I post a plauseable thread but yet again like most on here they turn into slanging matches.

On a serious note...
A mate of a mate has one...I have seen him driving it at close quarters...and they do sound very loud even when driving normally...
I think this is the case...

Thread Yes
Plausible No
Its simple physics my friend...read the petrol specs of the RR on that link...if he was pushing it as you say he has more than enough power to beat you quite easily...that is a plausible explanation...
I am not questioning you "beat" him off the lights...im merely questioning that he probably wasnt pushing his RR to anywhere near its limits..
Your story is not plausible given the facts

Surely the figures on that website are wrong? It takes 7.2 to 0-60 but 7.8 0-100 for the superchargeed and the petrol is 8.2 and 8.9
