Cool so i killed a Ford GT in a drag race .....

Ok... not exactly a fair race so let's make it short..

today (saturday @ approx. 3PM) at Pacific Coast Highway in Newport Beach, California.

me = 2001 Ducati 996 superbike with Leo Vinci Exhaust (yellow)
him = 200X Fort GT appears to be bone stock except it's louder than usual (black)

So I stopped at the light @ Avocado, then realized a black thingy came up on my left, looked at the driver, he signaled to race, at first i was like "wtf".. then i gave him the "nod".

light turned green, he took off first and I got a fair start and 85% throttled @ first gear to avoid that unnecessary wheelie, then @ the end of 3nd gear; i look back and the fort GT was like waaaay behind..

so we stopped at the next red light @ crystal cove with cc estate on my left, the ford gt driver yelled at " jesus.. and i thought my Hiyabusa was fast, what u got there?"

i replied "stock 996 with an after-market exhaust". I added "dude this is so not a fair race, hey I've got a Ferrari 360 and you would eat that for lunch haha.. so don't feel too bad", the Fort GT driver then gave another thumbs-up, then we just cruise our way from then on...

so there, hope this story is not too boring for you fine people, just thought i would share here...

comments are welcome as usual..

Ole' Jimmy @ www.jimmy540i.com

(ps: too bad i was on my bike or i would take some pix)

maybe we should just refuse to reply to these waste of time posts, and eventually he'll go away. Does anyone have a picture of this douchebag? I have this image in my head, and I want to know if I'm right...

My Ride: It's still a nissan
There is a pic of him somewhere on here

Someone took a pic of him at some event and the face is not blurred. How this pic wasn't Pshopped to death is beyond me. My question is why two of the same car (360), if you really like the the 360 that much get one 360 CS. Comments are appreciated Jimmy.
