Scoobs are'nt capable of undertaking Penny, if in fact that's you at all
Only Diablo's in purple and Porkers in silver, especially those courtesy tiptronic types are capable and do in fact "undertake", it was the only way to get past me
Anytime, any place, V5's shall we say ?

You may be able to lose a Diablo, but it is a shame when you have a shabby old good for nothing MY94 WRX keeping track of your expensive modded P1 isn't it???

Good to see ya posting Mellow, been a bit quiet of late which is unusual for one so extravagant as yourself

Look forward to going out on a run again soon once some minor probs have been fixed and my little babe.

Been kept busy as I have a new project at work and a trial secondary job is giving me renewed hope in the working arena.

Take care,

Regards,

Michelle.

In January I drove the yellow 6.0 VT that was in all the mags, earlier this year. My mate was sales manager for Lambo London.

This thing just warped space. At a 100, you could put it into 3rd and dump over 500lb of torque into the 4 wheel drive system. It weighs about the same as an Impreza, so you can just imagine the effect.

The acceleration in 4th felt like a Scooby in 2nd.

In 5th, its not really "on cam" until 150mph As you approach 150, it surges off. We lifted just short of 180mph and it was pulling like a train.

Also, the suspension is semi active, changing damper rates automatically, to suit your speed.

A truly incredible car.

Of course, all of this was on a private road, as doing this on a motorway would have meant trucks in the 2nd lane reversing towards you at 130mph

Thumbs up

Quite right Pete, truly an incredible piece of machinery, the post was put up out of fun, admiration and interest really, we all know the limitations of both cars, it must've been a great sight to see three great cars together in line on the M6, you can imagine peoples reaction looking in their rear view mirrors," wow, look at that.......an that......an that...! "
The owners of both cars have mailed me a couple of times and seems we have a few things in common, they may even attend a meet or track day !
Regards
Chris
