Im driving back from Starbucks after picking up my morning scone and cap, when I saw a white Evo MR, with temp tags even from a couple of weeks ago.

Mind you he is driving with his wife/gf in the car with him too.

We were going the same way and I didn't think much of it. I put my radar detector up as I always do when pulling onto Rt. 3 North. I guess he thought that was a treat or a challenge, so he dropped it. You could see the puff of overburned fuel as he gunned it so I figured I would play a bit.

I passed him after a few seconds, but just as I started to get some real gain on him, my radar detector flashed Ka.... I immediately slowed down and he passed me... and when flying by two NH State Troopers. When I started slowing down I was about 100-105 or so...

He lost. Twice!

Awesome Kill. I'm sure off the line would have been a different story. Oh well, that's his problem not yours. Good kill

Funny thing about AWD cars. Most people can't drive them right and blow the tires off at launch. The only EVO I ran from a dig did that and I jumped him by three off the line. Just cause it's AWD don't mean sh!t. It all about the driver.
