This past sat i was suckerd in to a little race on the beltway here in dc by a friend i a solara and a 350z. We enter the highway and soon as the cruising state trooper takes his exit the solara took off(pretty quick car to my suprise). Nevertheless I followed. This was the first time i ever been hind the wheel of a car goin 100+. The experience was one to remember. If it wasn't for one of my cheap *** hankooks needing balancing, I could've went faster for sure. At 110 this car is dead silent except for the tire noise and vibration. Couldn't even hear the engine all that much. I LOVE THIS MACHINE YOU HEAR ME!. As i started to walk the solar to let him know who's boss i slowed just a bit only to have both of us hunted down like dears in africa by a cheeta- like 350z that looked at ease as it passed us at atleast 130mph. What an experience!
LOL Not in the LS of course, but I've been well over 170 a number of times, and couldn't even count the number of times I've been to 150ish -- which is only the top of 4th in the Supra and only takes a few seconds from a 2nd or 3rd gear roll.
Edit: Here's a video showing about how long it takes from a high 2nd gear roll to ~150 -- starts at about 46 seconds on the video (though I'd never do it in traffic like that): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F37OOW8BImg
that is a pretty fast supra you got there.. if only it wasn't red
That's not mine -- I don't post up videos of mine doing illegal things --that's just one with about the same power and overall setup. Mine is black, which is the fastest color Supra, of course.
looks really nice at night time.
