Win some, lose some.
I about got "suckered" by a 300 TT Z the other day. I pulled up next to him at a light. He didnt even look over or rev or anything. So I figured he didn't want to go. But, I hung it out in 1st up to about 3000 when heard him get on it. I probably would have lost if I had shifted into second. I ran it up to 7000rpm and shifted. We ran to about 65ish (in a 35) and he lost.

I agree with Rev. If it looks fast, dont take any chances. Go fast from the line, you can always slow down

Next time you come up upon a Mercedes 500SL or S get them off of the line. The AMG CLK55's are perfect sleepers. 0-60 in less than 5 secs. Watch out for then The V-12's are the fastest on the roll (40-120's).
