a late model 911 Turbo non-S version). Noticed right away this was a different model and just had to give it a try. How often do you see a GT2? Driver was willing too (cool! :beer: ) so we hit it from 80ish. By 110ish I had about half a car. Just pulled him slowly in 4th. Almost droped it in 3rd but thought the revs might be too high and didn't want to spoil the run in case he wouldn't go again. We went a second time to 120ish with same outcome. Man, what a car though. I love Porsches, especially those. Tasty european street treats...kinda like German chocolate...but better :-D

Here is a link about the victim....

ehh i dont know man, they have push less hp then your 449rwhp, BUT they are more aerodynamic and have a top end of around 190mph. not to mention they weigh around 500lbs less

I'm sure had we stayed in it for the long haul he would have passed me. Doubt mine can hit 190...maybe not even 180 for that matter.

great kill to say the least man :thumbsup:

I have dedicated my new sig to you in your honor

 

[Mr. Mach-ete]

Nice kill but doesn't 11.8 beat 12.3? Any hoot, strong pulling cobra you got there. My old man has a modded 911, I beat him every time.

 

[Badgts]

Yeah, wouldn't want to try one from a dig...not without the DR's at least. I'm sure I could top the 12.3, but just don't go to the track very often and the last time I went was under poor conditions (dew on the track made for 2.2 60' times). And that's the only time I have gone since installing the pulley.

What the hell, am I the only one seeing this. No way you'd kill a GT2 especially from a roll at 80 mph, those cars cruise easily at high speeds like that (http://www.supercars.net/cars/1553.html). I call bs on this

:bs: :bs: :bs: :bs: :bs: :bs: :bs: :bs:

I beat one without the spray, it was a very close race, it was from a dig(stoplight). We pulled up next to eachother at the next light, said he ran a 11.6 at the track earlier that week. I think he was a little suprised that he lost. Happens. That's about what I run without spray, so I understand why it was so close. They are fast cars...with a very high poon factor too. :rockon:

 

[Evan5469]

This is exactly what I like to hear. A co-worker of mine has a new Carrera that thinks I have no chance of even keeping up with him. I can't wait til he actually wants to line them up.

 

[1fastsrt-4]

Good kill I haven't even seen one of those on the road here yet. Oh for the guy that said 12.3 car < 11.8 1/4 mile times are about traction and launch techiques roll ons are about smashing gears and holding on tight. I have beaten 450-500whp cobras from a roll on but from a dig they put a huge hurting on me. Rwd>Fwd Anyways, Great Kill

 

[Orr89rocz]

roll races are about trap speeds

i dont know what a GT2 traps, but i'm sure its close to the upper hundred teens

should be a good race i would think... nice kill

 

[horseplay]

its a very rare sighting to see one... just a couple days ago i seen a sl65 benz ina parking lot, i would think he would have beat you.. well who knows good runs

GT2's are badass and are geared for top end, but that 11.8 is because they are awd. They can launch the shit outta them cars. I think his cobra would have him down low till the higher speeds. His car has 449rwhp to the porshes motor pushin 450. That weight advantage is made up for. I think hes tellin the truth. I think if they went from a 10-20mph roll the cobra would pull on um no prob. Just my 2cents

 

[Serpent]

gt2 & gt3 are rwd.
911 turbos are awd.

 

[02Lightning629]

O are they my fault thought they were all.

 

[PSI87]

Ahh you killed the car im in love with. i believe i read somewhere it traps 121 and reaches a top speed of 198.

 

[joegt38]

Nice kill, I believe it not everybody can put down times like magazines.....

Your right the GT2 is geared toward higher speeds. The guy said they went from 80 mph to 110 mph, thats a pretty high speed to me. Not to say his cobra isnt fast, but I doubt he walked a 911 GT2

 

[PSI87]

Well i can see some cobras beating a gt2 at those speeds. thats only 30mph. i think the porsche would have really owned him above 150.
