Got smoked by an E55

[LitemUp]

Driving home yesterday from the Home Depot got on the highway. He was on my ass big time so drop it into 3rd and dump the clutch and he just walked me big time to my disbelief. I find out later that the E55 is heavily modded exhaust, pulley, tune, NOS, etc. which runs 11.7x

Oh well, I just gotting keep modding I guess

I hate to admit it, but yep. Oh I forgot to mention that 11.7x was on street tires. That thing was "f"ing fast. This was unconfirmed but I was told he's putting down 700+ to the tires.

Don't worry mate. There are always faster cars out there (unless you own the worlds fastest street car - in the UK). So don't worry. You were probably too focused to notice the worked Nissan Skyline Godzilla GT-R 32 on your inside lane who is probably writing this exact same topic on his Nissan board LMAO.

Chin up, you drive a MOPAR. :rock:

I'm guessing the title will be mailed in 12 months time after you clear $26K. LOL

How fast were going?-dead stop or roll ?:dontknow:
I,m sure if you met on 95 and started at 80 mph roll,the results would be a little different!!!! I think they are speed limited to 150-:dontknow:
If so,then you catch him and pass him!!!
