Guess what i played w/ today??
 
As im taking the corner near transworld, i see a red f355 spider coming towards me. He proceeds to go straight and i get on it. Im right on him and the light ahead turns red. I downshift to 2nd and it turns green and he floors it. I switch to the right lane because some volvo in front of me was making a left turn. Into 4th and when i glance down i was doing about 65 70 in a 35 mhp zone. Im right on him when he hits the brakes and pulls over to let me go. I slow down rev up and take off. Not really a kill but it was fun. I knew my car was fast but i never thought id keep up with a ferrari. Any1 know what a vert 355 runs?? My friend told me he lives in New Providence and has a red mustang.

They run anywhere from 13.0 to 13.5. Nothing too crazy, but fun to kill a Ferrari nonetheless :nod:

Rumor has it hes got a Cobra R clone which is pretty quick and only drives it on nice weekends. Waiting for the spring.

TC101 02-11-2007 06:48 PM

Ive never even seen a Cobra R on the road! Ive seen a Ferrari Enzo, but not a Cobra R.

98bandit 02-11-2007 08:15 PM

its a clone not an actual cobra r. I dont even think they're street legal. U seen an enzo?? Where?

Right in Brick actually. A big-wig at Verizon lives on the water in a mansion and has a couple Ferraris and one of them is the almighty Enzo. Its unreal in person! :drool:

LOL i saw a cobra r clone, minus the good parts. the body kit was a couple different colors and was a V6. i saw him around the toms river area near some mall or something or near some school up there that had a dome in the field or some crazy crap
