I on the way home on the pa turnpike and I see this yellow 911 comming up pretty fast doin' a bit of weaving. I am in the left lane and I yeild to him sohe can pass me. As he is passing me I notice a roll cage in the car and how loud it is. I look at his tail and it says GT3. My first thought is I miss my M5 (not that it could out power him, but more fun). I drop it to 4th and hammer down on the old girl (turned 20 lat week) and I get to his rear. I am egging him to hammer down on it. I get next to his rear wheels and turn down the radio (just to listen to his car.) I put all 150 horses to the pavement and start trying to pass him. He looks over and we just smile at each other. He down shifts and OOOOOOhh My god. He shot out of a cannon and was gone. Loudest 911 I have ever heard, no cats. He dissapears in the sunset and I figure he is gone. However, I catch up to him in traffic. I look over and give him a big thumbs up. Now we are weaving in and out of traffic but the funny thing is I am on it full throttle and he is just crusing. My 3-series is screaming and he is at no more than 3 or 4k the entire time. I still can not believe that the GT2 is faster! I have never seen one of those

haha beautiful. I can't get any good sightings like that. If i see a nice ass car, it is in grid lock on the horrible roads of NoVA, or the car is parked, in all the rich sections of towns. :(

How did the S38 revlimit at 8250 - I thought the dinan chip set the new revlimit at 7250-7500?

(My unknown chip in the M6 sets the limiter at 7500 - which IMO - is still too high. )
