Totally agree wit MZA, y have a car that can go to 300km/h when you can only go 110km/h

The best would be a car that can do 0-250km/h in 5 secs lol

yeah...300 kms/h would be great except I can't do it and if I did, I'd be in BIG trouble

Definately acceleration, I'd like to feel 5g's upon letting the accelerator pedal out gently

My car is in-between pretty slow off the line I don’t think it is normal might need service but from 100 to 180 it gets there pretty quick the only thing is it sits on rev limiter once at 180 plus I cant do it in over drive coz max speed is 160 if over drive is on an if you go to put over drive on once ur doing 180 it bogs down even think it might slow down

but id prefer to have a car quick off the line but only does 130-140 thats fine with me

How many street drags (not suggesting that I do ) require you to go 200km/h

Off the line again. I love accelleration, its pinning yourself in your seat that gets the blood flowing - or not flowing as the g's dictate
