yeah I hope I don't run into a twin turbo anything. But honestly there aren't alot of people around here with that kind of money to afford a twin turbo car. However I did see a black high 90'* model Supra and those cars are one of the fastest cars in the world. I saw my dream car today and it made my day, I saw a white SSEi and it was absolutely gorgeous. Can't wait to get one. So once I get into my ssei and I run into a base or sl 3000gt, I'll be somewhat certain that I can take them. thanks man.

Since you two were both dailed in at near identical times thats a good example of a "realistic" street race. But what times does a Comp G get on just a time run?
15.20 is the fastest he has ever run in the car. That is why that was his dial in.

I like the 17" rims and the paddle type shifters

I have my doubts about the paddle shift, something tells me its breakable..something about a first year car and lots of bugs in the design etc :?

Yeah, logic and statistics would back you up there...I like the concept, though...

Its ok to be biased..but I want to see the technology developed a bit...I bet its an expensive item if it breaks at all :?
