Turbo S vs Viper in Mexico


Performed on a closed track, do not attempt at home.

Pretty happy with my little Turbo S giving up 100+ HP and still hanging well. Pulled him up top a little bit but it wasn't on the vid.

996 GT2, it's got a Proto tune and K24's I think and the same guy (member here) has owned it since new, the Viper and I were definitely the low HP cars.

Damn guys, I wanted to talk about my car...

The yellow car is not fast, but he's on this forum. I'll let him chime in. My buddy walked a UR Lambo on the cruise. Until recently I had the fastest one in town.

Thanks. I'm getting mixed reviews from friends. The car came from factory with white wheels, door pulls, seat backs, and center console all painted at factory to match exterior color, as well as front splitter, side skirts, rear skirt. White deviated stitching, and two tone black/cream leather. Definitely a unique Turbo S, that's for sure.

Closed track looks eerily similar to the hardy toll road

Nice run... Is your front lip (passenger side) loose or is that just the vid quality?

Yes, I have a front lip problem.....

I don't know what the "Hardy Toll Road" is that you speak of.
