2.slow Vs. 2.slow
On the way home from work I swung through Dundas (Town of) to see if the local Curbsider had any new bimmers. So I'm waiting at a light where right afterwards the speed limit jumps from 50 km/h to 80km/h and there's almost no one on the road. A guy in a late 90's wolfsburg jetta pulls up beside me and starts reving and inching forward. Thought it should be a good match as both cars have the same underpowered engine. Light goes green and I don't launch cause my old Golf probably can't take it, but I floor 1st to 5000 rpm and he's at my rear quarter, shif to 2nd .. buy the time I'm in 3rd he's almost a car length behind me, shift into 4th at 5000 and soon knock it off cause we're coming up on trafic at 130 km/h, and he's 2 car lengths back now. Guy flies by and won't even look at me, starts weaving in and out of traffic.
Must have been an auto or an old tired engine cause I wasn't trying that hard.
Was fun though.

At least you get to enjoy your race longer then mine. My races are usually over rather quickly.
