is the roadster an auto? roadster + auto makes the car SOOOO much slower, lol.

but either way, a roadster is slower than the hardtop by nature.

there's a kill story involving a '96 GT with flowz and 2 fox body 5.0's at the same time that i'd share.....but i'm holding those out for later. lol.

you may want to consider monitoring what your car is doing if you insist on being WOT every second you get.

+1, you can hold the attitude too, we're all 951 owners here and we generally know what they can and cannot do.

BTW, detonation can happen once every minute (that is audibly). Trust me I thought my car did it very little, but little did I know those where just the ones I heard. If you hear your car detonate on the dyno you will know how much damage it is doing. Trust me I know from experience. Take it ez until you get it dynoed.

You have a new kill story every week seems like.

btw 96-98GT's are absolute dogs...I mean dogs they are the slowest of the bunch.

and older 5.0's left n/a are dogs too.

I say save your gas for something worth racing...and when you do it..get it on film.

No need for everything else
