I'm not here to debate over weight on a 964 thats what I've seen stamped on the 964 porsches as weight I won't argue what I see. Please don't debate with me, Debate with porsche, I didn't put those numbers there, porsche did. Besides I was around to see the beginning stages of Eddies first porsche back in the day when most of you guy's didn't know Eddie yet for what he did with his car's and him being the street legend he is. I'm a big fan of what Eddie does to these porsches, that's what I am intersted in. I was looking to buy a 1990 964 and 3693lbs is the weight a bone stock 964 came in at I won't argue that because that what I saw stamped on the porsche as weight, I didn't put the weight of the car there. I just go by what I read. I really don't care anyway if it is sub 3000lbs or 3693lbs stock or not I don't have a scale to weigh it myself and I don't want to debate with you, so it really doesn't matter to me. I guess you truly didn't understand my first statement to begin with, the one you first quoted me on. Take Care...
Worn out by now but this isn't an argument about stock weight.... it's about, when trying to use 1200+WHP at thr drag strip, with a car of this length and width, what WEIGHT do you have to ADD TO THE CAR and WHERE in order to keep it from wheelieing all the way down the strip.... that's the weight issue, thus as stated, a "Vehicle Dynamics" quesiton and not an argument over whatever stock is supposed to be.

I'm a Fan of Eddie's porsche and the power he is making with that beast. Also, I was around for his first porsche who made him famous. Eddie use to be very good friends with my cousin...
It's is a simple debate

well, I am pretty much speechless, I guess, even though I never took off on a jet on an aircraft carrier, that would be my closest comparison. It felt like 0 to 1000 in no time.
this video was taken from inside my car while I was the lucky passenger in Eddies car.
