I bet you the "beast" would run circles around most MODIFIED Porsche's.

It depends on who your car has been visiting with. A 5ktq that's been
maxed out from Hoppen/Ned/whoever and with an appropriate suspension
would run circles around most stock Porsches. In inclement weather you
probably don't even need the modifications.

not as fast as you think.
