how are you so positive that your car only traps 115? Have you ran it at the track and have timeslips? Evos can be very fast ..I thought that Awais pulled on that M3 many times and didnt that M3 sell to someone last year?
Either way...i will talk to the stock 996 owner and pm you...

Like you said anything can happen on the street....
With these 2 cars they have similar trap speed why isn't it a drivers race from a roll??????
As far as the 996 I raced, it was an 01' with less than 30k miles on it....Garaged for Winters, good condition, good driver, etc...

- The top of the trap speed range for the M3 is average for the 996 TT.
- The TT weighs 165 lbs less
- The TT has a 8.37 weight to power ratio and the M3 has an 8.79.
- The TT has 120 more ft/lbs of torque.
- You guessed trap speed and reverse calculation math is horrible.
If the car had over 20k miles on it, the DV's could still be bad, and he could still suck at driving.

The M3 won I also heard Awais only posted the vids with him keeping up when the M3 had traction issues...
I'm in the 115mph area Evo with my mods wont trap higher than a 117....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_a6IsVijWw that 996 only had exhaust at that time of race. But then again wicked mike could pwn anyone in any car.. or so the legend says.
Wouldn't have mattered the 996TT was just plain faster, agreed Mike can flat out drive.I got beat by everyone that day, lol, here's some vids from my car, the same runs above, shot from my car, with Mike's 996tt are near the end.
