Hearing how the rtres almost loos grip when you get up in speed, makes me wonder if you might have a couple of horses there that did'nt come stock with the car?..

Dude! That's some real Western cowboy kinda stuff. Way cool.

The first one was in your honour, David. I was able to mimic your tire 'chirp' slamming into 2nd gear. You should re-post your burnout from last summer. It was a beauty ...

Lambo, the previous owner kept good records. The only stock items on my Cleveland are the block and the heads. Modern, forged internals, bigger cam, big bore headers, Mind Trains and a 735cfm Holley carb have added horsepower for sure. How much? I am unsure, but I am planning a dyno test before the end of the season ... so, stay tuned!

By the way, my Michelin Pilot Sports were very sticky on this day. I raced a '90s vintage 911 Turbo on the way home and the added traction allowed me to take him both times. Love putting those guys in their place ...

Nice videos Erik! Of course, if we see any more driving like that out of you, you're going to need to change your name to either Will or David!

I only drive like that in my GT40.

I think you mean "I love the way hard-top Panteras with little shiny bumpers look".

Maybe we should trade? I'll even throw in the shiny wheels!
