You jerk, I never get opportunity's like that. Did you get to hear his car at all? They sound so different then our cars when they are on it.

I heard it when he downshifted but after I got on it I could barely hear the faint sound of the high revving monster!

Bentleys are ******* quiet! I was cruising about 100mph one day in the Lincoln LS and a GT goes by absolutely FLYING! Didn't make a noise, I saw it coming up and turned down the radio to try and hear it, but nothing!

ls1s are badass, what I still can barely wrap my head around is a cam and some bolt ons can get you to 400whp!! Thats ****** nuts, cant wait to get my h/c, just got to be more patient.

Yeah, I was thinking this set up should make 420-430ish rwhp but now I'm not sure. I gotta find out how much those things make at the wheels but I couldn't find anything (the F430 that is)

Nice Kill

There is a blue 430 I see all the time in Upland driving like a mad man. I cant wait to break him off as well, LOL. Everytime I see him I'm in my Escort. I raced a red one a couple of years ago in my LT1 z28 and got beat pretty good but not as bad as you might think.
