Default My first ride in a GS400 SC-WOW!

Thanks to Mr. Johnson for letting me ride in his GS400 Supercgarged (SRT) rocket. I have owned fast cars but I have never experienced such a rush.

This car is stupid fast. One press of the gas and the road seem's to become almost invisible. The closest thing I can relate it to is Star Wars when Hon Solo would go into light speed. Who needs Viagra when you have this kind of power.

If you ever get the chance to ride in one of these bad boys it will be the highlight of your driving career.

Red face Gosh...

jimxo: Glad you enjoyed the ride. I'm just sorry we couldn't hit the highway to really let you get a feel for it when the legs are allowed to stretch. Plus the handling we didn't do too much of because I was worried about being in an unfamiliar area and the neighborhood kids and stuff.

So, you still thinking of a plain-jane 430?!?

There is a supercharger for the 400 engines?

If so, why not for the 1uz-FE non VVTi?
