Default Just raced a Lexus SC430 (HAHAHAHA!!!)

I saw a Lexus SC430 coming up behind me a minute ago very quickly, so of course I punched it. He let off at about 95mph (speed limit 45mph). At first I was proud he never caught up to me, but then the light in front of us turned red. Believe it or not we were nose to nose till about 25mph (manual vs. automatic I assume), but then he left me lol. Oh well I paid a whole lot less than he did and he still has IMO the ugliest sport coupe available. Anyway, just thought I'd share.

I used to race in traffic like that, now ive found its so stupid and pointless to do,(especially double the speed limit). Its not worth the risk of wrecking and killing someone over. Im prolly not near as old as you, so save the," Quit talkin to me like a mommy thing", ive done way more racing then you have(125mph in 45mph), its normal, we all do it.

yea I once punched it with a Sc430 from about a 20mph roll ..
I am auto with APR 93 octane ..
He could hardly keep up. I was suprized. When we pulled up to the light afterwards (I was turning left) he rolled down his window and asked me if I was bi-turbo.
I laughed , and said no .. all he could say was "thats cool"

I find it hard to believe he was getting on it Dave666. After 25mph he left me in the dust!!! The only reason I kept up till then was because I got a good launch and he wasn't even using his brakes to launch his auto. If so though that's great! You're APR chip must be doing a lot more than mine.

It was an SC400
Not 430 .. if that means anything.
He also had a passenger , and I was alone.

95mph in a 45mph zone on city streets. Brilliant.
