2002 SS vs. Porsche Cayman S
Ran into a Porsche Cayman S last night on the highway (sharp looking car). I saw it in the rear view and he was coming up on me pretty hard. He gave me a quick blow by and I caught back up to him. By the time I made it to his door, we were around 90 mph. We stayed side by side for a quick second and he jumped on it. I ripped it into 4th, ran through the band and shifted to 5th around 130+ mph and I had 2 - 3 lengths on him already. Since he jumped first, I was really surprised to see how quickly I pulled him in. We slowed back down for a merge and ran it again from around 60 mph and this time I got a better jump and beat him by roughly 4 car lengths by the time I hit 110 mph. The guy caught back up and gave me a thumbs up and I offered the same! This is one of the first Porsche drivers (other than the folks in the Boxters) that even gave me the time of day…..he seemed like a pretty cool guy and it definitely made my ride back from the shop a LOT more interesting!

Sorry if I sound a bit ignorant here, but who's Cassie?
As a relative newbie to the board, I guess I missed something.

I haven't had a chance to race yet. I didn't know our cars can go all the way up to 130 in 4th. Are you sure about that? You shifted into 5th at
130+ ???
