My first real race!
I got off work late tonight, and I wasn't exactly happy about getting hassled all day while working 11 hours. So I take off to go home and manage to be first at the light. Just to blow off some steam I spin 'em into the intersection and run up about halfway through second.
I'm not thinking anything of the fact that when I changed lanes the Lincoln LS moves back next to me at the next light.
It goes green and this guy hits it hard. I'm rolling so I get into the clutch, up the revs, and dump. I'm even with him on the 1-2, and he keeps going! I feel the posi kick as I hit 2nd hard, and put about a car on him until I see this car hit third. Figure he's done, so I shift a little early, but he wasn't.
Had about a car and half when I shut down at 90 on a city street. He kept going and I saw the LS v-8 badge. Figured as much, but it was pretty darn fun.
Not too bad considering he's got maybe 35 ponies more, but I don't know how much heavier.
