Well that car was a mistake...

Took on a Porsche 911 Turbo S - oops he missed a shift took him off the line, however he made a run from behind me at the next light, went wot and he overcame me... well it was fun, but I am sure for more than twice the price he had to be concerned.

I've had my fun w/plenty of Porsche's over the years. I won. Each. Time.

The looks on their faces at the next light(s) were priceless.

Never wanted to look over. Never wanted to acknowledge their loss.

When the entire time I was ready to give them the thumbs up and be like cool race!

One even turned off right away at the next intersection. .

Win some. Lose some @kryptto

All in good fun my friend.

I think the most fun Ive had is getting a Tesla Plaid to run. I obviously had no chance but holy buckets is it cool to watch that thing just take off.

I love sleeper stories.... was fun to hear my wife laugh out when I blew his doors off, she didn't realize he missed his shift was funny to hear her laugh. Came home to see 1/4 mile 10.2 secs for that car. I didn't power brake at the light either, I didn't realize he was gonna make that power move. Wasn't sure how much power those German cars could crank.

I beat an S off the line at the track, by the 1/8 I think he had already crossed the finish line.

One of my friends was lined up at Milan Dragway with a Porsche - while he was in his Ford Flex EcoBoost with his kid car seats in the middle row. He had GoPro cameras showing the next lane.

Poor Porsche driver was beat by the Flex. He was really upset and back in the pits was on the phone with a tuner saying, "this thing runs like crap, a Ford Flex beat me. We have to do something". My friend stopped and pointed at the cameras and said, "oh, you know that this is going up on youtube".

I've had a hard time getting anyone to play, I've had a ram which was fun, let him catch up and then pull away like 3 times, and a wrx that missed 3rd and gave up ( I had a bus on him already). But it'd seem the "cop car" presence makes people less apt to run. Plus my collision warning light goes nuts some times and that spooks the majority of people

Haha well I fixed all that, remove your stock resonator and third cat and people know you aren't a cop. It sorta sux I did enjoy the is he a cop especially with the laptop logging in the passenger window. However the rims with purple lugs and exhaust now I am easily seen as another annoying driver.

I would love to have the cash for 20" stock black rims and good tires. Considered putting the stock resonator back in removing the Flowmaster FXs.
