Default O.T. Just got terrified in a Carrera 4S
I have just had the living S*** scared out of me! I dropped the 944 off at my business partners workplace and drove his Merc to his house. We did some work on some new gates, had lunch and then.................................................................... ..............
He drove me back into town in his Carrera 4S!
The man is an absolute lunatic! But I knew that anyway!
He has done all the advanced Porsche driver traing stuff and can drive like a race car driver, but, 140km/hr in the 80km/hr zone and topping out at 189km/hr on the highway, in traffic!
Sorry Kevin, this even outdos the ride in the 951 on the freeway!
Funnily enough, I dont remember my hair being this white when I got out of bed this morning?

step one for making a 951 feel like a bike on the freeway- lower it until you cant get a conventional jack under the sides or the front.


Edit- i need to get myself a ride in a C4S. anyone in the sac area wanna offer?

I got to sit in a new C4S last night, and start it up to play with the Sport exhaust - pretty cool, nice and growly. $102,080

Yeah, people do say that occasionally to make themselves feel better.

Yea the 997S is a pretty amazing car. Pulls a mid 12 second quarter with no turbos. Daddy like.

I have gotten a ride once in a 996 C4S, around the Nordschleife for a few laps. Very nice car!
