Geof will become famous soon enough

It is a bit scary when you are blatting down the Motorway in the middle lane doing around 90, miles not km per hour, and somebody in a car similar to this goes past in the fast lane doing twice your speed.

My neighbor just traded his 3 yr old vette for a Z06 last night. Has all the extras, with 505 hp for 80k and a top speed of 195. I think the F1 is a tad over-priced at a million.

You're both wrong.

Its not the fastest production street car. It was beaten by the Koenisegggggg CCR followed bby the Veyron and then at 256mph, the SSC Aero. The SSC Aero is the fastest.

Well when your super rich a small million to impress yourself with superior engineering is a drop in the bucket.

It would be one sweet ride though.

Yeah, you're right.

Lets see... I can buy this here F1 for a million, or I can buy like 11 of these here top of the line Vettes for about the same amount. And to be honest, unless I'm a professional racer I won't ever know the difference because I could never drive either to it's potential.

And I wouldn't go as far as to say the engineering on the F1 was "superior". It may be "superior" to the engineering on my Alero, but it sure ain't superior to the Vette, the Viper or the Cobra, but it's agreeably better. (Or at least better funded.)

Now my kids are out of teenagerdom and I have at my disposal......

84 Trans Am......For nice weekend ride.....me & the wife...T tops out.

91 Camaro RS.....This kid does not keep tires.....you think gas is high .... he spends all his $$$$ on tires.....but i help every once in a while

And then my other son has a 64 Plymouth Belvedere GTX......dont get to play with that one much.

I about have my wife talked into a new car though.....I am trying to push her in the direction of a C63 AMG......then I can give the grandbabies a ride..
