Default Raced a Bentley GT

I raced a brand new Bentley Continental GT with paper tags this morning. We got on the highway at the same time, I was behind him. He was driving fast, so I figured he would be game. We finally got an opening and went from around 90mph to 130mph and I was about a car ahead before we hit traffic. The guy even waved after I beat him. For that heavy of a car it was pretty fast. (Twin-turbo V12 @550 hp & 475 tq and 5300lbs)

Good, rare race. I'm surprised that someone with the bazillion dollars necessary to buy a car like that would race. I'll bet you've got him thinking about how to make his car faster now. Either that or thinking about trading it for an Enzo.
