...they still have dealer plates and have snotty drivers...
I was cruisin' along and I heard this guys exhaust up ahead. He was buzzing people and showing off. I was gonna leave him alone figuring he'd be long gone before I got through about 3 rows of traffic....I could see his flashy after market exhaust pipes beckoning me....no....mocking me.... up ahead through the traffic.
He was picking on some RX8...what a tuff guy...
Then....a sign from above... the traffic parted like the Red Sea in front of me...
So I accelerated and gave chase.
There he was....slowing for a left turn ahead...I got there just in time to get through the light behind him. I was several lengths back but gave the throttle a blast for a few seconds to see if he noticed my head lights rise and fall.
He did...
He slowed a little, and as I got closer, he let on and off his throttle to sound off.
Sounded real nice...I'm thinkin, "This thing has some mods other than the exhaust..." and I finally caught him.
Now I just cruised along side at about 50mph while I waited for a red light to line us up.
He didn't want to wait and he down shifts...as soon as I heard those RPM rise I nailed it, but he already had me by a fender. We evened out and I slowly started to creep by him and took the lead, but it wasn't gonna be long before his top end took over, so I let off as soon as I was up a fender.
Win #1:biggrin:....roll race was to his advantage...still beat him, but now I was convinced... this M5 had more than an exhaust kit.
About a 1/2 mile later we were lined up at a red...nice open straight stretch ahead. He wouldn't even look over, but I could see him mouthing off to his passenger...probably running down a list of excuses.
Green light I rolled onto it quickly and then pressed the floor. Even with my tires spinning, I got out on him a length and then when I gripped, I put about 3-4 lengths on him. Again...that M5 sounded sweet. Through the mid range he stayed about that far back and then I slowly started to put a little more on him.
Win #2.:biggrin:
Next light, he's gunning at me like he wants another shot. He's still rambling away through a list of excuses at his passenger and he is clearly pissed
at his tuner.....or maybe he was the tuner...
I checked my temps....178...all vitals are good...
OK biff....one more for the road.
Green light...nearly identical outcome as win #2.
Win #3:biggrin:
He turned right and made a quick run to wherever he dropped all that money on the M5.
It sure did sound good tho':biggrin:so if that's what he paid for...at least he got that much.:biggrin:
I continued on to the Pet store.:biggrin:
