2003 C230K Sedan
2002 c230k coupe's 2 kills

I don't usually race much b/c i know my car isn't the fastest or even close to a E55 but occasionally i race b/c other people wanted to.

1) a Ford Expedition
I dont know why he wanted to race since it is a huge SUV with a V8 i think but i can tell the way he wanted to by as i accelerate past him, he kept trying to catch up next to me so i step on the gas a little and easily passed him.

2)well me and my friend always wanted to race. He has a 200 hp '96 Toyota Avalon so after lunch we both stop next to each other on a stoplight and when the light turn green we both step hard on the petal and the tires squeal and i got a lead on him since his front end was at my gas tank but it wasn't a real race b/c he was at the right lane and i was on the left and i had to turn in like 50 feet so i braked and then got behind him. But im sure if the road was longer, i could beat him by a car length. He kept saying he won because i had to get behind him to turn or else i will miss the turn back to school. But i had him even though it was close.

Those look kinda fun. I think the 230k does pretty well at highway speeds, so it's not too surprising that you got past a gas-waster.

We try to race mopeds with our 2003 1.8L 230k sedan. If that doesn't work, there are lots of middle-aged joggers who run on the road in our neighborhood...
