So, I was cruising in my Fast JDM-Like Neon yo! WHen I noticed this Enzo that wanted to run!
So, I let him come up to me and I just downshifted to 4th just to keep it fair. I let him have the jump and i punched it in 4th@40mph. At 50mph I started reeling him in and at 55mph I passed him and put 20 cars on him. It was horrible. He gave me the thumbs up and turned. He is lucky I didnt shift into 6th because it would have been over with yo! Tyte-like-honduh-Neon! SHEEEEEEEET!
Anyway...no I havent really ran into anything other then an NSX, Vipers, and Boxters. I beat NSX's and the Boxters and get beat by the Vipers...I drive a neon.

I tried to get an old Countach to go once but he wouldn't. Completely mauled a pos Porsche Boxster or whatever it was but that's not an exotic. I know Unit has raced a GT40 I believe but he was in a Cobra.
Ferrari 575M - He edged me out but not be as much as I thought he would. Maybe 1/2 a car. (note: that picture was taken while were just driving, not racing).
In the C5 raced a 360 CS and he walked me pretty bad
Also raced a 355 and a 348 and killed both of them.
Haven't run into any Lambo's yet, they are on the to-do list.

Raced one of these one time. He reved at me at a stop light from behind me, we turned left on to a straight and it was on. We were dead even through the middle of third gear before we had to shut down. He smiled really big and turned off.

I've raced a 355 and a 360 Modena, not to impressed i raped the 355 and pulled the 360 by a good 2 car upto 160 then we both let off i would have expected more form a 120k car.
I also pulled up to a Carrera GT2 and got my *** handed to be before i was even done with 3rd gear. Thats an amazing car.

I raced a 2001 Viper in my '95 Z28 a couple years ago. My Z28 only had a CAI and cat-back so it wasn't even close to being pretty for me. From a dig at a light, he had me by at least 5 cars to 50 mph, lol. Whats sad is that he let me have the jump.

It's kinda like saying F150 and F150 Lariat, somewhat.
As for racing, I found a older F355 F1 on the autobahn when I was in my LT1 Formula...we started at about 65, I got the pull (1-1 1/2 cars) went up to 155, he caught me about 120 and he was about 2 cars in front of by 145.
In case anyone wants to call bs...I had very mild h/c, free cold air, !Cats, EGR bypass, M6 and LT1 Edit, and numerous suspension work and a fake flowmaster sticker that was worth atleast 25+hp!!!.

Heres the deal with porsche newer line up
boxster= 2 seat roadster 2.7 240 hp
boxster s= 2 seater 3.2 280hp not fast but a fun car to tool around in and lots of dun on a autox track
all 911s are carreras now
996s are
base 996 c2 3.2-3.6 depending on year (c2 means carerra 2 wheel drive) 296 -320 hp depending on year, rear wheel not fast but nice and comfy cruisers and fun around a track more so then down it
996 c4 (c4= carerra 4 wheel drive or awd) same as a c2 but awd and although has better traction then a c2 off the line is heavier, and has a healty apitite for clutches
996 c4S this is a wide (turbo) body with turbo bumpers and wheels and turbo brakes
996 turbo is awd 405 hp-455 with x50 package twin tubo 3.6 bad *** car and I have customers that have run high 11s stock, chip and exhaust upgrades on this car will put it around 500 hp easy
996 gt3 is a race car 2wd 380hp na 3.6 it rides rough its loud and it drinks gas, no creature comforts here just a drivers car (and If I had 100k to blow Id buy one) really a value for a 100k for the amount of car you get
996 gt2 is a gt3 chassis 2wd with a 455 hp turbo motor stuffed in it. traction is a joke once boost comes in and the car is kind of scary to drive 2002-2004
997 is the new 911 3.6 325 horse much nicer then 996s
997 carerra s 3.8 355 hp nice car but id hold out for the turbo
carerra gt is the super car 605 hp carbon fiber every thing 205 mph top speed 447k dollars and you can have one if anyones intrested we still have one for sale
If anyones intresed I can go back and do the older cars too

My boss in Germany had a Carrera 4, his wife was driving it and I had to keep up with her pulling security on the autobahn...I was driving a VW PASSAT VR6...I lost her and had to call him to call her and tell her to slow down...he was a 4 star general!!! Not really cool telling him I lost his wife.
