Well said; when I stop at a traffic light, just about every car or truck next to me has to floor it off the line. I just take my time, smile and wave.....

No ****, but every once in a while I teach them a lesson with the gtr700

Don't they get the hint by reading the license plate: "4RE ETR"

Stock sporty cars under $200K are all now pretty close in acceleration. Even the BMW M6 is nearly as fast as a stock GT2.

If you want something really fast you've got to go with reputable tuners (e.g, Ruf) or go to Super Car territory (Enzo, CGT, Pagani, ...).

In typical street race, all of these stock cars are about the same:

996TT, GT2, 993TT, GT3
CS, 430
Gallardo, Murcielago
SL65
Viper
Z06

And these stock cars are very noticeably faster:

CGT
Enzo
Ruf Turbos
Pagani
Ford GT
Saleen
Mosler

That story with the Saturn is too funny. The P driver stalled his car at the lights and they call that a kill

The other day a Evo 8 pulled next to me with a bunch of gauges on his a pillar. We were at the lights and he was revving his motor and you could hear the BOV. When the light went green, he floored it. I on the other hand went through first real nice and easy and then hammered it in 2nd and flew by him. The look on his face was priceless
