Default I pussed out from a race :(

Was on the highway and I see this Mercedes tailing me. He is mirroring everything I do and just getting on my nerves. All of the suddenly he blowes by me around 30 miles faster, from like 8 cars back. Shocked the **** out of me. It looked like a 500 SL with some fatty tires and a center exhaust with a body kit. I speed up and see the V12 on the side and 600SL on the back, no plate, old fart driving. Car looks modded and I know it had 2 turbos to boot. He tore away again and I just sat there. I know I would have been creamed, but I always try.

You never know unless you try...

Should have ran him anyway. Not every day you get to run a V12.

Why did you puss out? I could understand if your woman was in the car or something, and you didn't wanna get beat in front of her .... but it was just you and the old guy.

I love racing cars that I think are faster than I am ... then I can see how I do. Way more fun then racing a car which you know is going to get roasted by you.

Way to admit the pussssss.

I won't ever puss out of a race. I do it for the rush. Win lose or draw. Bring it!

Did it look like this?

Base Engine Type: V12
Horsepower: 493 hp
Max Horsepower: 5000 rpm
Torque: 590 ft-lbs.

The only bad thing about it is it weighs over 4000 pounds.

Hell yeah!

I'll race anything that wants some. Even if I know I am going to get drug hardcore. It's fun to win, but every once in awhile losing can be a lot of fun too.

That looks exactly like the car i ran breifly on the highway coming through Louisiana. I had no trouble pulling him in from a 90mph roll . I slowed for traffic and that dude just ripped around everyone on the right side of the road. I just let him go after that. Glad to see that picture as i could not tell what that thing was-Driving too fast to check. It was Silver and the badges were chrome. It did say V12 on the front fenders though(I saw that , no problem). Having a street racing relapse(Trying to give up street racing and run only on the track-Much harder than it seems!!)
Should have given him a run,never know when that chance will come again.

It looks to me, like your decision making was more mature than the old fart driving the 600 series Mercedes. You never know, your number might have come up. You could have eatin' sh*t by having a nasty accident; seriously hurt yourself or someone else.Meanwhile, the old guy is off into the sunset and your the one that's having a sh*t sandwhich in the hospital, morgue or jail cell. Hatsoff to you on that one. If I were in the same state as you, I'd thank you for saving my life.

Always puss out if the guy blowing by you is a cop. Otherwise, everyone is fair game.

I just have to state that this was the worst attempt to stir up an arguement ever. not only was it gay, but it also had almost no relevance in a thread like this on. please go back to your cave, and PLEASE UNIT, ban this useless bastard/it/he/she thing!
