i used to work for Chevrolet and been in the car industry for a long time, ive driven everything from vipers, to zr1's zo6, the Cadillac with zr1 engine in it with the 5 speed, Lamborghini Murciélagos and much more. the car that scared me more then any of them was a 91 honda crx with built turbo charged, b16/18 Frankenstein engine in it. my knuckles were white for a week after.
they call me the bloodhound cause i can track a wounded animal in the rain for 2 days when all it has is a splinter.. sniff sniff awooo

a 67 shelby gt 500

 The Veyron SS recently surpassed the SSC Ultimate Aero to take the title back, but keep your eye out for the SSC Ultimate Aero II, speculated to average the 275 mph mark. :o Built right here in Washington too. :tup:

It is rumored that they make their speed runs out near Hanford.

Most of the fast cars I ride in go in a straight line only (hopefully), but I did get to take a ride in a Ferrarri F40 and a Ferrarri 550 Maranello....to much for me. I would prefer something that can drive over them then out run them.

Also forgot to add, that while I am not a chevy guy, the new z06 and zr1 vettes are pretty sweet.

Not sure its fair to compare a aftermarket built car like that to a production car.  They are fun though, same or better performance and half the price.  Hope my car is close to as fast as that CRX was when I have finished it.  BTW for that price I think I would get the GTR.  0-60 in 2.9 seconds and all wheel drive, but the ZR1 looks awesome.  :drool:
