Wanting to race a 996 TT

Hello everyone? How are you guys doing?

I am a new member on this site. Great site. I love all P-cars. I have a Z06 and I have been wanting to race a 996 TT for a while. I thought there wouldn't be a better way then to come on here and see if there are any owners in MI with a stock 996 TT.

I have heard both sides of the story. The Z06 is a little bit quicker in a straigh tline, but I have also heard that the Porsche is a little quicker. So, I thought the best thing to do is to come here and ask if anyone is down for some friendly runs and maybe some lunch or something.

I look forward to taking part of this forum. Thanks

I've raced an '03 Z06 a few times back when I was bone stock. From a roll, it was a driver's race as to who shifted the fastest. The Z06 might have had a TINY edge, but only a few feet. From a stop, a Turbo with a good launch will take it almost 9 times out of 10. It is hard to make up a 2+ car lead in the 1/4 mile when both cars are so evenly matched.

I race Vette's al the time with my 1999 996. Beat them everytime. But I also beat the stock TT's too.

Sorry you qualified to purchase a Vette.

Fadi,

Did you get a new car or something? Also, I don't remember your car being stock. Are you racing a friend's car?

Here's a post of yours from last year from ls1.com.
