Default Physics experiment

Two weeks ago, I was envolved in a speed and distance experiment with a new Viper. My experiment was better than the Vipers, by a fairly decent margin. I got an A, and he received a B-. Anyway, yesterday I was looking through a local hi-end car for sale magazine, and the professor had put his car up for sale! Guess he was frustrated when a lowly C6 got better grades than his Viper?

This is likely a road you don't want to go down. Just hope that the boys over at Viper Alley don't get wind of this thread. Or we could all sit back and enjoy some while we wade through the pages of , until someone gets so frustrated they want to , and I can sit back and thinking to myself I told you

Sorry I just felt like using some smilies.

I think I've seen a VW with a jet turbine sticking out the back. The owner drives it everyday on stock power, but can light off the kerosene burner!
