What do you mean by "very healthy car"? Has it been extensively modded? The short fifth is nice on the track, but will be of no value in a 1/4 mile.

The young-un is obviously a douche. No reason the ever trash someone else's car, especially when they are both from the 944 family, which are both reguarded as NARP cars.

Hey, thanks for chiming in. I say healthy, i put new rings in the motor a few years back, and did some pocket porting casting flash cleanup in the heads, and it feels strong compared to all the other 944's ive driven.

The thing is, its the douchebags daddys car, so actually organizing a real race probably wont happen. I would really like to run next to it in the 1/4 mile, ive been racing for years so i can out drive him especially at the track.

his 30 hp, is worthless at the drag strip in my opinion, the cars torque curve is almost identicle to that of a sohc. But i cant say for sure, wish we could race, but thats the problem with douchebags, they cant even back up their big mouths
