Well after the AutoX on Sunday, dmoffitt and I headed out with some people to get some food. We agreed it would be fun to see how my 15psi light-weight '86 would stand up against his 2.8L light-weight. Well needless to say, he killed me, but I thought i'd share the video. Neither of us could really hear my horn so Dave just waited for me to start moving before he went. I believe we were in second gear when we started, though I may be wrong.

What's he using for an instrument cluster?

Hey MPD,
If you had a K27/6 running at 18 psi,
things might not have look so bad.

That is a sweet exhaust your running, what are you using?

Is not fair David is driving a F-1 car!!.

Both are awesome 951's and that instrument cluster is so impressive.

Thanks for the video.

Nice vid and nice cars!

I believe that is a STACK cluster with a GT Racing carbon fiber dash.

Hot damn that was badass. Dmo running with no header panel? lol. watch out for bugs. I know the dedline has passed but, I don't care it is after all my video. This has to been in it.

As a tribute to you editing I will put it in the video in it's entirety

Funny someone should mention a k27/6. My k27/6, 55cc siemens, Vitesse chips and maf are for sale in the classifieds. I have all dyno sheets. 330/347 RWHP/RWTQ. In case anyone wants to liven up their car a little with a setup that is proven, no stumbles and no bull****. $1500

Hopefully I'll be putting in a Vitesse Stage III this winter so it won't look so bad quite honestly the ride I got in that car was the most fun I've had in any car, ever. Hopefully Dave can answer some of your questions. I'm sure the difference would've been even more apparent had we gone from a standstill or a 10mph roll.

Here's a photo someone at the AutoX shot of our cars in the pit:

Very nice! I love that rear spoiler on the 2.8L. Just looks so darn sexy.

Hmm Rochester NY whereabouts i may have to stop by sometime with my 951 to check out all of the nice p-cars over there.

it was awesome meeting you mike! i was running approx .9-1 bar at the time after the autox (since i kept loosing traction coming out of a turn and spooling) but i was impressed by your car's ability to keep up at first nonetheless. of course, as mentioned, i couldn't hear the beeps that well (the camera could though, i was probably deaf from being in that car all day haha) and just went after i saw you started, and we obviously both shut down at a very prudent, safe speed - from a standing start, which wouldn't have been good for either of our transmissions, or from a roll, which would be sooooo far from legal and woulda attracted far too much attention, well, it would have been a different story - but this does confirm one thing, that while the top-end power is just brutal, i'd like to spool a little earlier. no. a LOT lol i can see this being an issue at the track, either from the somewhat-unpredictable nature of the lag / latency helping to upset the car exiting a turn, or from a competitive standpoint later on, of the wait to start out-accelerating or passing someone, but for now, for learning, i'm going to leave well enough alone.

NICE!
