And believe me its not that easy getting the same performance as an RT12
(which is half a second quicker than an enzo to 300kmh)

If the enzo is just spinning his tires and the TT isn't, he could have 800 hp and it wouldn't do him any good at all.

I spent a whole day at Hockenheim drag racing those things, and chasing them round the track, and believe me. They are not that fast.
You can see some of the videos from the day at : www.revlovers.com
to view them though you have to become a member (takes only 2 mins)

My 997's surgery is finally wrapping up... Protomotive ECU, promotive exhaust, EvoMS headers, and Protomotive-modified turbos. Todd's already done one such car, minus the headers, and it made >560 AWHP. I expect to see 650-675 BHP.
