Picked my car up from Carlsen's friday afternoon. Proud owner of a new clutch and syncros. Waiting at that last light before the bridge and I hear the roar of a downshifting car behind me, and Im like holy ****e. (1st time Ive seen one on the road) Doing bout 90ish at top of highrise with him still right behind me and he decided to open it up. Flew right by like I was doing 25. Could still hear his exhaust from hundreds of yards away.

If only I had 250k to drop on a ride.

 

Nice, but hey you could have taken him if you didnt have to break in your new clutch.

 

No way! 11s in the 1/4mile. Top speed, way over 200.

 

OMFG are you serious?I was joking,flol.

 

It's hard to read sarcasm when you are reading something! That is why we have smilies! Learn to use them!

 

my top speed is 300

 

300 miles per week or what?

 

actaully if there was some traffic you could have beaten him. if your a better driver then he was. drivers skill means so much

 

I knew he was being sarcastic :|

 

are u being sarcastic too?

cuz if there were some traffic..they shouldnt be racing at all...they shouldnt be racing on the streets *period*

 

I'm not sure that qualifies as a race, the only time it would be a race is if it was like an Enzo and Carrera GT, or mucielago, otherwise it's just being passed.

 

and trying to follow after getting passed =D

 

I still haven't seen one on the road and probably won't for a while. Being that the car is a limited production vehicle and has a msrp of 440k, there shouldn't be that many around here.

 

paul you live in the bay area, who knows what you'll see....
in fremont, i saw an average of about 3-4 newer sl500/600/amg almost everyday, and an enzo at starbucks across from ohlone

 

the guy with that enzo also has a nice grey 355...or used to...maybe that is part of the enzo now..haa.
