    Well, i thought about it, but 160 is really freakin fast, i was a little scared, lol, there were cars in the distance (2-lane road, only 1 for me, lol), and i didn't feel like dieing just then if i hit a pebble or had to turn slightly, lol. It was probably one of the stupidest things i could've done cause it wouldn't have been too much of a surprise for a deer to jump out considering the area i live in, lol, but oh well lesson learned, right? :D. Ya it surpised me to be going that fast in 4th too, but it was about redline in 4th and probly a little less than 160, maybe 155 or somethin, but i didn't take to much time to examine the speedo, lol the lines were solid until i slowed down, so i just wanted to make sure i stayed straight, hehe. :p

    My grandmother is dating the guy who patented those devil machines w/the claw, that you put in a quarter and grab the crappy **** animal or whatever....

    Anyway, he's got a 355 Spyder, w/the F1 trans. He let me cruise it around Phoenix for a hour or so this summer. I never opened it up, but man was it a blast to drive. The F1 is fun, but it's not what I expected. There were some issues w/slowing down and launching it all out. I'm sure you'd figure it out eventually.

    Oh man the stares!
    And the Sound coming from that engine 8 inches behind your head!

    I've got some pics somewhere....I'll get em up.

    the twin turbo is a little trickey to realey launch off hte line with out boging the turbos but it is a real hoot to drive on snow driveing sideways down the road is real fun. i think he is going to get a new car and sence there is no resale on his car with 200k miles and the clutch has 130k on it and is in ok shape. i am thinking new blow off valves a new boost controoler and a hgh performance clutch and i will be in the 450 range of horse power and you cant forget the lowering springs and the cai and a super chip.
