Talking S2000 get's eaten by a CrewCab Truck (w/ vids)

I was heading back from San Diego and a nicely lowered S2000 was weaving in and out of traffic and I figured once he catches up to me I'll see if he wants to play...and luckily he was game to play. Well that is until after the first couple races and he figured out I wasn't an easy kill!! After then he tried to jump me everytime...awww It just meant I had to real him in is all!!

So since I'm having trouble with photobucket lately I just shot this vid to show what it looked like, pretty sweet little car really!

This was probably the 3rd and last race and I started the camera late but I didn't go WOT till about the third second in the vid, before that was 1/2 throttle...you can hear the turbo start to spool in anticipation for WOT...
At least it gave him a second to think he had a chance to get me!
And yes that little dot in the side view mirror is him, I think he let off a little after I did because he did close the distance pretty fast once I let off and he just stayed on my bumper for a while.

After that he didn't wanna play anymore, I guess he got tired of getting beat so I just put him behind me where he belongs, this was 3/4 throttle.

Anyways, that's my story and I'm stickin to it!!
Nice little cars though!

Nice kills. I definitely wouldn't expect that from a truck, even if I heard a turbo.

Thanks guys!! It's alot of fun doing this in a truck! Not as easy to handle going fast around turns but as long as it's relatively straight I'm good to go!
Once I tackle my suspension I'll be better off I think.
It's not much of a sleeper if you know what to look for, 305 tires, blacked out from head to toe and a dumped exhaust that set off car alarms! I got pulled over just yesterday for my exhaust but luckily I closed up the cut-out before he could turn around and pace me so he pulled me over for windows and front license plate...got off lucky!!
