    Is there a video going around the internet of an Enzo racing (possibly being spanked by) a Porsche...? Probably a yellow Enzo... Anyone hear of this...? I think it's BS, but I thought I'd check with the experts first...

    You refer to a Porsche Carrera GT obviously... As far as I know, no...

    In the thread that contains the video of a Veyron, Zonda, Enzo and CGT it shows a little drag race between the Enzo and CGT and the Porsche pulls away.

    Sounds odd to be "checking with the experts," Carbon, as you're probably the most knowledgable Enzo nut I've ever come across. Have you tried Goodgle, youtube, etc.?

    Matthew, thank you, I'm flattered; but there are a lot of people on here who are just as saturated with Enzo knowledge as me. I have not tried Google or Youtube - FerrariChat is the source for answers to questions like these - Google and Youtube are just hosts to the answers. :)

    Carbon, think I found it on Google. Type in "ferrari enzo vs. porshce," and a link to a gumball video should pop up. I'm watching it now myself. The enzo is winning, though.

    Did it win overall, or did the Porsche eventually come out on top...?

    I believe there was a shot of the Porsche's speedometer, which was said to be a GT3, registering 315 to 320 km/h for a good bit, but the Enzo was always at least 40-50 yards ahead. This is the same enzo that reportedly completed a stint of the gumball with his onboard computer registering the vmax during the run at 226 mph. I guess you never know when you'll be going dowhill with a wind behind you. BTW, did you find it? I'm not sure how to post links...

    I have a video on one of my computers of a riced out 996 turbo walking RM's car, carbon.....dunno when it was made. the porsche is highly modified, supposedly makes 800 or 900hp. Not that it really matters at all, or makes the 996 any better a car...

    Wouldn't mind having it myself as well, seeing as how I'm interested in what car this is. Could you email it to me, too?

    There is a guy here in Vegas who I thought was LVEric for a while that has a riced out, powerful 996. I ran into him at Lamborghini Las Vegas the other day, and there were some Veyrons there. He made the outregeous claim that the Veyron is not worth the money, and his Porsche would spank it in a race. I highly doubt that, but there is a possibility of him racing an Enzo in it.

    Xico's car.


    996 TT

    charcoal. TOTALLY MODDED.

    GT3 Suspension, EVO GT something like 700 hp.

    Walked on the Enzo in every gear from what i understand.

    Happened somewhere in Lauderdale during a Poker Fun Rally we all went on.

    Didnt see the race in particular but know Xico and the car has attended many of my events.

    RM is a great guy! Dont think he was really pushing his car.
