Up to the speed limit, not many.

Over the speed limit, absolutely every one of them officer.

 

:D

 

Michels Supra :(, damn him

 

That would be normal from what I've heard of Michels car bud. No shame there. :D

 

Juanchans takes off like a startled cat at 50 to 70, the sod. Can't keep up.

Oh and that other sod Blackie, on the twisties in his back yard and had the missus with me and, and and. Oh run out of excuses. :(

She doesn't hang around when you give it some beans, that's for sure :D That said, I had the same situation against Gatso before he went BPU - I couldn't keep up from a standing start!

 

H tried to climb into my exhaust on one Pancake run in the twisties, but my excuses are: I had shockingly low quality rubber on the rears at the time, the sun was in my eyes, Jupiter was Aries at the time (which isn't good for driving, and Aries doesn't like it much either) and I was nervous about the dry stone wall on my nearside in the wet.

 

Non-Supra, I've had an Astra and a Rover 400 of some sort both keep with me to high speed, and recently a DB9 that was giving it some down the M3 late at night :D

I've never been done from a rolling start but I've been done at the lights a few times. Totally my own fault every time for not deciding to go for it before it's too late or driving inappropriately for the conditions. I normally don't really try from the lights, but if it's obvious anyone next to me is having a go I normally let them have a start before flying right by. On most occasions this is fine, but I have not been able to catch the following:

 

1) Volvo V70 D5

2) Audi TT 1.8

3) Lexus SC430

4) Peugeot 207GTI

5) Mercedes C320

6) Erm, what appeared to be clapped out Pug 106. :blush:

kept up with an Advantage once, great drive that was:d

 

Couldn't loose a suped up scooby, not sure what he was running, couldn't pull away from him at 1.2bar:search:

 

Got done by GT3 on the way to training, it sounded awesome:d

 

Other than those, tend to kill most things, even if only slightly in cases.
