Fun with a Nissan

Well I was on my way back from Silverstone after dropping off some friends
for the British Grand Prix in my S600. On the way back. In my mirror I noticed a GTR so I pulled
over, and floored it, sure he began to pull away but not as quickly as I would
have thought, he was about 3 car lengths in front about 100mph when he slowed,maybe he didn't want a ticket and I quickly caught him, then we came to a roundabout/traffic circle and he braked hard and drove all round
the edge, what appalling driving, then he was off, at this time I wish I had a
65 or a re map on the 600, once again he pulled a few car lengths to about
100 then slowed, we got to another roundabout and I had to turn left, he braked and I overtook him on the inside lane which took me left, I looked across at the driver, he was just a kid, or looked like it, he looked at me
very confused look, perhaps he thought he was going to annihilate and big old
Merc. Wish I had it re mapped before, but I am now.

Only to 100? Geez, that's hardly letting the 600 stretch its legs. Kids these days...no respect

No point having it , if you can't use it
Trouble with all super cars is you got to be prepared to do 160 plus, otherwise
my big daddy will be on your tail.
