I Need More Mods!
I just got out of a race with an Austin Martin something.
I was at a stop light and this guy comes up next to me with this totally awesome Austin Martin. I look at my brother and tell him this is one SWEET car. Well the light turns green and I go normal and he takes off. So, of course, I am like sweet...lets go! I nail it with him about 1 car length ahead of me, and he stops pulling on me REAL fast. I then shift to second and I start slowly gaining ground back on him. We ended up with him about 1/2 carlengths ahead of me. We backed off at 70 and we both gave each other the thumbs up.
Real nice car and sounded incredible! I have no idea what kind of Austin Martin it was. It looked real new and said what I thought looked like v90 on the back, but I can't find seem to find it. Looking at the Austin Martin website it looks almost identical to the DB9?
Maybe someone can help me identify what it was.

The Astons certainly are BEAUTIFUL cars. The DB9 runs high 12's @ 110-112 and the Vanquish runs about the same. The V8 Vantage runs low 13's @ 106ish. Sounds about right that you kept up with your mods. You might even continue to pull a bit if the race had kept going.
