Thumbs up Test drove a GT2 !!

Last weekend my good friend Atomic Z let me run a full tank of gas thru the "Atomic P" (2002 Silver GT2 that is currently for sale). EC told me to take it out and drive it to make sure that it runs perfectly-IT DOES. It had 3/4 tank of BP 93 octane and we splashed some Sunoco GT260 unleaded on top. Boost setting was set on low (he knows that I can get a little "goofy"). I drove it almost all day with several quick highway blasts (3-4-5) and always shifted at 5500 rpms. It pulls like a freight train, even at this low boost level (1.0 -1.1 bar)
Overall drivabiltiy is excellent for car that has such a high performance envelope. (Remember this car with better gas and more boost ran 206 MPH in the TEXAS MILE !!). Pictured is a friend of mine's wife who was at the BP when I was filling it up at the end of a fantastic day. What a treat !!

Must be nice to have a friend who would let you zoom around in his GT2. Are you gonna buy it? Sounds like great fun. I hope you get it.

I am not currently in the market for any car. If I was, this car and choice would be a no brainer. It is mint, low milage and has a really nice combination of mods. It could be a cruiser, a track weapon, street killer, whatever you desired.
This is a very special car.
