Default First Race!!!

Hey all!!

tonight i finally had my first race in the trans since i bought it in november......anyways, i was cruising down I-95 doing about 70 mph, i just got out of the tunnel passing by downtown baltimore when i see this gt stang swerving in back and forth trying to get up to me. when he finally did we were out of the tunnel with nothing but a nice long stretch in front of us. we went from about a 70 mph roll...i started out ahead by a fender or so, then he pulled ahead by a fender....then it was all over, i pulled him right back in and at about 110 he was a good 10 cars back, i shut it down there. all in all, i would say it was some good fun, and i'm glad my first race ended with a kill!!
