Boxter S - 295hp, 251tq, 0-60 5.2sec, $55,500
Now, the "beating the 6.0 GTO" I can not explain.......

OK, so race already and post the results. I'm tired of all this talk and no results. Its 12 pages, you know! Victor, get your clutch ready. Shane, get ready and race. I get the feeling your getting scared with that whole "What rims are you running thing?". My guess is the car belonged to a knowledgeable person and has internal mods to it like maybe higher compression ratio and cams. Maybe an ECU tune. Also I subscribe to the theory that he has the 3.9 FD and a good LSD.
He has not stated his age, but sounds like he has experience with RWD cars with manual tranny so spinning tires and shifting should not be an issue. Lets do a voting section: My $10 goes to Rich. Send me the mo' by Paypal, please.

Lmao. Ok we'll Me , Shane, and Victor met up last night. We just chilled. We tried doing a run but unfortunately the road was ****in way to slippery due to weather conditions and me and Shane just stayed spinning on the light. BUT we'll gather up tonight again, and hopefully we can do a clean friendly race. not only that but buddy over here was a lil tipsy
I do have do admitt though, Shane...your Z is pretty quick. (specially now that I know what's under your hood)

Oh, so Shane is pulling! I may be loosing $10 after all. Oh well, seems like he was stock after all like some thought. Is like one guy said, maybe he was racing 350hp GTO's and Boxters. We'll see how it goes today.
Keep us posted.
Keep us posted.

I can't believe I wasted this much of my life reading this thread. The whole thing is pointless anyways, since even if Richy does win, he still doesn't know WTF mods he has... just that it isn't stock, or that he's a significantly better driver. You have to take that car of yours to someone who knows something.
Well one plus is that you got to meet and hang out with some fellow Z owners.

at 80mph a stock diff should be at 3000rpm's
if your is different, your diff is not stock.
also, racing from a dig will involve too much driver
do a highway run both going the same speed and in the same gear.
that way you guys wont have to worry about one getting a better start than the other.

I'm back! yeah, the roads were definately cold, if not somewhat wet. Richy's car does seem to get off the line pretty quickly as he has 17" rims and I have 19's. To clarify, he and I did spin our tires pretty much all the way across the intersection, but I have to say, I stayed in the lead from launch to finish. I launched at 1,500 RPM's. I could hear Richy's stereo as we cruised down the streets too. Nice bumps bro..

Richy, go look at your tach and tell us all where the redline starts..
He could rev to 7 rpm's with an ECU re-flash as well, and not have the rev up motor, which is more likely.
Hey somebody try to clock a 0-60 for richy tonite. If he gets's anywhere close to a 4.2, I will be the site a round of beers.

Ken (thinks 5.2 seconds is 'close' to 4.2 seconds)
