Fast Cars

[Shep3.0]

Probably dumbest thing I ever did. Raced Tawni and Adorable Amber doing 130mph in my M5 on 635 in Irving

Does Tesla actually plan to make it affordable to the public?

My Z51 7 speed C7 is about as fast as I want to go any more. Had it up to 165 coming back from Denver thru an isolated section of New Mexico around 3 am while back. Felt like I was doing 60.

Motorsport Ranch (MSR) in Cresson and Eagles Canyon (ECR) are the closest. I'm a member of ECR, it's a spectacular track being upgraded by the new owners, and is a wonderful facility, highly recommended.

As others have mentioned, the RACETRACK is the safest place to enjoy our toys, which is why I have a dedicated Track car.

Following are some links and resources, or PM me for more detail. Once ECR opens later this year after construction, I'll gladly host anyone who wishes to try trackday driving, or riding shotgun with me sometime for the experience (free).

It doesn't look like it right now as they're going up in price, that new sports car coming out is sexy and sure it can be modified for faster speeds

you own one of the 18 cars built for this model

Cars have been a part of my whole life. Fastest to date has been 237mph in the quarter. Trying to hit 250 this year.
