    Default When you see a fast car.....

    Hey guys,
    Around where i'm from we dont see alot of exotics and such so I was just wondering when you see a fast car at a light or on the xway do you play with it?

    Most the guys from here have extremely fast muscle cars and bikes but none of the expensive guys will play.

    I by no means have the fastest car and I know that, but I still like a challenge… Even if I know I’m gonna get beat I’ll still play just to see where I stack up against that car/bike…I’ll play most of the time, but it ultimately depends on traffic flow and kind of road I’m on…

    I’m in the same boat as you, but in lower New York…Majority of exotic and fast cars are driven by wealthy dudes who wouldn’t know what to do if they went past half-throttle…I know it’s not the case for every fast car, but the majority I run into, it is…

    id race anybody, but i am in the same boat as both of u. I do however sometimes come across those rich guys who do decide to play.

    I loved killing exotics back in palm beach with my procharged coupe. Not much touches a 9.70 car.

    Yall crack me up, wait til you run in to one of them TT Gallardos that will smoke the doors off your car. Exotics dont always mean fastest but its a combination of speed, handling, cornering, and looks. I know plenty of sleepers that cost one 10th of the price but are faster than lets say a 430 or a G.

    dont get me wrong i love those TT set ups, high hp cars, etc....but ive yet to see one take off from a light fast enough to beat most muscle cars that drive on the street that i know of.

    id love to see a video of one coming out of the hole from a dead stop on the street not on the track.

    RAW, don’t get me wrong I wasn’t trying to come across that any of these cars are slow. The question was posed if they “play”…I just said that around here it seems that the people who drive these cars don’t use them to their full potential. If they did, believe me I’d be getting upset a lot…

    Yep, the car was insane. Power and torque were decent, but power to weight ratio is where its at.
    Not even a tt Gallardo could keep up. haha
