One of AJ's friends has a 996TT with a chip to raise the boost level, a catback exhaust, etc... his car should be on par with or faster than a stock Turbo S. We all met up Saturday night. I can't talk about it or the moderators will delete this post... all I will say is.....
Ok, and for us young performance nuts out there, can you answer this question for us?
How would a C6Z do against a Turbo S from a 60-160 punch?..
I have raced my friends 911turbo S several times from similar speeds. I had 390 at the wheels till I lost my tune...now i dont know what it is. In this video you'll see my racing him. Him and I are neck and neck from all speeds. He thinks my car is slightly quicker but I know he doesn't shift as fast as could be done. So I'm sure the C6Z would pull away from the current turbo S. Once both cars are in 5th gear it may be a different story. The turbo doesn't die..at all..in 5th gear like our cars do.
Mods..this was a run for a charity event sponsored by a local Ferrari dealership in which the cops shut down a long road by our beaches. We eventually caught up to some other cars but I assue you this wasn't illegal in anyway. No need to remove the link. Thank you!

Excuse me, but why would the DIC tell you to re-start the car 5-6 times ? What's up with that?
I may be mistaken...but he did not say the DIC said anything.
When you start the car the dash looks like an arcade game and it's pretty cool. It's neat to watch and would urge start/restarts for that reason alone.

Exactly- entertainment purposes only.
Yes, C6Z launches harder, but Turbo with AWD is EASIER to launch hard.

I had my c6 z51 on the track at a Porsche Club DE at motor sports ranch in Texas. I expected to out run the boxters, but i was able to out accelerate a 966 turbo. i was in the green run group, and MAYBE the guy in the 966 turbo was not accelerating as quickly as he could. but i would be about 30 feet behind him and the start of the straight, and by the time we got to the end of the straight i was on his tail.
I let an instructor take my car out in the blue run group and he passed EVERYONE

I have driven the Enzo and the C6Z but not at the same time so it is hard to compare. However, I think once you learn the paddle shift the Enzo will be faster. However, paddle shifting in traffic takes some getting acustom too! I much prefer the C6Z in traffic, which is what it is ment for. A used Enzo is about $940,000. A new C6Z is about $70,000. We all know which one we want!
You can drive the C6Z and leave it overnight in a hotel parking lot. If you leave the Enzo in a hotel parking lot it most likely will be gone.
You keep your Z and I will throw in mine, which is a whole ten days old. Give me the Enzo. O-60 times for the Enzo are about half a second faster than the Z06, low 3's.
Most of the 430's, a lot of the 360's and more and more cars are going to paddle shifters.
And I will take my chances with it being gone in the morning...that's absurd.

and I bet the chances of having Vette stolen are higher than Enzo.
What the hell are you gonna do with a stolen Enzo?
Sell it? LOL Joy ride it? ROFLMAO
The only way Enzo will get stolen if it’s getting exported somewhere into Middle East, etc.
Still I bet it would be so easy to track (1 of 399 EVER MADE )
