Is Porsche overhyped?

You and your ******* friends are truly moronic. Why do you all keep insisting that b-mac has an F40? Because it's in his avatar. Perhaps it's his favorite car that Ferrari made or just his avatar for the month. Yeah all the internet ego in the world won't make me waste days teaching you a lesson you sorely deserve and I don't care to take care of your family for you either. "I've been on Pinks", like that's some sort of proof or badge of honor. Anyone can get on Pinks as long as they have an old car that leaks oil and who's transmission or motor is about to explode. Nice credentials! If you want to drop by, make it happen, you seem to be a major player in the "tuff" world, show up with a car and If I don't beat you in every race we have, you can take any of my cars home plus any cash you want to wager.

PM me and I'll give you a location of the track that's closest and we can sort out the cars that will be used. It's nice and warm here now, no time like the present!

 

I'm going to ask the participants here to refrain from further name-calling (****-bagged, ******-headed, ass-munching mother****ers), because it is now a flame war, and not a legitimate discussion. If there is a controlled challenge on a track, with qualified participants who won't kill themselves, or others, we would all be interested. But, I say, enough!
Whatever points were worth making about the merits of the cars have now been made, and the thread has degenerated.
Can I ask the assent of all here to signify their willingness to walk away as gentlemen, leaving any unanswered challenges for another day (or take it offline)?

 

And remember ****** bag, you challenged me. The ball's in your court, not mine. That's unless you don't want to leave the comfort of your bedroom where you deem yourself king.

 

Double post

 

What the Hell kind of low life are you accusing someone you don't know of child molestation?

I thought you were just a poser (which you ARE Mrs. I don't have ANY Ferrari despite your user name) or a useless Canadian troll, but obviously you are much worse.

 

Uhhh, the ****** bag most likely is, you are most likely the one who trolls the schools for him.

What makes me a poser? You're too young to even choose correct words. I say what I mean and mean what I say.

If I'm a troll what are you? The same it seems.

I answered the retard who challenged me directly. If he wants to race one car against another or for cash that's fine.

I doubt he'll leave his mothers house to do it but I'm all for it. He can PM me for the details.

As for you and your thug friends, I'm done with this thread. PM me for a race and a car or STFU kiddies.

 

Why does such a great driver as yourself need to "sort out" anything? You bring your best rig and Alex will do the same. If you were a smart little maple leaf, you would join your son on the sidelines to avoid the beat down.

Good luck poser boy

 

Why retreat to PMs? The challenge has been issued and accepted. Just pick your track and car poser boy.......unless you are a coward as well, stay right here. And what is this cash crap? He wants your car

 

Guys, if you don't stop, some folks are going to get timed out here. Fair warning already given.

 

Getting back on topic a little, your post is rediculous. Any Porsche Turbo is WAY more than a GT car. What lap times are YOU looking at where stock Boxsters beat 996TTs? Yeah, none.....of course anyone who has driven both know that.

Look, Boxsters are fun cars......but they are made to compete against Z3, SLK350, 350Z, S2000 etc.......no way can they compete with the next level of sportscars, and they aren't meant to.

None of the people I know with Boxsters are enthusiasts, they are regular Sallys who wanted a Porsche but didn't want to spend 911 money. If Porsche hadn't underpowered the first generation they may not have gained the Porsche with panties reputation.

 

What lap times am I looking at, you ask?? How about some of these from short tracks that require carrying speed in the corners, and where balanced, lighter weight cars even with lower horsepower come out ahead?

Porsche Owners Club: (J is Boxster, K is Boxster S, L is 996's with 3.4l motors, M is 996's with 3.6l motors, N is 996 turbo, with the second letter as S for stock, I for improved, and P for Prepared - pay particular attention to KI versis LI, MI, or NI, hotshot)

There are three factual examples for you, but someone like you who doesn't hang around with enthusiasts wouldn't know about actual track times.

 

I love you too, postwhore.... I hope Alex accepts your challenge and shuts you up.

 

no neil, we investment bankers are smart enough to get by...but no...we are not too bright.

i wish for you, more luck than i had !

 

Sounds like the race is on. What is the hold up from a public agreement?? I love the escrow idea and will personally fly to wherever this is happening. Should be great fun. Can you say YOU TUBE?

 

neil,

well, i guess you are not a really nice person eh? i forwarded your nasty pm to me to the mods. i hope you do get a time out as your venom brings no value to this particular thread.

please don't feel compelled to send me any more pm's.

Sorry russiandude but if you call a 911 boring to drive..........I'm afraid its the driver (you) who is boring.

Anyone here that has pushed a 911 hard on a track be it 964/993/996/997 can tell you they are far from boring and possibly one of the most entertaining and rewarding track cars money can buy.

No offense russiandude but you really need some to spend some TRACK time in a 911 before you denounce it so quickly, you make yourself seem quite ignorant by making statements about cars which are 100% incorrect.

A Cayman driven properly is not underpowered and a 911 is far from boring.

 

Pete,

Back away slowly man. Those 2006 Pontiac Solstices are some MEAN track weapons. I am sure the last thing we will see is the Pontiac badge on the rear of this missle after he hits the NOS.

Whart,

Out of overwhelming respect for you, I will behave. I apologize to the members of this board who had to witness me stoop so low.

B-Mak & '62,

I believe VRAlex has overwhelmingly answered the challenge. To make this thing happen, I am willing to contribute to the VRAlex "Meet the Canadians" tour, and be present at the meeting for posterity. Furthermore, I will bring the Crawfish and the beer and we can make a party out of the whole thing.

Guys, we have been at it for a couple of days now, and neither of you have mentioned what car you are going to bring to the table. Let us know what we are up against. It is obvious that we have P-Cars, are you guys bringing Ferraris or what? With all the tough talk from both sides, I really am genuinely curious to see what you are going to use to back up your claims. So what do ya say? We can set this thing up, STFU, and let the cars do the talking!

 

God, I've always wanted to do this!

Just to defuse the numerous overwrought posts in this thread.

Bolting the Carrera engine into the Boxster is amazing !!! Our shop did one a couple of months ago.........best bang for the buck ever IMHO !!

 

This thread is crazy man, crazy! lol Chill out people! You know internet dung-tossing isn't worth the effort.

@shark01 - I was with you until this bit of nonsense. No a stock boxster won't run with a turbo, but they are VERY capable cars in the hands of a capable driver. And it takes a turbo before 911's clearly pull away from Boxsters and Caymans on the track (relative horsepowers of the umpteen power increases to both models making an authoratative statement impossible). The "sallys" nonsense totally robs anything else said of any real weight, unfortunately. All such venom does is color everything else said as insecurely biased. You may hang out with a macho crowd that eschews the mid-engined Porsches, but you certainly don't speak for many of the track-hounds I know (and I live in a very track-active region). I have seen quite a few dyed in the wool old-timer Porsche owners show up driving Boxsters (and now Caymans).

As more Caymans permeate the club race circuit, I imagine this assimilation will speed up even more. So relax. There is room for more than one Porsche icon.

 

I'm not talking about club events where obviously the 2 guys driving 996TTs are total noobs, but REAL track times run by professionals. Won't see a Boxster do anything there. And how do you know who I hang with? Again, nice little cars....hairdressers love 'em......but some owners have delusions of greatness....LOL

 

Cayman S is very well set up for racing and isn't underpowered....again compared to the competition that they were built for: 350Z, S2000, SLK350, Z4, etc. But everything moves ahead too so they still don't compare to a Carrera S....and a Turbo is still leagues ahead.

Guys are bring more Boxsters to the track because they're really cheap now. Wreck it, no problem.
