smoked by a Phantom

well not really
i was on my was home on the NJ Turnpike when we hit a bunch of traffic. so i'm not paying attention, playing with the radio and i look left and there is a black Rolls Royce Phantom-it was HUGE. we ride next to each other for about a 1/4 mile, traffic breaks, he finds an opening and was out. i was behind him for a second following his lead through the break in the traffic, guess he thought i wanted to race or maybe wanted to show me and everyone around us what $300,000 gets you. Well 2 miles or so up the road he was in the shoulder with a State trooper behind him.

Sweet ass car I wouldnt have expect to be that nimble given the size

6.7L V12 and 0-60 in less than 6, not suprising.

I'm sure once rolling, those beasts really unleash.

Wow..I didn't think they moved like that. I just assumed it was a big expensive car that ate too much gas.

I knew they put down some power, but i'm in the same boat as you, never would have believed it if i didn't witness it

warning, he probably walked away with a few PBA cards and the trooper got a "hook up" from some place. they arent stupid, they see a car like that and it's "money" in their pocketc

njprettyboy, where on 287, what area you from?
