just had my *** handed to me

100km/h -> 200km/h vs 997 turbo

Of course I knew the result before hand, but still it wasn't pretty.
I needs me another 100hp ASAP.

Don't worry I recently got spanked by an Evo 9 after 100MPH he was so far ahead that it was depressing.

Given that I use to own one myself I proceeded to ask in the local Evo forum to find out who owned the car. I soon learned that the car had a 2.3 stroked 35R Turbo upgrade which had 500WHP on a light AWD car... ouch!

I'm sure that wont be enough lol... 500WHP and I saw the dyno sheet so even at most conservative guess he has around 600HP to the crank. I still like my C63 though its quiet and refined when it needs to be

Meh...pull up to any casino valet and you'll get more respect from the 63 over an EVO.

Well, that sounds about right. I don't think it's a matter of anything being wrong with the C63, but more so a matter of the 997TT being an amazing sportscar. There are few cars (in stock form) that can hold a candle to that Porsche. You haven't seen Ken's car (in our Vancouver group) in person yet, but it's a 996TT, completely modified, and it is just absolutely stunning.

I never did get to run against the LP560 or GTR in the group. How do they fare against the other cars and each other?

Let's just say that the LP560-4 is demonically possessed. Heck, every car in that group is fast. Just come out when you've passed your break-in period (or are you already there?).

i think i can weigh in on the matter. a kleemann k2 will get you close to a stock tt. close enough that it will probably irritate the tt driver. then, he'll probably mod his tt to near 700hp territory, and you're spanked again.
