Cool Put the smack down on a new black coupe viper

Yeterday I ran into a cobra on I-95, and from a roll beat him up. The guy was very cool. He came up and we chatted a little. He was shocked how easy the 65 handled him. I must confess that I have total respect for the Cobras, because they are fast as he'll.
However today I ran into my first viper. Black and beautiful. I was at a red light and he flew by on the outside lane. My wife initially wanted me to go home, but just seeing that this gorgeous black viper did not properly bow to the AMG badge made me and her a little upset. Therefore I sat out to put the world back in order.
The viper was stopped at the next red light and I was able to catch up. Side by side we awaited the green. As soon as the light changed we both jumped on it a little, until the testosterone took charge. I heard this thunderous sound from the V10 calling all of his horses, therefore it was time for me to beckon my horses along with their two identical twin brothers turbo 1 and terbo 2.
I jumped him from the start and pulled on him like there was no tomorrow. We did about a 1/4 mile and I let off because of traffic. He was about 4 car lengths behind smelling some serious MB carbon monoxide. As we got to the next light he wouldn't even let his window down and thank the AMG Gods for giving him a PH. D in *** whoopings. As my wife and I are celebrating the victory, guess who pulls in between both of us. "A palm Beach County Sheriff Deputy." I almost threw up on an empty stomach. Either this guy did not see us or he enjoyed the entertainment. Either way I am thankful that I didn't get smacked down by the almighty hand of the law.

Oh man, what a kill. Freaking awesome man. Great write up and beautiful kill.

The other day I had a guy with the Audi R4 (The hottest audi sedan) tell me to stand down. "That my little C wouldn't take him" I was going to reply, but he took off. What an ***.

It looked like an 02 or 03. The newer cobras are faster than the one I ran that day. However, I have run the old and the new. I dont know about the mods, but it wasn't stock or it would have completely dissappeared.

As you should know with owning a street legal race car such as your GT2, a kill is a kill.

Well, you said "fair". If the Viper gets to add twins, then the AMG should get some some funny gas.

Your GT2 looks great. You should post a higher res pic of it if possible. It looks gorgeous in your sig. See ya.
