ML55 vs Unsupecting Civic and Rx7

Me and a friend are out on a cruise, really nice night in new york so why not. We pull onto the main highway, and at a light I pull up to a 97ish civic lining up with a gen 2 Rx-7, I can see in the window they're egging each other on. I figure why not destroy both their egos with a 5000lb truck. They take off, civic spins off the line as does the rx-7, we're all about even at 20mph, but by 30 we're screaming past the civic the driver looks over with disbelief as both me and my friend wave pulling away. I hit about 80, look a few bus lengths back, both the cars shut down and pull into the right line. That is surely a classic.

Funny stuff. I'd be laughing my azz off too if I watched that happen. Nice ML.

I like that feeling when I beat unsuspecting drivers in my 4door sedan sleeper C36. The latest run was a late model Maxima. Didn't know what killed him!

Sorry for the OT, but how do the C36's run?

I've never seen one at the track, and the only time I've seen one on the highway was when in a loaner
