Ferrari's are slow...

 

jets are slow

 

this just strikes me as hilarious.

 

pfff i bet i can take the space shuttle in my jet.

 

360's trap nowhere near 119, that is utter bullshit.
to get a 3200 lb car to 119 trap you need like 400whp and the 360 ain't in that ballpark.
I'd love to get a shot at one and then tell him my car cost 9k including the mods.

 

i remember when i was like 7 or 8 and me and my friend used to think that ferraris and lamborghinis and vipers were THE COOLEST AND FASTEST cars ever to be created.

then as i grew up i learned about 1/4 mile speeds and hp and how these "super" cars are not as powerful as we thought.

if i had the money i would still get a gallardo though

 

hahahaha +1 were we friends as lil kids?

most supercars arent set up for 1/4 mile times do one from an 80 roll and see how you do

 

people dont buy these things for the speed alone....ferrari doesnt make drag racers

you're buying handling and performance where it counts

you're buying a name

you're buying luxury

you're buying something most people on TR couldnt afford...

pdisme has a gallardo...

but he also has a Radical sr3...

lets see your neon take those two on in a road course

 

i drove alongside a 360 one time.
it was cool.

 

who would agree that a ferrari or lamborghini are like the hayabusas of cars? going along with egyptboi's comments, how many people really race from 100mph to their top speed? now if a lambo or ferrari ran in a 1/4 mile, yeah, they are pretty fast, but not faster than some other cheaper cars, that are hooked up a bit such as turbo and built motors and whatever. but if you raced a lambo from a 80-90mph roll, that thing would be long gone.

now a hayabusa is a fast bike, but a cbr 929, depending on driver of course, would probably take it from 0 to 150ish. but if they were going to race from a 90-100mph roll, the busa would definetely take the 929 up to 170-200. i dunno what the cbr tops out at. i guess the point im trying to make is that, from a strictly racing point of view, the ferrari and lambo cars, and the hayabusa, are ultra powerful in the higher mph ranges and top end. not saying that they are also powerful all throughout, but mostly top end. now some lamborghini with 1 turbo per cylinder would be like crazy radical
