What 911 is this?

http://www.carthrottle.com/this-170mph-r1-vs-911-t...

Title says 'turbo', but rear spoiler doesn't look like a turbo. (bloody quick though)

[thegreenhell]

It looks to me like a 993 Carrera cab, with the standard Carrera flip-up spoiler.

[monthefish]

That would be my guess too, just seemed to quick for a standard carrera (wolf in sheep's clothing perhaps?)

Whatever model it is it's driven by a prat!

Should be locked up for most of that driving....

The way the 993 Cab is being driven you'd think it's been stolen.

Coming off the roundabout at 1.49 he appears to glance the hatchback he undertakes.

The bikes are clearly riding like idiots (pulling wheelies and goading on the driver) and making it worse.

At least you can see the 993 reg at 6.33 'M777 MJH' and it's still on road (taxed until 1st March 2015).

Looks like it's an old video so the Police probably won't follow-up with the owner (previous owners).

Shame they deserve to do some time driving like that!

Plain frightening on public roads and I agree it does look as though the 993 clips the two cars as he passes between them

That has to be too quick for a standard Carrera, serious acceleration there.

Bikes wheely under full power quite easily, being a biker over the years myself, I know if your ham fisted with the throttle you can can get the front up.
I'd say the biker was trying to get power down.

The guy in the 993 needs a spell in the cells for that kind of driving.

That is exactly what I thought.
The overtakes risking a head on are ludicrously dangerous.

I decided that the bike speedo was in km/h as really scary speeds. Must have been nicked given how it was driven.

[james S]

I think you might be right - I can't realistically believe that car got to 150mph+ quite so quickly

[MajorProblem]

Or do a lap of a roundabout at 75mph.

On reflection chaps ,that can't be a 993 on a W plate can it as that would be a 2000 registration?

Fake or cloned plate possibly?

Isn't the 993 reg (6 min 33sec) 'M777 MJH' and it's still on road (taxed until 1st March 2015).

This ^^^^^

EDIT ....... Looking at it again ........ maybe not. That biker is showing and indicated 170 plus at 4 minutes 46 sec and he's right at the top of the rev range.

But you don't know what gear he was in.

170km is about 106mph which is fast enough compared to 170mph which would be beyond mental on those roads with traffic.

Regardless it was stupid and I also thought the 911 clipped that car.

[nsm3]

I couldn't give a flying #%^* what 911 that is.

Both needed to do time for that, I certainly hope the driver did, his number plate is there to see?

I'm all for spirited driving/riding, but overtaking on a busy single carriageway at 150 into oncoming traffic is insane.

Not too far in I was hoping for an RTA that only included the participants, if only to stop the fools.

[Scott Parker]

Biker speedo is definitely wrong, Its either in Km's or more likely the bike has been geared thus reading fast. No way he was doing 70mph+ round the roundabout at the end of vid
