    He could advertise it truthfully, but "Third fastest street car in the world" really doesn't have the same ring to it.


    Frost and Lutz are currently faster and I bet Larson runs faster at the upcoming shootout at the NMCA race as well.

          The man has owned several of the baddest ass street cars of all time, bar none, end of story. As completely bad ass as the Vette he is selling is, it isn't the "fastest street car in the world".

              The magazine article states
              This isn't a street car you can race, it's a race car you can drive on the street
              That sums it up. And those back tires are huge.

                I wouldn't wanna buy em. One tenth that size stretched my marriage. And THEY were expensive.

                  pretty car, but I'd buy a Veyron long before I'd buy that (would even have enough money left over for one set of tires)

                    Fast is mph, quick is ET. Eric's Firebird went over 240, Mike's 4 banger went in the upper 230's both at Maxton

                      I think Randal covered it at Drag Week - Fastest doesn't win drag races, quickest does.

                          I think one of his previous vette's was a 100 pt resto. I'm tired of the lame title"worlds anything" That is all
                          used to be purplecobra, now just myself. I still drive a mustang!!!!!

                              That is a totally awesome machine, it blows my mind. Plus, it's not hard to look at.

                              But as far as the stats go, Dude didn't do himself any favors coming off of the line:

                              I'd say the car is quicker than THAT if he hit the start. Look at the reaction time. .5?

                              I'm an old man and I'm sure my reflexes are slowing down. But I could do better than that. I'm serious. Set me there and run the tree for me five or six times so I can get into the rhythm of it. Just so I can see how it goes.

                              .5 is just about sound asleep. I would BET, and I'm not a betting man...If I was to bet on a game of pool, I'd bet you would beat me, that's how I would bet. But if I was to bet, I'd bet I could leave in WAY under .5. I mean by a whole lot. I would safely guess .2 just to be safe. Just to be safe on my bet. Just to be sure I'd win the bet.

                                PDub, some trees are .000 is perfect, some are .500 is perfect and a .499 is red light. Kinda depends on which tree it is on. The RT has no effect on the ET or MPH, its only how long the green was lit before the car broke the beams.
