So I was driving through Mexico this weekend on a nice leisurely cruise when I see a Termi merging on the highway. Now I'm passing by at around 80 in the left lane and he's just on the ramp so by the time he merges into traffic he's probably a good 1/4-1/2 mile behind me. I pull over into the right hand lane and slow it down for a bit and sure enough I see him creeping up on the left. He get's next to me and I see a Boost gauge on his dash about the size of a small wall clock and there are a few racing stickers on the car so I'm pretty sure it's modded.
Anyway, he gets along side me, smiles and gives me a thumbs up. We're doing about 65 at this point and I have a car in front of me so I merge behind him and he hammers it. I hear the beautiful wine of his supercharger and the hum of exhaust and I hammer it as well. He's got about 2 cars on me by the time I hit the gas but I catch him at about 110 and start to pass at about 120. I shut it down do to some traffic ahead and we chase back and forth a bit as we wait for an opening. Things clear out and we've got a nice stretch of open road in front of us with all lanes clear. I take the right lane and he has the left, we're doing 60 and we give one another a nod and hammer it. From 60-100 it's a close race but as we continue to speed up I'm pulling away. I shut it down at a little over 140 with about 2+ cars on him. We both smiled and had a good time and he got off at the next exit.
That was the first run of the year for me and it felt good
I have no idea what mods he may have had but I should be pushing about 620-640 to the wheels based on my current setup (getting it Dynoed again later this spring as I've added a new TB and high flow elbow to the TVS).
