a new Ferrari F430. Before you comment, I know this car can KILL mine.

So, I was driving to a friend of mines house when I see some bright HID's coming up pretty fast behind me. I did not think anything of it. It finally gets next to me and I see that it is a new yellow Ferrari F430. I had my widows up so he could not see me but I saw him looking at my car. I wanted to hear it so I rolled my window down. I guess he thought I wanted to race. So long story short, we did. I hear him drop second and give a little rev, I knew I was gonna get killed but hey. We go from second, through second he already pulled a car on me and that is when I hear it, WHAAAMMMM..... the sound of a FERRARI missing 3rd gear. It was great. I flew by him and then slowed down to see if he wanted to go again but him nor his wife would even look at me. I thought it was awesome. Sorry for the long story. Peace.

what mods do you have, 13.5 is good time

that's great- you know he felt like a jacka$$!
good kill

Can't say I've never missed third. Poor guy. :devillook

Wait...

How do you miss 3rd with a sequential shifter, a la SMG?? 6spd models, for the "purists", won't come out till 2006...

EDIT: Nevermind. That was a last year mag I was remembering, talking about how the manual will be an option this year.

Those gated shifters need some getting used to.

Haha awesome story man. Love your car btw.

Thanks a lot.

haha, i did a similar thing, but not while racing. I was comin home from an early work shift on Saturday, and a GA Perimeter College bus was infront of me going wayy slow. So the road opens up and i get another lane to pass them on, so i slowly creep up beside them, lookin at each person as i slowly pass, and there is a car in the lane i'm in about 50-60 feet infront of me, so i can't pass yet.

My eye catches a gorgeous blonde girl on the bus, and my jaw drops for a few seconds. I look back at the road and the car that was 50-60 feet had turned off, so it was hammer time. So i dropped to 2nd, red-lined, and BAM, missed 3rd.

That loud ratch-ed-y sound embarrassed me soo much. I've only done that twice in my life, and one was infront of a smokin hot blonde. :banghead:

O well, Hijack over.

i think my ex girlfriend could have missed 3rd in an automatic she was such a bad driver
