Bucket List - Indy Car Style
Sorry...may be a little off topic.
Just got back from 10 days in Vegas. Had to cross a few items off my bucket list. Doing 150mph in an Indy Car (solo) around bank 1 was AWESOME!!! Unfortonatley the cars have governors on them so I couldnt get it up to 200mph. Exceptional handling. Holly crap...I have to do it again!!! Its a MUST do. Vrooooooooooooooooooooooooooom!!!

That's insane! I bet it was a helluva experience. I was invited to the AMG Test-Drive (Track day) thing, which isn't nearly as extreme, but I had to cancel as I couldn't make it, sucks.

Well 1.1 seconds in 0-60 is a pretty huge margin. But yeah, the E550 certainly holds its own.

On that note, I can't stand the Gallardo, personally.
