RE: World Class Driving
it was today and i got to ride in these cars- Lamborghini gallardo, Corvette Z06, Ford GT, Bentley Continental GT, and a Maserati Gran Sport. I got to DRIVE a ferrari f430! IT WAS INSANE! the setup was, there were 6 drivers, one for each car. The lead car was always the ford gt and it had the guy running it in the passenger seat. We went on a predetermined route with normal traffic, but everyone would gun it sometimes until we got to the freeway where it was flat out catch the gt. everyone was doin at least a buck 20 (the freeway was not crowded at all because it was 9 am). I got the f430 up to 140 before i shut it down and beleive me it got there very fast. The x06 was far faster than i expected but i did not get to drive it, my dad drove all of them except for the f430. I reccomend anyone who has the money, do it. It is really worth it. You have no idea how fast 0-60 in 3.5 seconds is until you feel it, it is REDICULOUS! i will post the videos and pics once i get them on my computer.
holy **** i thought ferraris were just over rated and everyone said they were the best because they were the priciest...man was i wrong that thing can FLY! A roush stang and a modded sti tried to run with me on the freeway from somewhere around a 70 roll...the sti just dissapeared after a few seconds of the amazing sound of the f430 and the roush was like 15 lengths behind me.

RE: World Class Driving
earlier ferraris were a joke ...the 360 modena wasnt that fast ..but that 430 is a beast and the sounds it makes are just perfect. 12.1 at 120 according to M/T . The one i went in for a ride was the F1 version with the padle shifter...sweeet. I can only imagine the fun you and your dad had. Players club... i have seen that on a couple of Teckademics DVd's.
