That there is a proper 911
I can only imagine how much fun it is to drive. Just a question, being as wide as it is and with its massive tires does it still feel agile throwing it into corners or tossing it around? Also, what speed are you doing in 1st and 2nd? They sound like deep gears.
the down shifting at 1.02 sounds MEAN!
Thanks

Thanks Hernam, first gear at 8k RPM is 72 mph, second is quite frankly more than I need at 123 mph.
The downshift to first is actually at :56 and at 1:02 I just did a quick rev for the camera...first gear at my slowest is around 25 mph, anything slower and it bogs down due to such tall tires.
She weighs in right under 2,000 lbs and is as tossable as any early narrow bodied 911. She's so light and agile it is beyond imagination especially with the coil overs at all four corners, the only thing is with 315mm's of contact in the front per corner, when you point, she goes and hangs on! Power oversteer is the only way to break traction most of the time.
