.....unless you have a maxed out twin turbo Huracan or an AMS Alpha Omega but that's a different story.It's really not that nice. In the last year I have seen 1 m113k powered car. That's it. Srt's are everywhere but rarely modded. I have been a Camaro guy for 30 years so beating a mustang does nothing anymore. If people have money they go z06 or get a nice S class. Most,of those guys won't run you anyway.
LoL... if the road was straight and wide open, i might have.
My suspension worries me though. Two months ago, I had two of my co-workers in my car. They both never rode in an AMG. So i took a specific route to some place we were going to for lunch. It was a three lane street that slightly curves to the right AFTER one of those wavy road humps.
I don't really know how to put it into words, but it's like the pic below. Except just one "hump"...
From a complete stop, I punched it. I was already at 90+ when i reach the hump in the center lane. As the car goes over it, all of a sudden, the entire car shifted to the left lane! It was a close call. I nearly hit the center divider!
Since then, I stopped running hard around curved roads.
I wasn't planning to let off until about 130. Only cause the stoplight wasn't for another half mile.
