73' Porsche RS goes Down Down Down
This is the exact same Porsche as the one in the movie ____ with Brad Pitt and someone else. I totally do not remember the movie now, but I did at the time.
Anyways, dark green 73' Porsche 2 door and I notice him on the 73' North last night on my way home from La Jolla. I speed up to him and stay right at pace with him. I look over at him, and he just looks right on.
After a while, he finally goes ahead and I can hear him flooring that old thang. I lightly hit the gas on the clk, touch shift into fourth, and get all the way up to 100 and fly right by him.
I slow down and downshift to third and wait for him to catch up. he finally speeds right by me, but no way!!! I get into fourth again, get up to him, put it into D, and hit 120 while waveing to him from my sunroof. Turned the lights off and went into Ghost Mode.

As for beating a '73 RS - might as well said you beat a corolla. Not exactly ... fair.

By turn of the lights, I mean like flashing the hazards. You turn them on and off, and then for two seconds, you leave them off so he has no idea where you are cuz I was way up a head.
It is how you end a race. Otherwise, the guy will just come swooping right by you thinking he won the race.
BTW- What do you mean Carolla? The RS was a fast porsche in '73 and still is. They removed half of the car to make it go faster, and by doing that, it had a qm or 14.2 @ 98 on a bad day, and 13.9 on a good day!
