Default First Kill in the T/A

Mercedes 350 Sport got owned. I was at a red light and this started reving his engine. Wanted to show off for his girl. Hottie by the way... cute blonde.

Green light goes... let him jump. I ran thru first and 2nd. Put about 5 cars on him.

I guess I shocked him. We go into a more secluded street. He puts down his window and asked "how much hp do you have on that"?

350hp I say... I avidly believe out LS1s are underrated. So we go off a 10mph roll. 3 honks. Ran thru 4000rpm on 3rd. Put like 10 Buses on this kid.

I slowed down and waited for him... he said. That thing is fast. His girlfriend gave this look of...

I said... "have a good nite and be safe".

He said... "you too."

Fun kill... too easy. I love my car... oh yeah by the way... I was stylin' with the T-tops removed!!!! lol...

Thanks for the advice... it's pretty crazy. I finally have a car I enjoy looking in the driveway when I get up. Hopefully this will just be the beginning and I'll be able to get other cars like that...
