Dear Porsche Driver.....

Dear Porsche owner,

I would like to first start off by saying I am sorry. I didnt know that you thought your lightweight sports car was a match for my heavy comfortable American Sedan. You see, Chrysler fitted my vehicle with a 6.1l Hemi monster. 425hp to your 300hp..although weight is a factor, my car is just faster...period....end of story.


Ok...enough of that. Last night....on my way to Dinner with some friends...I have my friends dad in my car (the owner of the supercharged SRT8) and a 993 Carrera S tries to pass me on the on ramp. Let me rewind a bit and say my friends father is...how do I say.....insane for speed. He looks at me....tells me that I better not let the porsche pass. So I proceed to goose the car a bit into the corner merging onto the highway....it is at this time I see a man....about 35ish years of age....look at me and smirk....give a little laugh and then look forward while he punches it....so I do the same once we hit the freeway...WOT....Porsche has the jump...his little spoiler lifts up....and about this time I pass him....all the time while my buddies father is laughing...pointing....and yelling at the guy....The Look on the guys face (in the Porsche was priceless....he didnt know what the **** just happened....I stay in it enough to make a point and then back off (car is brand new) I pulled a good 2 to 2 1/2 cars between 50 and 120 before I backed off...with my 4200lb sedan.....I love this car already.......


And btw...It is already getting an exhaust and Intake today.....It only took me 3 days to start playing with it....



Cliffs

300 SRT8 > 993 Carrera S

Probably the Porsche might have the edge, but still, he bit the bait and went on to drag race it against his car.

We can always say try it on this, on that... but the fact of the matter is... it wasn't at those situations.

I'd rather have the 993 S, but that's just me... couldn't care less about straight line speed... had someone with one of those Dodges with the Hemi punch it and try to race my STi around a curve... was funny...
