    truth be told, I'm not against what he did.... but yeah, I've owned that car in the form of a 2006 GTO

      Actually this is not the fastest rental car. If we include lease cars in this definition my buddy Andy's leased Hellcat is WAY faster at 180+. He has not, however, driven it cross country (to the best of my knowledge - knowing Andy he just might). This is not to diminish the achievement - this driver clearly doesn't pee much!

          At my age my aim isn't all that good. Don't laugh - your time's a-comin'. (Getting old is NOT easy. Another reason I don't live in CA.)

            not laughing, but also not traveling where time is so important that I can't stop and water a road sign

                Not quite Dan - but been as far as Alabama from Michigan on the Power Tour. Hoping for nearer to 190 at next weekend's Bangshift Street Car Challenge on Sunday AM with the 1.5 miles.

                  Best of luck! I can't make this meet (Mutt and I were planning to go to Maine which has been cancelled) so the plan is to make the September meet at ECTA. Did you change anything on Red Kitty? Pulleys, maybe......

                    In a sprint my money would be on a Hertz Z06.

                      Raced against Bob Dudek and his C7 Z06 at multiple ECTA events. The Challenger is usually a few tenths faster in the mile, but they are very close. No mods this time, but I have some Track Tape left to try for that aero boost:

                      Gained about 2mph last time I think.

                        Aero is GOOD! I can't do any more with Mutt and stay in class.

                            It would be great to see such rental services on electric cars as well. Although, I have couple of truly good examples, from my own experience of renting electro-cars, I can share this rent a Tesla web service. I could rent Tesla Model S in the shortest period of time. In comparison with other rental services, it's way better and pretty reliable one.
