Was out for a cruise on 495 East this afternoon in moderate traffic. I saw the Z roadster and cracked a nice smile when I saw the M badge and dual exhaust. It was on!:sneaky:
I first passed him slowly, we were at 65-70 mph. He didn't seem interested at first. Then I got in front of him. He must of read my plate(60UNDER5) and figured he would school me. The expressway is 3 lanes wide. When I saw a nice opening I moved into the center lane, we had a good 1/2 mile stretch.
He wasted no time flooring it as he came next to me,I saw the ass of the car squat. I was in 4th, I dropped into 3rd because he moved out quick. I was in 3rd very briefly, grabbed 4th and pulled him right in and proceeded to pass him before we had to slow down. I think we hit about 130.:lildevil:
We both slowed up because of the traffic and rolled down the windows..
His reaction was classic.. :bonkers: That THING is fast, man! My reply was don't feel bad, This THING has 400 HP..:thumbsup:
The guy was cool and played back and forth for about 10 miles. We stayed on each other, never letting the other guy out manuever.
We had atleast 3 more openings and brought the cars up to 145 mph.
Let me tell you, That car runs! The V was able to pull away if he was behind me, and I was able to catch up if I did'nt run out of road first.:D
But, that M Roadster is no slouch and even though the V can pull away, the guy can still hang in the 120+ mph range.
Awesome fun on a Saturday afternoon. I love this car. On the way back home I catch a nice Jaguar XJ8. His chick was admiring the V and reading the plate!!:coolgleam
