I ran across a Jaguar SUV some time back. They have 550 HP. You can't underestimate anyone these days.
Dodge will probably come out with a Hellcat minivan. Imagine little squeakers pointing and laughing at your big turbo GTI as their Mom puts you in her mirror.

Snicker. Years ago, I was jack assing through a fun series of curves in my M Coupe and a dad came around in me an E63 Wagon with two kids in the rear facing seats. We both had a good laugh about that one. Gotta love wagons.

That is a cool Dad. I always loved wagons. Had a Magnum R/T, which could get out of it's own way but couldn't be called fast. The HEMI sounded good though.

Wagons are so unpopular in the states and it makes me sad. The RS6 Avant was a huge win this year. I wish GM made some sort of wagon. Those E63s are no joke lol

Would have been a cooler dad if his kids weren't in the car. It's absurd to risk your children.

Oh good grief. It's a car designed for the Autobahn. Romping it through some well designed but under posted streets at 2x the speed limit is hardly child endangerment.
They were in their seatbelts, in a comically safe car, probably with ESC still on, and wildly safer than anyone using their phone driving 10 under the limit. Do you double as a Prius forum moderator?

HaHa no. I just wouldn't do that with kids in the car.

Lmao, usually it’s the other people driving around you have to worry about.. But yeah, only two cars on the road this time, and every time.

I took on one of these SVR RR's on the highway sometime ago coming home from work. At the time I was running full weight and on my 2nd to final revision of a EQT XL Turbo tuned by Ed. We got neck to neck and i started gaining on him before we let off around 120+. He definitely did something to the car it had a really loud throaty exhaust, and it was pretty damn fast!

nice, I figure with a BT it would be something like that. If they have 550+ HP and we have say 420ish and 2k less weight it would be close.

Thank him after you get a bigger turbo and beat him. Reminds me of when I raced some kid in a MK7 GLI with a IS38 in it. It was straight up murder but he wanted to try so I obliged.
