Comfortably left on a new Porker Turbo the other day!

After rushing up behind me with his LEDâ€™s on I left him from about 80 to 185ish to the tune of about 5 lengths... so I did the gentlemanly thing, let him catch up, side on we went again - he threw in towel and let me go at about 160ish this time!

I didn't know it was a Turbo till I let him go past me down the road, he didn't even look across the miserable g1t!! Suprised me!!

Other than that an SL55 AMG - battered!!

Oh, staple diet, heaps of Focus ST drivers on the A13 always good fodder!!

I own both an Audi RS6 re-mapped to 686bhp and a Porsche 997 Turbo Gen.2 and there is no way on gods green earth that the Audi can get any where near the Porsche on any road or even in a straight line!!

The driver of the Porsche must not of been driving it hard, because if he had on been he'd of blown you away!!

to be far we don't know exactly which turbo it was mcfreedom even though the leds may hint towards it being a newer porsche.......regardless the 6 mapped is one amazing beast......

Couple of Peddle bikes, few horses ..... etc

Funniest was last week coming out of London late at night(around 11pm) .. me and another C6 RS6 .. "race" never went above the posted speed limit .. so mainly 30 mph .. however we both hopped and picked lanes at each and every light all the way from London Bridge to Hammersmith .. we both knew we where "playing".. waved as we got a car ahead etc .. both of us where laughing at the sillyness of it

In My "dreams"....... as I'd never race on the Queens Highway .. Mini Copper Works .. Few Evos.. Couple of Boxsters (I own a 3.4 S one as well so know them well), Various Mercs and WAY TOO MANY souped up "Fast and Furious" like hot and hatches .. all noise, bling and not much .. list would go on.. however it was a dream so a Couple of Peddle bikes, few horses.. you know ..

As I said "supprised me!"... must have had the mat caught under his loud peddle!

I appreciate he should be quicker off the line and obv round the twisties but rolling start 70ish onward a mapped C6 takes some beating.

Hey, it's 2sec quicker to 150 than an R8 V8 in Std form.

Out all of those figures, it's those for stopping that amaze me. A 2 plus tonne estate monster can stop in all but the same distance and time as the nimble mid-engined R8.

I got overtaken by a white van on my way up to Scotland last week. Admittedly I was running in my white (van) RS6 and trying to eat lunch at the same time.

Good night all round!!

Had some serious fun with my mates Gen two 997T tonight....

To 100 he could pull 1/2 car on me, max... 150 kleptons onwards edged him every time and I mean EVERY time like I'm scared of shunting him I'm pulling on him so hard... 180 on, he just wanted to drive my car after that, I was gone!!

I'm probably not top of the list for entry into Heaven, but isn't it a better idea to keep that kind of driving for the track?? I will often exceed motorway limits here & there but have very rarely exceeded 100MPH on the public highway.

At those speeds i doubt very much you have either the skill or experience to be even close to in control. If you were lucky enough to be pulled over before killing a few people, you'd likely not see the outside of a prison cell for well over 5 years.

I don't judge people so each to their own, but a bragging story of 2 cars travelling/racing on a UK public highway at speeds in excess of 180MPH does not give rise to positive thoughts.

If I were in the UK then I would have to agree !
