So I am just hanging out at Hybridynamics, stopped down to pick up some parts and was just shooting the shit for a little. It was lunch time so we headed to Taco Bell to grab some lunch and then headed back to the shop. I thought I was just going to head home after the lunch break until I heard the magical words. Jay asks, do you want to go for a ride in the 240 Whitey. I felt like a kid on Christmas, and i said in my cool guy tone… Fuck yeah!
So he fires it up, the sickest sound I have heard to date. Jump in the car and throw on the harnesses. Now I am pissed for two reasons:
- I forgot my video camera and just had my still camera.
- Last time I was in this car it made me want to have a 240. Is this now going to make me want a high horsepower 240?
We pull onto the highway he rips it in 3rd gear, the car just pulls and pulls! We run into traffic and we cruise along. We hit a nice straight stretch with no traffic in 2nd gear. He jumps on it, ripping the tires loose and just throwing me back in my seat!
Definitely one of the coolest cars I have ever been in, and to think… its only on low boost right now!
Here are some vids that I took with my still Camera.
