I've driven a '03 Cobra but didn't really go fast in it.
My family owns a ML55 AMG, which is about about the second fastest I've ever GONE in a vehicle, 120mph.
Of course the CSVT has been taken to 130mph on I80E in Penn (is that the right interstate).
Mark- details on the F40, I've heard it's one of the toughest Ferrari's to drive. . .launching, etc.
F1. . .YOU LUCKY BASTARD!!!

No pics, didn't go to the track expecting to ride in anything or see anything worth while so I didn't have a camera. -Mark
aren't those 1 seaters?

How did you ride in a single seater with someone? Doesn't the McLaren F1 has one seat in the center, hence F1? I'm just curious, they obviously could've added another seat or I could be confused. Someone please set me straight. Also, fastest car I've driven: DeTomaso Pantera
1998 E1 SVT Contour (Toreador Red)
