JCviggen Posted May 26, 2010 Report Share Posted May 26, 2010 Just a fun little vid really. Came across a 997 'mk2' "S" so 385hp and a Porsche quoted top speed of nearly 187mph. He wanted to play, so I turned on the cam on the Autobahn. I'd have murdered him side by side from 3rd gear but when I had to let off and give him a little distance he was definitely pretty quick above 130mph. Mind you, the 850 was running only 20 psi "track map" and it was kinda warm out. Still good fun. I suggest watching youtube rather than embedded. I hit around 165mph a few times then let off because there were no revs left. Was already putting both speedo and rpm off-scale <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sconeman Posted May 27, 2010 Report Share Posted May 27, 2010 nice, those cars are pretty quick - 12.5 @ 113 also JC, whats the weight of your car ? haha that's awesome I bet he was like when you caught up to him that first time. too bad you ran out of gears :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCviggen Posted May 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2010 nice, those cars are pretty quick - 12.5 @ 113 also JC, whats the weight of your car ? Never weighed it. I'm guessing it's in the 2900lb range. The 355bhp version carrera S traps 112 to 114 depending on which you come across. This one is 385 but I can't find any data on 1/4 miles, probably because they're too new. At full boost my traps are ~118. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My father has a 09' 997 4S, traps 113-4 in the 1/4 @ 12.5 stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young Burnsy Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 amazing. I wish our roads were like derestricted autobahn... I don't, American cars can't handle it and there are too many idiots on the road. It would be a mess... Awesome video though :tup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyb5 Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 I don't, American cars can't handle it and there are too many idiots on the road. It would be a mess... Awesome video though :tup: +1. Drivers here have a hard time at 55-65 mph, I don't even want to think about an unrestricted stretch of highway But on the other hand, it would help Darwin along......

JCviggen Posted June 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 get a m56l for the nice top speed you have the 4.25 right? 4.45 I don't need top speed, I need acceleration. I gladly live with the 170mph cap in exchange for better performance on track! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mesoam Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 too bad he didn't go for a side by side, that would have been nice :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
