-17 degrees F
I took a look at your pictures, your Ferrari is a nice car. If you pulled up beside me, I wouldn't run you. I tend to pick my challenges. Now when it comes to motorcycles it's a different story.
I like to pull in behind a motorcycle at a stop light. I did this last summer and when the cyclist realized I was staying with him, he opened it up and left me quickly. However, he was exceeding 100MPH in a 55.
Another car I like to tangle with is the mustang GT. Most mustang owners believe they have more ponies than they do. However, I don't know about the '05 GT's, as they have 300hp. A co-worker brought one before Christmas, its a really nice car, may have to work up a challenge.
The only thing I can say about vettes and -17 degrees, is my stays inside. It was 7 degrees here this morning. Dave

That is the problem I have with most people unfortunatly. I do get to run with the sport bikes as they seem to be the only one up for the challenge but thats only in the summer. It was 9 degrees here this morning & I dont take much out of the garage on days like this either. My Spider with pull 0 - 60 in 4.2 but I've tried & can only get it to do about 4.8 - 4.9 acourding to the stop watch I use. She will run at a top speed of 195mph from what the specs say but I've only had the guts to push to 165mph & at that piont all they kept running threw mt head is if I get cought they are going to tow me & this car will not be towed which means I'd have to run em & i'm to old for that stuff anymore. The one nice thing about the car is when I 'm on the highway, the cars infront of me in the passing lane immediatly pull over even if I'm driving casually so it's kinda like driving an ambulance.

Stand by.
It is a link to a Dodge diesel truck racing a Cobra Mustang and beating him with an ET of 11.04. I'll find a working link, just a minute. (I'm on my dial up at home right now.)

Anyway, 11.04 sec is seriously fast for even a modified muscle car. That's getting down close to the sport bike range of 10 seconds or so.
