Question I raced my own car?

Not something that happens everyday. Me and the wife were leaving my parents house and I was in the stang and she was in my SHO. My wife NEVER races, so I was caught completely unaware when she goes flying around me. I gave her abut a 2 car length lead and then just laid into it. After the tires stoped spinning I caught her just as i shifted into 3rd and quickly pulled to about 5 cars. She said she almost had me. I said, "You almost you had me? You never had me, like you never had your car! Granny shifting, not double clutching" It was funny as hell.
