Ok... not exactly a fair race so let's make it short..

today (saturday @ approx. 3PM) at Pacific Coast Highway in Newport Beach, California.

me = 2001 Ducati 996 superbike with Leo Vinci Exhaust (yellow)
him = 200X Fort GT appears to be bone stock except it's louder than usual (black)

So I stopped at the light @ Avocado, then realized a black thingy came up on my left, looked at the driver, he signaled to race, at first i was like "wtf".. then i gave him the "nod".

light turned green, he took off first and I got a fair start and 85% throttled @ first gear to avoid that unnecessary wheelie, then @ the end of 3nd gear; i look back and the fort GT was like waaaay behind..

so we stopped at the next red light @ crystal cove with cc estate on my left, the ford gt driver yelled at " jesus.. and i thought my Hiyabusa was fast, what u got there?"

i replied "stock 996 with an after-market exhaust". I added "dude this is so not a fair race, hey I've got a Ferrari 360 and you would eat that for lunch haha.. so don't feel too bad", the Fort GT driver then gave another thumbs-up, then we just cruise our way from then on...

so there, hope this story is not too boring for you fine people, just thought i would share here...

comments are welcome as usual..

No car is a match for a sportbike, not even a 600 bike.

Wow, amazing! Street racing is awesome and it makes you cooler every time you do it! I also think it's cool that you managed to mention you have a Ferrari, but like... in a totally humble way.

Of course I'm being entirely sarcastic. You seem to be a giant posing idiot, and to prove my point let's see how many boards you posted this story to:

I find it unbelievable that you took the time to hunt down all the occurences and then list them all here. And by unbelievable, I mean very sad. It was a nice story, on CAR forums, where we like to read about things like this. So, Jimmy, thanks for posting. I am not a member of the other 8 forums, so glad you posted it here. I expect 95% of people on the other 8 forums are not members of any of the others and will also enjoy reading it.

Tangled - you have a problem mate - just ignore the posts if you don't like what they say, we are all friends here, and nobody feels the need to have a dig at what other people post, especially in the lounge of all places. Chill out.
