Yea same.
Launched my very slightly modified automatic turbo supra just today actually. Beutiful LSD slip/sliding start left tracks for about 4 meters, then she took off. About 2.5k rpm to launch like that. The LSD screetching bit was freakin' awesome but when it gripped the road and drove it felt dang fast but just a very little bit lacking. Makes loads of power above 3k and more than makes up for the first half of first gear ... but until its gets to the power band its a bit sleepy. That hurt to say.

So I bought this old Honda bike, an NSR250. Bit of a street racer, I guess. I'm told they're fast.
Delivering it home with a friend driving the Supra for the first time. I drop gears and make a scream from the twin pipes flowing down this pony's flanks and it takes off like it's tail's on fire.
I look back when the Honda gets to its tap-out and the Supra's only two lengths behind. No one I've let ride my bike has told me its slow, they've all loved the thing. That car is a good thing indeed.
