I thought this thread would be a nice chat about the performance of the Porche 918. TM never fails to amaze as it wanders around.  Always a joy to follow. I'm sorry Ray, probably my fault, but in my defence, Mark mentioned speed etc Howard makes a good point, the first thing drivers often think about is the brake pedal when they feel vulnerable, same going past a roadside camera, even if they are within the limit, you just know the brake lights are going to come on when following. I just thought it funny whereas the lad had just been tested on how you are supposed to drive and then on his way home has that as a shining example  Yes he waited until it was clear to pass but were you dawdling in your 107 on the bypass? or close to the limit, I am quite sure that they are capable of 70 mph even two up! Performance of the Porsche or impatience of the Porsche driver could be discussed in equal measure

Not dawdling, i was travelling approx. 50mph fallowing a people carrier on a two lane road. Not critical of the driver, just impressed with porche 918. wished I was in the +8.He would still passed, but might have taken a little bit longer.  By the way the 107 is good for 100mph....with a tail wind
.+8 Now gone for a 1800 4/4. Duratec in bright yellow.
