McLaren 570S vs E92 M3 and a couple of 911s

It's been quite the dry spell. Nobody seems to mess with the Mac. It just elicits a lot of thumbs up, questions and cell phone pics. Today was a bit different. When heading home from coffee I come up on an E92 M3, a 997 and a 992, that were moving through traffic at a fairly brisk pace. I figured I would tag along.

After arriving at a red light, I was behind the German train and we were all making a right onto a 4 lane road. I wasn't sure what these guys had planned, so I dialed up 'Track' mode on the handling and drive train...... just in case!

We all turn right and the 3 of them get side by side with me about 5 car lengths back. They all hit it at about the same time so I figured what the hell, I'll have a go.

The Mac never ceases to amaze me. The 570 realed them in and I was by them so quickly that it was a bit humbling and they gave up the ghost pretty quickly. We were coming up on a nice sweeping on ramp that I was able to give the beans to, but the **** patrol was long left for dead.





After 30 years of Ferraris, I am a convert!
