Family car eats younglings souped ride?

I was on my way back from work, holding at a red light, with a pretty sweet looking VW Golf, throttling up and down, ready to blast off from the green light. When the green light finally shows, I accelerate pretty normally and pulls away with no big deal. The next lightsignal turns red and I slow down and stop, while they fly across the intersection for a red light, hm? I must admit it made a smile appear on my face, that 1.9 tonnes of family stationcar could eat a pimped out 1.3 tonnes vehicle, and they didn't have the guts to stop next to me at the next red light

Just my 2 cents hehe

All you have to do is read it and think of what he's trying to say. It's actually pretty clear. Besides, English isn't probably his first language so his post may not be 100% clear, but one gets the idea.

Yeah, I was really surprised how a diesel could accelerate and go like this, especially when you floor it and it down shifts, and takes it all the way to the end of the rev-counter. I bet it surprises the kids racing in their pimped out hatchbacks

"I flew with my two-and-a-half-year-old recently. It was four and a half hours each way and I was really worried about keeping her busy, so I brought lots of stuff for her that she has never seen before: stickers, coloring books, new crayons, scissors, glue-sticks, and shapes cut out of paper. But I have to say that the most entertaining item I brought was a new puzzle made by Lego. Every single puzzle piece fits into each other - no worrying about her getting frustrated and screaming or even needing my help. I just put pieces into zip-lock bag and off we went. The puzzle alone kept her busy for most of the first plane ride!"
