Me vs. Panoz Esperante

Thought it'd be close but it wasn't.

From 40 I put 5-6 cars on him to 120. Same from 60. I know they only have a 4.6, but I'd expect a $90,000 car to do better.

Let me know what you think.

I think this thread is worthless without pics/video. That's what I think!

You were surprised to beat a car that at the very least is 300lbs more than your car and likely has less horsepower?

zOMG, a car that weighs more but less horsepower than his car but coauthor so much could never lose to a Cobalt. Pictures have to be show of him in your rearview or else CSS will be disappointed.
**** people on here get annoying. Say good run and move on.

The point is a guy with a $90,000 car was being cocky and got embarrassed by my hail damaged $18,000 cobalt.
