This actually just happened about an hour ago. I was on my way home down the interstate and this little focus with a paint job and exhuast passes me pretty quickly then has to slow down for a car. So I take this wonderful opportunity to get behind him and what for the car in the left lane to move. This focus had boost and oil temp. gauges so im assuming it was charged. The car moves but he doesn't drop it so I make the first move and kick it down into 3rd at 80mph and turn into the right lane. As I did so I heard his exhuast scream but soon was head to head with him. I shifted into fourth at about 98 and stared to pull hard on him. I put that shitty ford about 3 car lenghts behind me by the time I hit 120. Why do they even bother? My 325i has intake and a turner perfomance chip. Im flying out saturday to get my new car, 01 330ci supercharged. Hope I see him again soon!! Haha. :D

A boost gauge on a ricer (even though a ford still ricer) doesn’t necessarily mean a turbo, just eye bling ;)

lol yeah, most ricers put the 3 gauges down their a pillar, and it has oil temp, water temp, and air pressure or crap like that, because they aren't running any boost and want to be like 2F2F. Also big exhaust cans may be a sign of when somebody is running a turbo but it is also a good sign the guy was just a ricer. if you didn't hear a S/C whine or a blow off chances are you just raced and spanked pure rice.
But good job none the less. :thumbup:

Nice kill. Im sure he was just trying to have fun. He might have expected a loss but that doesnt mean he shouldnt be able to have a little fun. Find one thats actually boosted and I wonder what the resluts would be.
btw watch your language in the main forums :nono
