In what?! What the fuck are you talking about? This thread is about Top Gear...!?

You mentioned the Aston Virage. I was just posting my observations on the subject.

See, I haven't seen the Top Gear episode you are talking about yet so I can't really comment on that.

Oh!... Great! Well done...? :confused:

Also. The Virage's top speed is 186mph, so your observation:



was wrong.

But you said you like the car. If you had one wouldn't you unleash the fury every once in a while? You know, maybe take it up to triple digit speeds just to see what it's like?

Defo, I'd take it round a track near me all the time. What fun. :wub:

What does this have to do with you saying the car only goes the speed limit when that's clearly not true.

What if you didn't have a track near you? You'd really only be able to go the speed limit in it...kind of pointless don't you think?

What if the world was green, what if the roads near you where vertical? It doesn't matter, there are tracks all over the country, I'd go to one of them. Also, with a car like that it's not the top speed that matters, it's how it gains speed.

So, you're not going to answer the question then. Got it.

You still haven't answered my question.

Here: Using just quotes I have constructed a question / answer post for you, without adding anything new, it shows your questions and my answers.

What if you didn't have a track near you?
I'd drive to another track.
You'd really only be able to go the speed limit in it...kind of pointless don't you think?
I don't think speed limits are pointless.

Your answer was a dodge. I'll rephrase it. What if the nearest track was in the United States and you'd have to ship your car there to explore its limits? What would you do then? Just drive the speed limit around dreary old England?

Answer that question please.

England is anything but dreary, and in terms of roads there are some fantastic roads to drive on in the UK, also, you are seriously asking me what I would do if the world was without all race tracks except those in America?

My answer is: I'd drive at the speed limit, and blow my fucking brains out because the world would be retarded

Bah, talking to you is like talking to a robot. Can we get a human being to replace the HAL9000 bot?
