I dont care what your driving ..wet pavement is bad, and with that crapton of power, you would think he would be taking it easy..

not to mention theres often puddles with some oil mixed in which arent fun

you could be the most skilled badass driver on the planet, but whats the point of pushing the car in the rain ON the street...

So this car can hit 250 in under a minute.

Interesting.

And scary.

# Zero to 60 mph (97 km/h): 2.5 s
# Zero to 100 mph (161 km/h): 5.4 s
# Zero to 150 mph (241 km/h): 9.3 s
# Zero to 200 mph (322 km/h): 20.2 s
# Zero to 250 mph (402 km/h): 55 s

"crapton of horsepower"

Hmmm. Is this a new technical term? I AM a little behind in the lingo. Will I see this used in the new editions of Car and Driver?

I get lazy typing properly sometimes, technically this unit of weight is known as an asston. There is small, there is big, and then the asston.

If 1 is a small number, and 1,000,000 is a large number, 9327498237492379482398749832749237479+ = asston

I hope that cleared things up

I think the most amazing thing is that the car can go from over 250mph to 0mph in under 10 seconds.

That is some serious stopping power.

I dont think people that buy this car are really looking at the daily price of gas very often.....

its easy for us to critisize others, but we all know that if we're not paying attention to others in any condition anything can happen.....the other day while driving the company truck to get parts from the parts house for a job we was doing...i was driving down the left hand side of the road and another vehicle was pacing me on my right....another vehicle traveling down the inside lane going opposite of me started to merge my and his lane....i hit the brakes and laid on the horn...scared the **** out of me.....i was only 3 blocks away from work....i guess the driver of the vehicle was looking for something or on the phone and just wasn't paying attention....

Precisely...

you can be the most defensive driver in the world, and someone else can still end up ruining your day (and your car)

Yeah, I just thought it was crazy that at top speed the tires would only last 50 minutes and gas runs out in 12 minutes.
