When he asked how fast and I told him he replied. "IT didn't feel like we were going faster than 70 or 80. This is the fastest that I have ever been." I asked if he would like to drive back to Thomasville and he did. "How fast can I drive?" He asked. "It's your ticket, as fast as you want." He took it to 145 and said it felt like 35 to 40 in other cars.
MAYBE IT WAS ONLY GOING 35 - 40? GEARING PROBLEM? THIS MAY BE WHY REAL SUPERCARS ARE SUPERIOR, BECAUSE PANTERAS ARE REALLY SLOWER.
Yeah, right on Speed! I have a ricer with 510hp and blow these old farts away.I mean hey,there wasn't even a Pantera in that movie "fast and furious". What a bunch of dummies for buying a car that is fast, exotic and still smokin after 30 years. I have to go now, my Mommy is calling me for dinner.I'll be back later to talk some more nonsense.
