Default Raced a GT2!!!!!!

I was driving down Sunset in L.A. in my black touring, with my friend in his 2002 M3 on my heels. Sunset is a racer's delight, lots of twisties and fun, and two lanes on each side for some fun manuevers. Anyway, we are threading through traffic (thursday at 10 pm there is still light traffic in this hellhole) and we come across a silver Porsche, looked like a turbo. We go a little closer, and guess what! It's a Gt2 (saw spoiler, body package, and "gt2" on the back) with 19 inch WEIRD rims, a 4 grand exhaust, black carbon fiber hood, and an INSANE driver. I pull up next to her, and she smiles, waves, and gives me thumbs up. Then... VROOOOM! she hits the guess and the car literally SHOOTS forward. My friend and I in our cars follow her as best we can, catching up to her when she goes around cars, waving like crazy, and then losing her again during empty straightaways. That car is demonic! I was later talking to a car mechanic I know, and he told me he knew of her, her car makes 580 hp and 640 torque, its SOOOO unbeleivably modded. That car is god, and rare even in a car city like L.A.

P.S.-also raced an S2000 (yellow) for about 4 miles, we stayed even on both turns and straightaways, frustrating for both of us.

Great story. Reminds of the the blonde in the T-bird in "American Graffiti" -- except this time... you only saw tail pipes.

Nothing is sweeter than a woman driving a sports car... but in a GT2... wow ..... extremely sexy.

Yeah, remember the blonde driving the Ferrari in National Lampoon's Vacation? Damn that was funny.

Anyways, this GT2 sounds pretty serious. Mmmmm, GT2.

Would you believe me if I told you that a grandmother owns this Porsche:



Unfortunately, it's not a GT-3 -- it's a regular 964 Carerra that's been stripped down and converted into one. Apparently, her hubby loves her alot considering "Thanks Drew!" is written in white on one of the panels.

From what I can tell, she's a REAL good driver. She also instructs for PCA on occassion.

Oh, I assure you it's not a photoshop. The original 1600x1200: http://12.237.254.127:81/unsorted/30a.jpg

Does the spoiler make it unbelievable? I have a shot of a 993 RSR that has a factory spoiler similar to that: http://12.237.254.127:81/unsorted/09.jpg Check out the built-in lift/jacks. And it's loud as hell. The driver has to wear ear plugs.

I stand corrected (edit:and apologize). The lo-res pic made the square and circle painted on the side look PS'd to me...
