Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

yesterday coming up 287 in NJ I saw a Tetarossa (or maybe a 512TR, I couldnt tell) up a head, i quickly hopped in the left to pull up to take a better look. He moved in left as well and must have noticed me cause he floored it, and I quickly followed suit. From about 70 mph to 110 i hung on not losing or gaining an inch. After that we slowed down as he started bearing left to get on 22 and I kept straight, we did a friendly wave. I was surprised that I was able to hang with that V12 5 liter motor, that I believe is pushing 400+ hp. How much does one of those cars weigh? I would think that car could blow me away.

POST 2Original post

His foot was not on the floor or he would've left you pretty hard. Also, he might've just hit it in 5th gear without downshifting, which would give you the advantage since you were probably in your power band.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

i sure was, i was in 3rd at the time (maybe 4th), prob around 5k rpms, i cant rememeber, as it all happened so fast. he definitly floored it, as you saw the car shoot forward like a rocket .. i must have been in the right gear

POST 4Original post

Isn't that how all Ferrari's change lanes?!?! LOL!

POST 5Original post

from what I hear, early model testarossa's are not fast at all...A chocolate colored one tried raced me in my SLK a few years ago, older model like the one Don Johnson used to drive. He was pulling, but nothing like I would expect. He must have stalled because suddenly he was coasting in neutral looking for a clean part of the shoulder to go on. The 512 is definately a monster, but still cannot handle compared to a 996.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
