Raced me a Lamborghini

[BoostedRS]

It was in the late afternoon in Bruce B. Downs when I came in sight with a light blue lamborghini. I mean this thing was gorgeous. No spoilers nice sleek lines etc etc.... So I was like what the hell I know im gonna loose anyway. Got up beside him. So I gunned it for dear life. I guess he got the message because all I heard was that V12 God know how many valves 400-600hp engine GROWL like a pack of angry bears. Next thing I know he was like a blue streak buzzing by me like I was doing 80 standing still. It was an awesome sight to behold. But hey at least I got ahead of him a car and a half at the beginning before I got spanked. At least it is an honor to race one of these exotic beauties and its not everyday you get to race one. This is my second encounter with these cars. The first was a few years back on Dale Mabry with my POS yellow automatic 1994 Mitsubishi Mirage. It was a black Diablo. Needless to say of what happened. Oh well....at least I can say I didnt loose to a Rice Mobile!!!!!

All blow - no go

[BoostedRS]

Its cool just to watch them get on it.

Yeah thats kind of what happened to me except kind of worse. I used to have what I call mental races in which I was racing but the other person didnt know and my brain would be the announcer saying how good the kia was. Well one day on my way home I saw a black viper that lives by me I pull up next to him and the announcer in my head starts saying holy shit look at that kia pull away from that viper when all of a sudden I hear the guy downshift and blow by me. Needless to say after that I never had another mental race.

[BoostedRS]

Somebody tell me what STREET LEGAL car out there can spank a Diablo?

[jim wilson]

epicman youve been watching too many john cusak movies- is the anouncer asian?

The new turbo porsche gets 0-60 in 3.9

[jim wilson]

FYI insurance for an 18yom with everything as good as it gets on a 01 911 turbo is 349 per mo.
If there is one ticket and 1 accident for the same guy(like me when I was 18) $1334 per month.
If you have a hypothetical situation and would like to know the per mo. premium let me know.

[SeriousDrifter240sx]

yeah i seen that light blue diablo around on bruce b downs around new tampa by muvico...i revved on him when my s13 was still alive just for a laugh to see what he would do...he just ignored me. i love revving on exotics and bikes just to see them take off...can can you drive a car like that and not drop the hammer 24/7? i dont get it

Jim-

Check a 2001 Camaro SS Convertible...just for yucks. Figure a 28 YOM...no tickets no accidents.

[Epicman]

Jim how about an 18 year old with a 1996 Kia Sephia 2 accidents one my fault the other one not.

[MitsuBucci]

I hate insurance companies. My insurance right now is COMPLETELY rediculous. My Wife and I each got hit within 1 month of each other. Niether was our fault. Now 90% of the insurance companies wont even insure us. The ones that will are WAY out of hand. Some of them wouldnt insure my car because it is a sports model. Its a F-ING TALON not a McLaren!!

sorry... this should be in Verbal Warefare...

Not if it has 500+ hp!

About Cornishcrxs race
I have a hard time believing this guy was giving it 100%. We are talking about a car that will go 0 to 100 in less than 13 seconds and has a hp/weight ratio around 7. After the launch all he would have to do is slam the throttle shit those cars will do close to 90 in second gear. Anyway props for even being close to this guy. I think this is the same guy that got his ass handed to him by a built 911 on Dale Mabry.

it was the same guyhe was on it.why would he get on it only enough to loose by a car and a half? then to it again the 2nd time?
it doesnt make sense. what does a 96 diablo
vt run in the 1/4 mile? not a 99 not a 98....... a 96.


------------------
rash is right

[VeeDub]

I dont know about 1/4 mile but the SV and VT run low 4.0-4.5 sec 0-60 times. But props for running close and beating him. I dont want to drag this out or seem like a hater so I will end it here.

BTW is it cold up there? Its about 55ish here. Damn I am going to turn the heat on.
