RE: Cops looking for me?

Uh... no; my car is goddamn fast, and I rarely drive it so it surprised me when I do. What, a guy on a Mustang forum can't simply enjoy that his car is fast? Bunch'o'haters. And no, I am not 12; a 12 year old cannot drive... duh!
The reason I was suspicious is because I live in a town that is 29 square miles and has 3 cops out at any given time. In a ten minute drive I saw cops 4 times. I wouldn't have thought much of it until I ran into the third and fourth cops... and just as I turned off one main road to hit the nice empty connecting road, I pass #3, and then when I get to the end #4 just happens to be turning onto the road? Hmm... there is NOTHING on that road, so unless he was going to meet his buddy, I think I smell a radio call...
Oh, and unless that v6 of yours actually IS a gt500 and you have BIG *** tires to connect it all to the pavement, not to mention a LOT of suspension to put it down, then no, it isn't faster. Not many v6s make 420 horse to the rear wheels, but I could be wrong. Seriously, when did a car that would be called a 500 horse car if it was sold by a manufacturer stop being "goddamn fast?"

Wait wait wait...
TONS of cars around faster than my car?
No way. Just... no way, unless you literally mean tons, in which case fine, a single C6 Z06 weighs "tons," so fine. But you are living in a dream world if you think that.
My car, which makes 420 to the rear wheels, which is probably just under 500 at the motor if you figure about a 15 percent loss through the drivetrain, is faster than probably 99 percent of cars in the world. I don't mean at the strip or on this forum; I mean in the wide world. No, it won't compare to some built monster, but that isn't most cars; that is maybe 1 out of a hundred.
Come on, lets not be silly. And in the end, "goddamned fast" is a judgement call, and I am going to still say my car is "goddamned fast."

Seriously! Tough crowd; a guy just wants to share his enjoyment at getting out on a nice day and some wonder if the police were maybe watching him a bit, and he has to deal with a guy with a 700 hp v6 and some guy who just signed up a few months ago calling him a newbie?! Sheesh!
And I've posted in S&S plenty, no fears. I just spend more of my time on other forums nowadays, and just come by here for off topic BS.
Mr. Ridiculous V6, here is my car; I am sure I could get more out of it, but cannot afford any more breaking
Clickie here
And apples to apples; if an Eclipse and whathaveyou are still sports cars, then I think mine is still faster than... well, at least 90 percent.

RE: Cops looking for me?
when i turn the boost up a little higher i will have double the hp and more than double the tq of your car Lord Ashram. takes alot to impress me i guess you could say. I Know alot of guys personally with 600+ hp rides so in my personal circle 40050whp cars are a dime a dozen and not considered anyhting extreme. Not trying to hate on you personally. i was just poking a little fun and it looks like alot of guys jumped on the bandwagon.
