Oh wow!!! Thats hilarious. I would have like to see his reaction afterward too. I would have told him not to feel bad because the vette runs 6s.

Man, am I the only one who kind of feels bad for that guy? He obviously didn't know anything and was just trying to fit in. Don't you remember when you first started getting into cars and how fun just driving around was? I bought my 2000 SS at the end of 2001 and knew NOTHING about cars. I never lied and would have just told them I didn't know how fast it was but he felt the need to impress them I guess. Poor guy. haha.

That's BADASS! Reminds me of how most people around here are. Which is the reason I don't talk about what my car is capable of. No matter what you say, they say they know someone thats a few SECONDS faster. Idiots

I feel really bad for the guy since he obviously didn't know anything about cars and was trying to learn, fit in, or both. You have to start somewhere, and he wasn't cocky or anything. He even said flat out that he didn't know and didn't test it.

That song at the end during the race did kill me, though...I feel guilty for laughing at that part. Whoever made that video is a douchebag.

Haha that was funny but sad at the same time, I would have told him before heraced that there was no ******* way he ran 10's in a 1/4. But who knows maybe that guy in the mustang always goes around acting like a dumbfuck, in which case he got what he deserved.
