Talking I had a really good Monday!

On Monday I left work little earlier than usual and went to friend who lives south of Stockholm (Trosa). It was racing time!

Outside this little town called "Trosa" thera are a couple of magnificant country roads and almost no traffic. It was me (911 3.2 -84) my friend Fredrik (Alfa Romeo GTV 3.0 -86) and Per (stunning BMW M6 -88). Fredrik's Alfa is pretty much stock except the suspension, exhaust and other cams (approx 200 hp).
On the other ahnd the BMW has around 286 hp and my Porsche i also stock.

We did a run from 0-200 km/h a couple of times and my porsche was the fastest! I knew that the 911 3.2 was fast but not that fast. Anyhow it was "sehr gut" day, a real driving experience.

Although the Porsche maybe faster in a straight it is pretty difficult to kepp
up with the Alfa and the BMW when it comes to cornering.

Best Regards

this surprises you? I'll explain

Alfa= Italian trash box, finickey and unreliable, poorly engineered, tractor motor coupled to a lightweight though with decent sized brakes makes it quick down a mountain. untill its Magnetti Marelli electronics go south on a blind curve

BMW's M6= awsome car, lots of power, handles very well, looks awsome, stops very well, excellently engineered and very reliable, however shes a fatty so it hampers that 286 HP but she can still carry her weight

3.2 Carrera= Once you get comfortable with the car you'll find out its a giant killer, its light weight compared to its competion and good power and engineering will usually come out on top everytime! even if it means trampling a fatty new M3 or Vette every now and then

And that's why we all bought a Porsche.
