I was on my way to the store last night and I see this dark grey Mercury Cougar (newer model) pull out onto the street and start to haul ass to catch me. So, I slow down cuz I know he wants to race. Instead of just trying to even up, he blows by me doing about 80. So I punch and catch up with him. By this time we are doing about 95.
I let off a little so as not to pass him yet. He looked over at me and I waved "Bye", floored it and proceeded to quickly pull about 6 cars on him. Looked down and was doing about 125.
At the next light he pulls up next to me, rolls down his window and says, "Is that the supercharged version?" I said, "Yeah". "That thing pulls fucking hard." he said.
"If I had my nitrous hooked up I would have taken you though." was his next comment. I asked him if his car was stock and he shook his head "no". Before I could ask what he had done, the light changed and there were people waiting behind us. We exchanged a thumbs up and drove off.
It was cool to have somebody actually know something about our cars for once. Add another believer to the list.
