My dad would be like that but he would be saying, "Ok thats enough" or "You know you are just wasting gas." I don't care I would be having fun :biglaugh:. Good find.

hahaha, deja vu... I remember back when I use to own my 89 VW GTI I had picked up my step dad at the airport, I was flying through the freeway in the carpool lane 2am @ 120mph almost riding the center divider, man he would tell me to slow down while he holds on to the oh shit handles... oh man funny times.

when I was younger, If I went 5 over the limit my dad would start looking over at the speedo and giving me "the eye". My dad once got pulled over for going "too slow" on the highway. :nono: . My dad has never been in one of my fast cars.

That video is cool though. I love how the kid says "this is gonna be a great video" :rofl:

My dad keeps telling me that hes gunna hand my ass to me with his new 08 c6. I tilod him id race him on the parkway. He was like "ok but youre gunna lose". I cant wait to pull a few cars on him with a 20 year old car!

But in relation to the video, I couldnt stop laughing at how the dad went from serious to having shitloads of fun. Great, great video!

Funny vid. I bet his Dad was kinda scared that his son had a very powerful car.

Reminds me of my step dad. He was bragging about his co-workers '95 Impala SS. He told me that my 6 cylinder could never hang with his corvette engine, turbo or not. I kept telling him that if he's stock then he's no match for me. I was running high 12's @ 111mph at the time. So I took him out for a spin. He kept yelling, "WHOA, WHOA, WHOA!!!!" I didn't even hit 100mph. Just went through the first three gears.

my dad used to do this as well....with that said, we're building a supra together, so I guess he got over it.

I remember these words:

The only car that best suits you is this one:

Acceleration 0-100km/h: ~3-4 seconds.

In other words: Porsche...

You´re not the "limousine-guy" and you will never be one, my son...

How right he was... now I own _quite a fast_ car... :evil2:

My beloved Supra :D

The whole family was over at my house for one of the kids birthdays and I was giving everybody rides in the Z, 20~22 psi. First my brother, then a friend and so on. My father in-law has a C4 convertible and says to my friend (while we are out on a drive) "Ill bet my corvette gives him a run for his money?!?!?" My friend thought he was joking at first, and said "What?!?!". He restates that he thinks his Corvette is a little faster than my Z. My friend, says to him (very politely) "I will give you a 100yard head start and 100 thousand dollars and he will still beat you!". My Father in-law says "Huh!" in acknowledgment, not upset, just surprised. I took him for a spin and before the first corner he said "Wow this is WAY faster than y corvette, he asked, "How fast have you gone in this car?" I said Im not sure. Hes a Corvette owner not a Corvette driver.

I took MY dad for a spin and he was totally blown away. I let him drive it (he owns a Z car I built for him) and he wouldn't even floor it in first and second. Rightly so, the tires come undone in both gears at any speed. In third he wouldnt even floor it for more than 1 full second.

Its so funny watching those videos, because my car isnt in a gear that long unless its 5th.

Cant wait till it cools off and I can work on it a bit.
