There always someone faster, Ive had my butt handed to me all kinds of ways, but that doesnt keep my from trying.
My car should run 10s NA when I get it back (finally getting the engine builder to address the burning oil & other issues, which actually ended up being a rebuild.), and by the end of next year ill be running something more, looking for 700rwhp+. Anyways, my post was intended as more of a joke than anything else.

My brother-in-law, my best friend and I all went surfing today. On our way to the beach we crossed through a little upscale town(small, yet very prestigious).

As the light turned red the car in front of him turned right onto US-1, and just so happened to be an ENZO! These guys rolled onto the 35mph(in this section of town)street and decided to see what the cars did against each other! The Enzo OWNED! They then made a u-turn as we gave chase in my company car(Chrysler Town & Country), they got on it again from a roll, and quickly approached a 3 lane red light. I was in the middle lane between the 2 of them(To bad I wasn't in the Tour as I'd love to lefted by these 2 superexotics! The light turned and the guy in the Enzo had a little launching difficulty, but quickly made up his ground on the F-50.
Now I don't know if the guy in the F-50 couldn't drive but the Enzo deffinitely "appeared" to be much quicker. Jason said he recognized the Enzo driver as someone from the IRL.
Down here in south Florida we see our fair share of exotics, although most are driving regularly or just parked in a lot. To see 2 guys that didn't know each other previous to this encounter(they were acting as they were strangers), one in an F-50 and the other in an Enzo(not registered, no tag on the vehicle)putting these cars to the test on city streets was a sight that I may never see once again!!!
Needless to say I had a great day!
How cool would it have been to be in my Tour which has a turbo therefore it can get out of it's own way, to roll in between these guys and to get left by them.....maybe even hang for a split second... 
Thats odd... the Enzo has an automatic launch control which launches the car perfectly from a stand-still. Is this post even real though?

You know you launch hard when you beat oncoming traffic through their own crosswalk lines.

I'm perfectly aware of the launch control on the Enzo, and was stumped on that myself for quite sometime....You see why I wish I was in the Tour...I possibly could've hung with them for a few moments.
My thinking is that the car was new to the guy seeing as how it had no tag displayed.
Oh, and yes this really did happen.
Thanks for the comments.
