The horsepower race has gone nuclear: 2013 GT500

It's a maturity thing...I've driven some exotics, raced motorcycles for several years, and owned some high HP cars including a 720RWHP Supra I built/tuned myself. Personally, I'm not a brand

It's a maturity thing...I've driven some exotics, raced motorcycles for several years, and owned some high HP cars including a 720RWHP Supra I built/tuned myself. Personally, I'm not a brand fanatic, I can appreciate a nice car and I have no problem giving credit where credit is due. I've been fortunate to drive cars that focus on handling and cars that will snap your neck if you don't pin yourself against the seat and one thing is clear, each car no matter how fast offers something different. Again, the saying goes on and on like a broken record but yeah...there's always a faster car and in a lot of cases SOMEONE faster.

When I see people going on about how their car is the greatest I tend to avoid them. The driver's attitude is really what will prompt me to talk to someone about their car or ignore them. Hell, I'm happy to see the car companies building sports cars again! The kids that like to bash or figure out ways to convince themselves that their car is the greatest will eventually learn the "real" lesson when it comes to driving. Now, when it comes to racing, that's a different ball game all together.
