Default My ride in the Enzo (as a passenger)

Most of you already saw it when I first posted it of course but we need to celebrate this new section so let's post it again

My ride in the Enzo, some month ago in Germany, 6 MB.
Near the end there is also a little bit of 360 Spider onboard and a Testarossa taking off

All the pics and my report from that magic day: http://www.motorworld.net/forum/show...=146466#146466

HEHE, maybe in the video but I can assure you the way the Enzo piled up speed to 200-220 is not even barely comparable to the 360 or the Diablo... not another planet... another universe!

Pretty steady hands considering the g forces involved. Where was the 360 spider in the vid?

Well there are two parts in the Enzo, the start of the ride and then the one when going uphill for a while.. then the action shift to the Modena, when I also film for a while the fields to the right of the road , again in the uphill section

The Enzo is nothing compared to a Mclaren LM, well "nothing" is overated but it sure is faster than an Enzo. When i had a ride in a an Enzo you don't really feel like your going fast, its amazing. TT you feel the same way?

Sweet vid! Pity theres none of the 360 climbing up the rev range. I think it sounds better than the enzo tho. Which do you prefer TT?

No idea in wich Enzo you had a ride, or what kind of road it was, but as you can read in my report, I was completely BLOW AWAY! it was incredible fast, mesmerizing! Something you can't understand untill you try it on your skin! I risked to vomit all the time and only another km and for sure I would have did it inside the car... I can assure you that reaching a corner at 220, braking superhard (almost vomit), take the corner at maybe 160 with very high lateral G and then again accelerate up to alomost 200 is INCREDIBLY fast and you feel every single km..
My body was throw in every direction like a big doll!

You sure you had a ride in the Enzo?

--

mindgam3, as for the sound, deinitely the Enzo with its double pitched soundtrack... very quite when not pushing and as you can see at the beggining, mad when he floored it
The Spider is very nice from the outside, but inside (we had the roof up) it was very quite even higher in the revs sadly

As for sound for that day, from iside the car it would be

Enzo
Diablo
360

Either you are strange, either the driver didn't floored it to reach 170.. and it was on a boring highway...
