    Just thought i would start this thread to see what kind of vehicles you have been in that really were faster/quicker than our vehicles.

    I'll start that in the last year I have been in four vehicles that I would say would have kicked my ass in power. Not sure of year for every vehicle.
    Also claims of hp are by owners.

    1.) 1993 Corvette Lingenfelter motor w/550-600hp

    2.) 1998 Porsche 911 Turbo

    3.) 2006 Mercedes SL65 Renntech 700hp

    4.) 2006 Pontiac GTO 6.0 Supercharged/Intercooled 536RWHP dyno

    I was in all these vehicles and wanted to race GTO, probably would have had a chance up to 80 because driver had traction issues. He refused to race from a dig or a roll.BTW that was the fastest GTO i had ever been in

    The Corvette ZR1 Lingelfelter motor w/550-600hp. The owner brought the engine over 7k rpm and the car was a screamer. Never was in a Corvette with that much Hp.

    The Mercedes impressed me the most with it's effortless power.I drove this car and 80-150 was equal,again this is butt dyno talking, to my Charger SRT from 20-50 in g-force. Allright enuff of my bull let's see if anyone else has some stories. Owner claimed to have turned 11's in 1/4 mile before Renntech modified. He drove my Charger and was impressed for a stock vehicle.

    BTW Saw my first GT500KR and the car was sweet. Too much traffic to race him. Swear it was a convertible which I didn't think they produced.

    Ron, we're NOT talking about other cars we OWN...

    Translated: My family tried coming over for dinner, the Border Patrol caught them, and I ended up eating all the chimichangas myself.
