Pretty much yes, bored of hearing people say they smoked off a car that has about 10bhp less.
A trip in a real car would show them what its like to truely pull away from someone.

in the right gear it might even out a bit, but you'd need a hell of a lot more advantage to pull away enough to say bye bye
not sure why you are argueing with me? but i am running a psi motorsport tunning box as well, which should put the car up to arround 184 395nm or so,
If he was trying, I doubt your car would beat the 197 in a straight line-- even if it did it would be by such a marginal amount that its not worth talking about -- and if you had to stop, or go round a corner- the 197 would have beaten you.
Either way- who cares?

my point was more to do that its not just old bangers that do this but rich kids that do it also not the fact that i lost him, i have driven a 197 and im more than aware of how quick they are and that on a corner my car would over stear into a field while the 197 shot pass.
