Question At least it was'nt a black audi...

Anyone know where this is from?




Is this proof a mustang is faster than a 911?
Where is the martini 911 going?
Did Happy hour start early? Martini - happy hour, bad joke, I know.

Martini spun, Nick slowed to avoid him, Mustang missed the brakes and rode up Nick's ass.

My guess.

Mustang is wearing sponsorship from NZ based companies, so my guess is that it happened somewhere over here.

that's correct, because the 944's corner better and were able to go around the 911, instead of over it

Not unusual these days...If the new Boss 302 wasn't covered in fugly graphics, I'd be looking at one. The "laguna seca" edition is as close to track ready as you can get while still being legal for the street.

Read about it here:
2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 | Bringing the Legend Back to the Streets | FordVehicles.com

Of course, it would never keep up with a well set up 944 thru the twisties

Yep, those optional Brembo brakes don't stop for caca.

Good thing Nick swapped in smaller 935 mirrors for the flags. Otherwise the pass side one would have been toast.

Here's my take: the martini car spun, this 911 slammed on the brakes as it crossed over and the mustang swept in on the outside and didn't slow down at all.
