@ stratman_001:

sometimes they are ****ty things, other times I have a Evo 8 up my ass.
There's more to it than just getting to the edge, it's putting the power onto them and braking.

Fast 4 wheel drive car like that will be a challenge if driver knows what he's about. If he is up your ass point is proven, let him by!

Not quite as funny as the ECU driller killer though.

I would say im fine with the breaking and accelerating out of corners and such, obviously not perfect but not sh*t! and yeah SV's will struggle with car's like that. Me and my mate had a race in a straight line when it was quiet and no one was about. He has a Subaru Impreza STI 310bhp 04 plate. He couldn't keep up with me from around 0-90 mph, after 100 mph he was right up my rear. And could have easily passed

First piece of really good advice in this thread.

Grow up. Trying to be the fastest is a sure way to end up in an early grave, especially on 2 wheels.
