oh man. An R6 is a car in a different league. You should be using a modded TL with 400 HP to go against that monster.

I own an '03 R6 and a '03 TL-S. I just raced a porsche 911 turbo cabriolet X50 package up to 120 mph today. Although the 911 Turbo is extremely fast (probably fastest car I've ever raced), it is simply outmatched. Even in the corners, if somebody knows how to ride the R6, the turbo falls pretty quickly. From a 5 mph roll, I'd say I beat him by a good 6 to 8 car lengths and still pulling. Keep in mind the X50 package has more h.p. than a standard Turbo (and this one had the yellow carbon ceramics!!).
