Raced against black SLR (pic)
yesterday night i was back on my way from munich to paderborn (where i live) it was a boring 500km trip. but suddenly i saw some very strange lights in front of me, i pushed the hell out of my diesel to see what car has so extraordinary backlights. this autobahn part was limited to 120km/h so i could catch the strange car. hm, it was black, had super-bright LED-lights, very wide and very low, no exhausts? yeah i was driving just behind a privat (Licenseplate from Göttingen) black SLR. the drive was very cool and over 50km long i could follow him, drove side by side, and he let me getting in front of him. 2 times he gave his baby a nice kickdown and wooot, these sidepipe produce an awsome sound and acceleration is outstanding! but than he slowed down so i could follow him again.
thanks to the really cool unknown SLR owner for making may trip home really exciting.
i only shot on bad foto with my mobile-phone, but have you ever tried to follow an SLR with a VW Passat AND shot fotos the same time? *grin*

thanks for your postings! i think whenever you saw something interesting, you should take a pic and post it.
funny story bevor the SLR-meeting:
i was invited to the BMW-central in munich for an assesment-center. out of 300 people looking for this job (junior salesmen) i made it, due several interviews before, under the last 6. only two were choosen, but not me. so i was some kind of sad/angry while driving back home from the bmw HQ.
after i didn´t got the job, it was really a joy to meet such a nice mercedes and driver this night.
