Sorry, I couldn't resist that. I really have not raced many cars in my A4. One WRX since I upgraded the turbo, and I beat him. Never been out to the track in my car either. You?

I raced a kid in an M3 on some shity twisty deserted streets
Every time we hit a strait patch he would take off but in the turns I was right on his ***, I decided to back off when he started fish tailin tryin to loose me in the corner
he was just a suckass driver in a fast car though I wanna find some tracks somewhere

All of my races are between my GF and me. I chase her, she let's me catch her. Oh well.
================================================== ========

Racing is illegal...
I had fun with a Mustang GT and 540i on Sunday, and a 645i yesterday. Of course we never went over the speed limit.

Of course the most fun I had was with a red ZO6 on Friday at the shore. This guy was funny. He was around 50yrs old and had matching red OP sunglasses. His radio was playing some sort of club/dance music - it was way out of character for a guy his age. He kept over-revving his engine at stop lights. (Can you say mid-life crisis?) [sm=smiley8.gif]

The traffic was too thick for him to do anything except jump from one lane to another occasionally. It was very easy to stay with him and I could tell he wanted to show off to me.... so... eventually he had a chance. The traffic opened up and he took off - exhaust blaring. I down shifted and punched it. I hung behind him down the length of the boulevard - about three cars lengths behind during the whole blast. It was obvious he wanted to pull away, but it wasn't happening. [sm=smiley36.gif]

I pulled up next to him at the next light and looked over - he smiled and I said (sarcastically), "Were you trying to get away from me?" My GF then said, "You just got owned by a four door family sedan - and it costs 20K less than yours, too!!!" (I love my GF!) We laughed and drove off - ahead of him - the traffic owned him from that point on.

i was in the same boat w/ a 5.0 yesterday.

it was an older foxbody style mustang, and it sounded real good and all, but had no go?

he opened up in front of me, trying to put some pavement between me and him, but i hung with him somehow...

i have no idea how a 4 cyl (turbo or not) kept up w/ a 5.0L v8 mustang.
