Have posted a kill in a while. Heres a few from the past few days.
Well, I live very close to the boarder of New Hampshire. I frequently drive up to Salem where all the malls and shops are (no sales tax up there).
I head up to a stateline discount store. On my way back I turn onto the four lane road and a pretty loud Mx-6 blows by. I leave it in third and catch up, riding next to him and match his speed, ever slowly increasing as I can hear his motor straining. We get to a stop light. Now there are three lanes on our side of the road. The mx-6 is next to me, with a blacked out ford SHO next to him. The SHO is LOUD. I can hear his V8. The mx-6 is rocking out to some ear soothing rap. The light turns and I make a reasonable launch. Pulling about 5+ car lenghts on the mx-6 by the time I get to 70. The SHO drifted back and didn't seem to be racing after he strung out first gear. The mx-6 beat him off the line regardless. We get onto the on ramp for a highway, but the mx-6 backed off and wouldn't bite again for a highway run :(
Today, I went back up to Salem to go get my iPod fixed. I look in my mirror and see 4dr e36 weaving through traffic. M3/4?? Nope :( But, still a very nice 328. He pulls ahead and I see two kids smiling and they look at me. I leave it in 5th and catch up, letting off as I see my exit, which is a massive four lane, one way. He starts to pull as we a have a quarter mile to the exit and I floor it. Catching and passing him. We get into the corner, which I have encountered many a time. I downshift to fourth, decide nay on the heal toe. Which was an error on my part and the rear end brakes out at 85 mph. I have some room to counter, with about 3 lanes to my left in a right hand turn to save it before a concrete wall. I found myself in a four wheel power slide, save it and go on my way as the kid is still trying to catch up to me. Drop to third and left him. Five minutes later I see him pulling into the parking space next to me at the mall.
We get out and talk. He tells me nice run and he almost shit his own pants seeing me get a little tail happy. The kid was the man and wasn't a tool at all like most people are when they lose. He asked if I had a turbo, I told him I wish I did and showed him what I had and that I do some BMW CCA stuff at NH international speedway on their road course. He told me he was planning on getting wheels and maybe a different exhaust.
