Wahhoooo
I'm still shaking from this kill fellas....
Let me set the stage -
It's Friday afternoon, I'm on my way home from work minding my own business... I pull up to this light in the left hand lane and low and behold - there's a WS6 sitting right next to me. I'm looking over at him just to see what he's up too... but nothing. He wouldn't look back. At this point, I figure he's minding his own business as well. So, here I am - jamming to some Rage Against the Machine (Know Your Enemy) watching the light at the opposite side of the intersection to try and time my light and I notice that when the light was turning yellow, he let's of his breaks and started to roll forward as he reved his engine. So I went from to :uh oh: - he want's to go! Light turns green and he nails it. Instantly he put appx 1/2+ car length on me ('cause I wasn't ready...) so I matted it. I thought I was going to push the gas pedal through my floor...
It's about 35 degrees here so guess what happens next - wheel hop. I had to let off a little 'til my tires caught. Once my tires caught, it was over. I hit second gear at appx. 6,500 RMPS and immediately put 1+ car lengths on him. I ran second all the way to the rev limiter (I couldn't hear my engine since the music was so loud - looks like I need a shift light). At this point we're doing about 80 so I shut it down. He was appx. 2 car lengths behind me at this point. I think that he was still racing 'cause next thing I know he flies by me doing about 100. We get up to the next light and he rolls down his window and holds up the peace sign. I look over at him and give him a :thumbsup:
It was a good race. I know that at some point I'll have to give him another shot at the '03 since he lives close by (I've seen him around before). Next time - I'll be ready and hopefully win by more than just ~1 or 2 car lenghts.
God I love my 03... :beer:
Peace,
