When Porshe engineers came up with the 911 Turbo S, drag races were obviously not their top priority. However, through its collection of assets, a 991 Turbo S like the one we have here makes from a brilliant sprinter. Of course, this means that showing up at a velocity even in such a Porscha will instantly make you the target of tuner cars.
For instance, I've brought along a piece of footage that shows a 991.1 Turbo S duking it out with a seriously modded BMW M4.
While there are plenty of Neunelfer owners who mod their machines, this isn't the case here, so we're talking about the factory 560 ponies.
As for the F82 Bimmer, this is a Competition model, which comes with an extra 20 hp compared to the standard car, for a total of 450 ponies. Oh, and this is the DCT (dual-clutch) version of the sportscar.
And while I'm not aware of the newfound output of the Bavarian coupe, I can tell you the list of mods involves a JB4 ECU play, a meth setup, ESS downpipes, with the twin-turbo 3.0-liter straight-six now sipping on E50.
Fortunately, the two pieces of Germany got together on an airfield, but since they went for a rolling start, the Porscha couldn't make use of its all-paw hardware.
Nevertheless, the 911 Turbo S was just one of the many opponents the massaged M4 took on, as you'll get to notice in the clip below.
As such, let's take the time to go through the velocity tools that duked it out with the Bimmer (these are listed in the order displayed in the clip): Audi R8 V10 Plus, F10 BMW M5 (modded to a meaty 675 hp at the rear wheels), E92 BMW M3 (once again, taken past 600 ponies at the rear wheels), C7 Chevrolet Corvette massaged to 576 whp, the said Porscha, (ready for it?) Ferrari F12 Berlinetta, tuned F80 BMW M3, Mercedes-AMG C63S with upgraded turbos and full bolt-ons, another F82 M4 Competition DCT with ECU play and an F80 M3 with JB4 and sipping on E30.
So you should prepare yourself for well over four minutes of sprinting battles, most out which were captured from inside the M4 Competition mentioned above.

There's quite a bit of room in the garage that is this aficionado's heart, so factory-condition classics and widebody contraptions with turbos poking through the hood can peacefully coexist.
