It is also encouraging to hear your gonads are bigger than Tommy's, you'll need em.

Cheers, tin-man[/quote]

blitzforce, one more thought, I have to think that despite all the bravado supporting this smack down, Tommy's gotta be considering he's racing his new quarter mil plus Ferrari and drag racing voids the warrantee, so unless he can afford to toss that type of dough to the wind, that's one factor that could influence the amout of pressure he applies to the pedal, giving you one more point on the edge scale. Just my two cents. tin-man

Fun thread. I've been unsuccessful ignoring it.

I've driven both cars. My Kirkham also develops 628 ft-lbs of peak torque, courtesy of FE Specialties. Very difficult to keep in a straight line when floored.

My money is on the 458. Just sayin.

that's what makes this smackdown event all the more compelling, we got two guys drivin' for big bucks and neither of them will back-off, well at least not so far.

That said, I sincerely hope both of these guys consider the risks involved and the absolute downside to this race if for one second they disregard the notion that we on the forum know to be very true being, "treat me with respect, or I will kill you" and pray that it will not happen.
