Just having a little fun with you and trying to throw in a little perspective at the same time. Kudos to you for not getting bent out of shape about it. Congrats on your kill.
You're right, it does feel good. Never had the good fortune of running up against a Ferrari but I have surprised many with DSM's I've owned as well as other cars.
Straight line acceleration is the number one performance stat everyone focuses on. That was all I cared about until about 12 years ago when I found out how much fun it was hitting the brakes and turning corners. For those that have never participated in a high speed driving event, open track day, or driving school like they have at Brainerd, I highly suggest it. You don't have to have a fast car, just a safe one cause it's not about the car. Try it sometime. Everything you learn up there can be applied to the street and WILL make you a better driver.
Not that I condone this kind of activity but if guys are looking for a serious challenge, keep an eye out for a dark blue Porsche 911 with license plate "IT RIPS", a silver Porsche GT2, and an atomic orange Z06 with license plate "ATOMICZ". These guys take on all comers.
