Default Two more bite the dust!!!!!!!!

Here is a little easter sunday story. Well I picked up my girlfriend and headed to north miami beach on easter sunday to vistit my folks. I95 Seemed to turn into a playground for me. Streets were pretty empty and on my way north I see a fast moving toyota supra. Those little six bangers could move I was very impressed.

He came up fast behind me I didnt think much till I saw his tail pipe and saw a huge 5" or 6" exhaust pipe. He started teasng me and my girlfriend was already starting to buckle up. So I drop it into second and we both slow down to a steady 40 mph then he nails it and he gets a small jump on me about half a car. His car sounded pretty coll I actually could her those turbos spooliong up and in between his shift I could here is blow off valve releasing air.

Well by the end of second we were door to door and I was slowly pulling away in third. My car just kept pulling away farther and faster as my RPM's reached redline. By mid 4th gear he was chilling in the rearview. It really wasnt that close of a race but I have found a little more respect for supras. He didt take to kindlt to the beating. I slowed down to find out what he had and he didnt want to pull along side of me kept slowing down behind me and he took the next off ramp exit. SORE LOOSER!!!

Then on my way back home a silver Ferrari Morenello 560 pulls up along side. Iam cruising back home he come up quick behind me pulls along side downshifts and we slow down to about 30 to let the traffic go to give us some more room to play. Once we get enough room he takes off, I was slow on the jump because my SMC controller fell from the underneath my dash and got tangled on my left legkicked it to the side and nailed the gas. I was about a half car behind him. I was actually kind off worried because it was a Ferrari and I had never raced one b4. I was also distracted by the hot blonde the guy had in his car. Well by the end of second I was riding his bumper. Once I hit third I just wizzed past him. I have never seen anything like that. By the end of third I was a car length infront. I thought he had let off??? So he comes up next to me and rolls down the window. He screams out NICE CAR, BLAH, BLAH.; He asks me if I had NOS and I told him it was a blower. He asked me to run again. I agreed. We had already cleared some traffic since we had been chatting for a godd minute at about 35-40. So I roll up the window we downshift and we off again. Same thing happend I hit third and I jump about 3 cars in front this time. This time he was on my right side my girlfriend said he saw the poor guys jaw hit the stearring wheel as I kept pulling away.

The supra was actually more competition than the ferrari but spanking the ferrari felt better. Their nothing better than showing up a rich old man in a 160,000 dollar car with his model blonde girlfriend sitting next to him. He was actually a cool sport but he will think twice next time he pulls upto another vette. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />


Happy Easter Everone.
