Board was down, so went out and racked up a few kills.

Hope 300 miles is enough clutch break-in. :sario:

Leaving work Friday: There is a light and a two lane on-ramp onto the XXXX, I end up in the left lane, 1st at the light and notice a C5 Vert rolling up behind me… throwin revs. :mamoru: Older guy, I’ve seen it around my business park before so don’t think anything of it, as I’m just trying to get home on a Friday.  
Green arrow, roll through the turn and next thing I know he stands on it and jumps out to my right to pass, I’m in second and bury it. His head snaps around when i start spooling 20#s (Holsets are loud), I catch him in second, slam third and pull by him, by the time I wind out fourth he is a few cars behind me and forced to merge. About a half mile later at ~70mph he passes me and just gives me the thug nod. I give him the 😉 Thanks for first real pull of the season.

Saturday night after the Bisons game we’re making our way home on the XXXX, cruising along and an annoyingly yellow 02-03 Mustang blows by me about 90, then slows and paces down next to me. It sounds like just an exhaust or so but he wants to go. From about 50 I beep (once) and he takes off. I’m a little slow to spool out of 3rd but I manage to catch him. And pass him. :mamoru: I didn’t even bother staying in it as the XXXX isn’t exactly a great place to run, I drop back to 50mph and dude never passes me. :shrug:

Monday night, back on the XXXX the Yellow SRT4 kid catchs up to me. He’s either on here, or knows someone who is as he rolls the window down and calls for a 40 roll on the 3rd beep. Give em the :tup: Drop to second and brake boost a bit. Three beeps and he jumps a half car on me through second, third puts me a couple cars ahead, and fourth puts me far enough out that I shut it down. This kid is the only guy so far that gives me a 🙂 & a :tup: after a pull so far this year.

Yessir.

I used to be on your route (assuming you’re still doing what you were doing a couple years ago), so I’m sure you’ve seen it.

You don’t need power steering for a track day. At speed I’m sure it’s not that hard to turn.

If you took the time you spent on here and devoted it to working out you could probably muscle that Rustang around Dunnville without power steering. 😛

3 in 4 days? meh.  
Nobody starts anything with my car =[ they just wave or thumbs up.

Except for some girl in a Fusion that tried at a 3-\>2 merger the other day… But I think she was just a typical need to speed up at redline female driver ;\
