Not a kill but a demonstration of power!

Last night I was driving on Fairmont parkway, at a light I'm listening to Beethoven's No.5 (classical music helps me stay off the gas), a guy on a 6 cyl dodge pick up truck takes off "fast" spinning tires, I start moving (tranny is on W mode), when he shifts into second he chirps tires again, I'm on his side just behind his door, I gas it a little to see this guy's face, it was two guys, they looked at me and smiled, I smile back at them and punch it, remember they are accelerating as fast as they can, I left them behind bad it looked like they were stopped, that was fun. At the light they arrive after ~10 seconds, rolled their windows down, I look at them and they said hi, "we are just having fun", I replied "we are all just having fun!", they asked me how fast the car would do 60 mph, i answered 5 seconds flat (yes I exagereted a little, but can you blame me? ), they were like WOW , when the light turns green they spin tires at the same time i punch it and leave them so far behind they couldn't get to the next light before it turned red.
I just thought that was pretty cool and wanted to share it with you fine people.

Next time I'll say less than 8 seconds to 60 mph. 5 is less than 8, right?

Nice job man......

I think what you did is very fun and I do it sometimes also! I can just imagine those guys faces after you punched it!

I was listening to dave mathews band just driving with traffic at about 65-70 in a 55 mph zone cruising along a week ago when I hear a terrible sounding exhaust note from a 96 Hona Accord come by at about 75 or 80. The guy slows down and him and his buddy look over at me and smile. I smile back they floor what is left in their 160 hp Honda, and I nail the throttle in my car passing them making it look like they were standing still. My exhaust note wiped out the sound of theirs and as I went by I saw their faces like "oh sh*! what just happened!!"

Anyways good story man way to go!

What Dave CD did you have in? I went to his concert in Hartford this past July. He is great! I love cruising to Dave in my 430.
