interesting run in with 2011 911 last night
i was heading to the airport to pick up a family member cruising on 280 with no traffic and as i pulled up next to a newer 911 C4 (with yellow brakes) going about 70 he must of thought i was just another E class in the Bay Area and decided to open it up. While he took off and i waited a few seconds while looking at the wife - she said "I know you want to - go ahead". With that I hit the kick down and i was literally right at his bumper within 2-3 seconds - his car sounded great - the wife watched the numbers climb very fast and we shut down at 130 as upcoming traffic came in view. Needless to say i pulled up next to him to give him a thumbs up and he wouldn't even look over - was probably pissy that his pretty C4 couldn't walk me in my old grocery getter - LOL
Days like this make me fall in love with the BEAST all over again - car pulled like a freight train -

No one in this particular thread mentioned and/or cared about canyon roads. The C4 wanted to flex in a straight line and got embarrassed.

this was all he said in his post
"i pulled up next to a newer 911 C4 (with yellow brakes) "
even if it was a 2011 the specs are as follows
385 hp at 6500 rpm
Max. Torque (lb.ft.)
310 lb.ft. at 4400 rpm thats if its a c4s. if not its even lower.

Good *** cleansing OP
320 dreamer is a cool cat fellas, big AMG drag guy that got his SLK32 AMG into the 11s before he sold it and picked up the P Car. No doubt each car shines in their own environment, so lets just leave it at that.
Steve I will go at it with you at Timmayfest homey, we will get it on video too, cant wait brotha, and I like BLT sandwitches btw
