How superior do you feel when driving about in a car you know would wipe the floor with pretty much every other vehicle in sight?

It's a good game although gets boring quite quickly if your car is very fast. Like if you had a 335d mapped... or something.

It gets interesting when you see something you know would be quick and you wonder maybe if I was using vPower and the weather was good then I'd smoke him... but that 'might' be quicker...

You seem like you're probably a loser.

There is no equipment capable of measuring that sort of speed.

Sadly I can't play this game, as most modern diesels would leave me for dead!

I don't feel superior at all driving the TVR, not least because I've got a Passat Diesel which I drive most of the time!! But I do love driving the TVR, but that's just because I like her, not because she's faster than many cars I may meet, after all, I don't tend to use her power most of the time.

gentle fellow. You won't know this because it sounds like you're a good christian but if you time it right you end up with green lights junction after junction... you need more speed though, or else it won't work.

Oh, it's not the be all and end all... just a game that lasts a few seconds when you're not looking out for speed cameras.

It's alright if the motorbike looks slow and you think - yeah, could probably have that...

Edit: actually, the more the gimp in the leather reckons himself the better it would be to know you could leave him eating your dust.

I have a knackered old rover engine. I have no feelings of superiority.

I have kind of the opposite problem.

My tired old TVR 350I looks fast and makes a load of noise, but actually isn't particularly fast, so i look round thinking that most of the boring euro-saloon/hatchbacks etc. could probably leave me in their dust!

I don't really care though, I'm usually having fun.

Does not matter really. It's a realtive thing. Maybe if I saw your car comming in the opposite direction I'd have to think about it... y'know... maybe not... depends what it is... maybe I'd burn the doors off.

ditto.

my monaro has a minor rep around my small town for being rare and fast. this is due to ignorance mainly, if any of the mildly tuned ricer had a pop at me id be without a paddle.
