LOL @ the speedboat thing.
I once setup a 400hp V8 LPG Speed boat on a private stretch of river near Kings Lynn and totally crapped myself at the immense speed of the thing, as you say wave hopping on full throttle is NOT good for your back at all LOL
He was good enough to invite me down for a day of water skiing though which I will eventually take him up on, not sure if he uses that boat or another but either way I need to brace my arms to my body before I have a go at that

3 spring to mind, ford gt 40, 355 ferarri, and believe it or not a nova 2 litre 16v on throttle boddies - it felt like the engine was going to pull the front of the car off!

PF's Guitar God!!!
The guy who lent us the Bentley for my brothers weadding took me out in his Ferrari Enzo which i thought was stupidly fast. His mate Antony too me out in his Veyron and no word of a lie, i screamed stop and threw up on the side walk. 125mph in 5 seconds and back to zero in 2-3 seconds
There is another thread like this, i posted the Enzo pictures up. Will dig them out again

Passenger- Stu Sharpin's MKII RS2000 YB, god i love that car!
[ I will never forget going down the back straight at Marham overtaking 2 lotus Carltons like they were stood still, complete with SCROTE number plates and us both waving to them as they looked at us in total shock.]

fastest car ive driven was my father in laws subaru legacy gtb e-tune estate twin turbo.that was rapid.it did 172mph and ran out of revs.really was a quick car.not many people believed it would do that speed.the engine had to be rebuilt twice in 6 months tho lol as he drove it so hard.
fastest ive been in is doug at mrc tunings audi s4. that is an animal 500 bhp 4x4 198mph and 0-60 in 3 seconds. ive never felt anything launch like that in my life

You drove my Sierra in a higher spec than those two on shorter gearing.
Thought that would have been faster.... less weight. more power. and far punchier on 3.9 gearing...
I'm lucky that I have driven lots of fast cars, Rocket Ronnies old R33 triple TOTB winner was fastest on paper I think.
Even though it was faster it felt nothing like as ANGRY as Stus westy though on the new big Turbo.
Genuine 10 sec 1/4 car... and its 30cm off the floor with no windscreen and doors. SCARY
I would LOVE to go out in Simon Norris green Evo....

I think Chips yellow cossie is still the fastest car Ive driven.
Passenger rides, nevermind on paper but ones which spring to mind:
James M5, Impressive car, AWESOME driver
Anthonys Merc - TC off, he was struggling to pull away cleanly on a slushbox
Phil2400's cossie on an airfield, How he keeps that car so clean and drives it the way he does is beyond me.
A customers F430, really nice car!!
Bruce taxis 400bhp evo round knockhill

Pat Doran's RS200 when in CAT livery.
60 in 2.4, 100 in 5.
Brakes were better than anything I've ever been in too, basically F1 but with steel discs... with the violent acceleration and equally violent braking I didn't know what was going on!

Fatest Car
My 360 Modena F1 is the fastest thing I have been in for a long time.
Been in an ultima with v8 twin turbo which will do over 200 mph .
My Subaru ( RB 320 ) is quick 160 mph just.

V cool. LEGENDARY car.
But can you imagine why I wanna go in Simon Norris EVO then Ben?
Its quite a bit FASTER than that 200...
Plus its a road legal car.... and not geared to just 130mph like Pats...
Its keeps on pulling to over 200mph.
Freaking insane.

Chip, it was - I love Rallycross and was so lucky to get my arse in a true fire breathing rallycross car before the Euro restrictions came in and neutered them all.
Was sat on the floor in the passenger side (no seat), clinging on to the cage! Pat drives like an animal too so all in all it was a very surreal but vivid experience, I'm certain it will be the most aggressively accelerating and decelerating car I'll ever go in, supercars included!
Lee - can totally understand that, I haven't seen it go in the flesh but the stats are ridiculous and I'd imagine it would be a similarly raw experience... incomprehensible!

Likewise, far more interesting to me than F1 etc TBH!
VERY jealous!
sounds nuts!
