How I smoked a new 911 Carrera C4S convertible


I was on my way to work cursing on the highway at 65mph than I notice a car coming from behind fast, it was a Porsche so I change lane to let him pass. He continues to ride my rear for about another mile as the other lane was wide open. I make my exit and he follows me. There were two open lanes but he wanted to ride my rear. Now I’m rally pissed off! I have about 1.25 mile until I get to my work place and I’m no going to let this guy mess up my day so At the stop light he pulled next to me, he rev his engine so I think he wanted to race me. I looked around to make sure there no cops or heavy traffic ahead.

The front seen clear for mile. So as soon as the light turn green he took off fast! he got me by 3 car length, I floor it and caught up with him. I pass him by1.5 car length, I looked at my speedometer and we were doing at least 95mph. I slow down as we were approaching the next light as he caught up. Now I know it a race. I turn my air condition off, traction cntr off. Light turn green we both took off. He was fast off the line but once I hit about 45mph my car pull away fast! Like 4-5 car length, I hit the break let him caught up as he approached he floor it and I floor it. My car again pulls 3-4 cars away from him.

I slow down again as he pull up to me and i guess he decided not to try again. He pulls off on the HAV lane and I make my turn into the street where my work place is. I parked the car got out and pad my car on the hood. She made my day. At work some of my fellow co-work came over and congrad me. I pretend I didn’t know what they were taking about. It seen that a dozen or so of my co-worker was behind me coming to work also. They saw everything. I think the Carrera has about the same HP but less torque than our E55. Also my car was a little heavier than the Carrera even thought it was a convertible. But still it was a good feeling and I had a productive day at work.
