Well I finally had a play against a local one tonight down the new bypass thats just been built by my area and I must admit I had my ass handed to me

Once on the move I held my own right upto high speeds (highest i've been infact) but from a rolling start from 50mph it just took off like a fookin rocket.

I had a bit of sport a while ago against a BoxsterS and done very well against it and thought the older carrera wouldnt be be any problem

Anyone know what power these things are???

If its a 993, they're 285bhp, but about 300lbs/ft of torque.

U were in the LCR then?

Me and my dad shat all over an Evo 5 on the way back from Knockhill a few years ago.
I think the aerodynamics of 911s give them a god advantage over similar powered cars.

Aye the boxsters aint that impressive, I thought the S version would have been a lot quicker but they aint lol.

I've no idea what age it was, was on a private plate. Looks like a 90s version tho.

Nic - Do you know a lad called Pete with the IHI mk4 ibiza???
