Re: Porsche 911 Virtually Vaporized After Hitting Tree At High Speed
911s aren't that difficult to handle. I've tracked em. Must've been some rich inexperienced nub or a rental. |

Wow, the impact footage in slow motion would be amazing to see.

The driver of the 911 should have called 911.

No matter how much you love speed, don't expect it to love you back

Re: Porsche 911 Virtually Vaporized After Hitting Tree At High Speed
I live near a road like that with trees, but not linden, they are old oak trees. Hardwood Almost all impacts are on oaks standing in, or near, a bend in the road. Drunk, weekend, speeding, dark,... A place where there is no margin for error. Last year in broad daylight a truck barely got of road, and merely touched the bark of a sloping tree, ripped it off, but still it got deviated to end up onto 2 other oaks. road got closed: 1 dead |

They even hid the flip flops to throw us off the trail.

Re: Porsche 911 Virtually Vaporized After Hitting Tree At High Speed
Probably took them back to their nefarious lairs, where they told their tiny wiggly squirrel kids "Hey! We got you NEW COMFORT KING MATTRESSES to snuggle up on! Hope you like them!" I looked up "Top speed of 911 in high gear at 4000 rpm", and it said that equates to 100 mph exactly, as it displays on the rpm gauge laying in the road. it might easily have been a lot more than that, as they probably took their foot off the gas when they knew they were in trouble. So somewhere at or above that, for sure. (Shouldn't they be able to look at the car's black box and read what speed, gear, and engine rpm they were at? I guess kind of pointless, but they should have been able to at least look at it.) |

Re: Porsche 911 Virtually Vaporized After Hitting Tree At High Speed
just see the excreted rpm dial: 4,000 rpm ... and checking manuals: Max. torque 800 Nm 2,500 – 4,000 rpm Top speed 330 km/h just googling it shows 4000 rpm was a treshhold in 2004-2010 or maybe later editions Even if the original poster's car is an O2S-equipped car, which it is likely not (he is in the UK), it would most likely not be the cause due to the fact that the O2S-equipped 911SCs have a full-throttle switch that causes the control unit to ignore the signal from the O2 sensor at wide open throttle (which a track car will be at most of the time). Pretty much any car with an oxygen sensor since the beginning of time has the means to ignore the O2S signal at WOT as a safeguard to the engine: a 14.7:1 air/fuel ratio is great for emissions but far too lean for full throttle acceleration. The A/F ratio at WOT will likely be in the 12:1 range for max power and to safeguard the engine from overheating and detonation. a noob in a well known car, which he does not know |

Re: Porsche 911 Virtually Vaporized After Hitting Tree At High Speed
Overheating refers specifically to overheating the piston crown, cylinder head and / or exhaust valves due to a lean fuel mixture, which burns hotter. Detonation, also known as pinking, is the premature ignition of fuel, caused by incorrect timing or lean fuel mixture. It can hole a piston in extreme cases. But it will not be the cause of an accident, just fuck up your engine  |
