Adolescent Behavior

This morning, 10 grown men engaged in the ancient art of street racing.

Below is a clip of me in my 997TT with BBI Stage II going against a 675 hp modified Lambo LP640 and a Promotive 997TT running at over 700 hp. I had a passenger and was running a full tank of pump gas (I know - excuses, excuses!). I tried to hold my own. More videos to come.

Don't try this at home.

Crazy.

Barrister, you have too much time on your hands.










BTW, that's a sick video.

LOL. Everyone had their own car. Maybe if the Promotive Turbo had 4 guys in it I could have beaten him!

That was from a roll at about 5-10 mph - not a dead stop.

Damn that Promotive 997TT just plain LAUNCHED. The Lambo sounded great too. All of you have nice cars.

Cool video, keep it safe guys and don't get your cars impounded.
