I had to laugh when he said he was keeping up with them. All I was thinking was "Buddy, you were only with them because they let you"

Oh, and he was mighty brave running his Cobra at 5800 RPMs for that long, being a Ford and all......

i think i was more dumbfounded by the fact he was doing 150mph (in a Ford ) while juggling a camcorder and giving commentary!!! knucklehead.

That would have been fun to do I think... The 5 speed gearing will top out at about 165mph... So I'd never beable to keep up... But when I did 150, the SVX felt so stable and happy there... I'm supprised that he got up to 160... My frined's 1999 Cobra convertable topped out at 147 mph... That was the speed limiter on it... whatever though, it's still a ford, had no chance from the very beguining against those two beautiful German machines!!! He was right though, they did sound absolutly beautiful!!!
