Just off the coast of the Isle of Wight I believe, it seems to share the same kind of physics

I guess I'm missing something but why do people think certain cars can't be beat on this forum?

Where has this happened?

Ultimate driving machine ability or something like that.....

I kept up with a Cayman the other day (probably a non 's' - Didn't seem particularly quick). Not much, but I was happy

.

And there was a Chrysler 300C I came across complete with big wheels and Bentley badges. That didn't really go too well for him!

Other than that, surprisingly little street racing action

What is that 300c thing about i saw a numpty the other day with Bentley badges and gangster tints, the full bit.

Apparently to the non car savvy a 300c looks like a Bentley :confused:

.

My mother frequently gets them mixed up, much to my annoyance!

I raced a 550i today in my 328Ci and won.

When I say raced I mean I pulled up next to him at the lights; he went straight on, I went left. But yeah...

im going to glue some nails to the roads you child killers race on.

I absolutely walked all over a Focus ST in a diesel Megane today, did have to hit the boost hard but once I did it was all over.

Was it on the back of a lorry having been traded in for a 1.6?

Lashout_UK · 27 Oct 2010 at 00:05

I don't know but from the performance I think the head gasket had gone between the cylinders

Joshy · 27 Oct 2010 at 00:26

Diesel Megane? I thought you were better than that Lashout

Lashout_UK · 27 Oct 2010 at 00:36

Not much consolation but it was a Coupe GT version!

SeraphX · 27 Oct 2010 at 03:51

i've beaten a 911 gt3 off the line before

I had bacon, eggs and brown toast for breakfast this morning. Now gulping down some coffee.

Wait is this relevant to this thread?

They "are", even by the retarded definitions that were floating around the "what is fast" thread.

Even the slowest of the slow Cayman (the 2.7 Tiptronic) will do 0-60 in 6.8s and push it's way to 157MPH. A none "S" 2.9 will do the 0-60 sprint in 5.5s ( a whole .3 of a second behind the early 3.4S), and do 165MPH top end.
