Just when you thing your car is fast

I got picked up in a C32 a couple hours ago and was propelled to 137mph in the rain and with 4 ppl in the car in the same distance it takes me to pull to 120... One word....WOW!!

That's pretty cool and the speed in the rain is wicked! I probably would have been thrilled to be in the car too.

But, still if anything went wrong the rain will make it worse ( driving instructor or not ). After it was all done, I'd probably say to myself, " WTF was I thinking?!?"
