Now the truth from the guy in S55
"Let's see.....NAV says I am pretty close to the address....where the h ell is this place"
Pulls the M5 off the line for fun then decides.....he's learned his lesson.
"this guy just won't give up, well, time to hammer down again"
at 145, S guy figured this was a waste of his time and backs off. Not everyone likes "let's take it to 185...last man living wins" ricer style races
"Okay so just to confirm, you have me in Rome at the Westin Excelsior Villa La Cupola Suite....fabulous, thanks. Hang on a sec please....what the h ell does that BMW want now...I though we ended this miles ago. "
Its only when he started fiddling around with his dashboard
So we both take off, he gets a little head start
on shifting in 3rd, he was gaining on me slowly
But.. to my total surprise, by 4th gear he stopped gaining on me
I slowed down and he overtook me giving absolutely no gesture whatsoever....
