Sorry...
Sorry man, that wasn't a Turbo. I am the worlds biggest mustang fan but on the street an 850 hp pony on DR's isn't gonna hang with a Turbo. If you've ever been in one it really ruins all other cars as it just could't be any more incredible. They only weigh 3100 lbs and have near 500hp. The engine sits right on top of the tires...they have the most sophisticated traction control in the world. If it was a Turbo, the guy gave you a thumbs up for having some real sac!!
DavidF said:I got in race a while ago with a 03’ Turbo Porsche. I was getting on a 180 deg. Freeway on ramp when up in the distance I saw the Porsche; I wanted to get a closer look so I sped up to check it out. Well this guy must have looked up and seen me in rear view. And thought I wanted to race. There was a slow van in front of him so once the on ramp straightened up he immediately swung over to the middle lane and stomped on it! Well I knew it was on! So in 2nd I stomped on the gas getting sideways got in the middle lane to pursue him. At this time he was about three car length ahead of me I gently get it in third and start to hit my power band and I start reeling him in were doing about 95 or so, and I know I can do around 125 in third its only going to take me a few more seconds to catch him then all of a sudden…..Oh sh#t slam on the brakes cause there’s a wall of stopped cars ahead (this is a Cali. Freeway) so we both slowed down, I got in the fast lane and he came up besides me rolled down his tinted window and gave me the thumbs up. When we got in the clear he stayed back and I never saw him again.
