Slaying a Brother

Hopefully not anyone in the forum.

E55 silver or pewter, on the 101 North decides to buzz me, gets up on my tail slows, gets back on my tail slows.......I was thinking must be someone that knows of the car from this forum. I figure a race is a race although I know the cars are close may as well do a couple blasts. 100 mph I punch it no horn honk just the hammer, guy is trying but cannot catch up . I brake and he flys bye, this time a 80 ish hammer from the side of him. Cars are glued then like magic at 115 I begin to PULL AWAY wow.Other driver will likely post he was squeezed on , lol. Sorry to my MB family for this intra family kill. Now I know why GUSTAV likes the higher speed

Getting the jump on a car is not a fair race if you ask me. You should have done 3 honks or something

But if the cars were glued together and he didn't pull away until 115 then that's a moot point, no? 7 speed and NA like high speeds. Good run, Juicee.

Yeah first race was not real fair but once he understood we were going he floored it same time or very close on the second run, like I said we were side by side , i slowly pulled away after 115. So it just provided some truth too the thought that perhaps gearing and high rev would help finish off the higher torque lower revving engine. I think from zero to 160 would be really fun. From my experience it seems the 55 would be 1-1.5 cars ahead to this 115 point then the 63 would pass and finish a few cars ahead. JMHO..LOL about GUSTAVS rolls. Seems he has the bimmer completely mastered. BTW 4th gear in the 63 is where you want to be taking off in 3rd. at 145 still in 4th. then BRAKES

Wonder who the guy was , I was certain it would be a member here.

Its an active airport so may not happen . They do rent pieces out and I have been there in some fast cars it was 120 degrees LOL..I will ask some location managers for car commercials where we can go and legally hit the limiter. A couple years ago we rented a section of an unopened highway. Drag strips should have a 1/2 mile run
