Couldn't shake a Hemi RT
Got into it with a Hemi RT, the station wagon thing.. I was in 3rd gear at about 60mph and we got on it till a little over 100. I barely pulled.. I mean inches the whole time. I was pulling, but it was like a snail crawling past his car. I didn't think those were so quick. My 6mt is stock, 04. But I didn't think that big wagon had soo much go...

yea it was a very close run... we were neckn' neck from 60-80 I had about 5 ft then i shifted lost about 3 ft of that and gained another couple ft by 100. Didnt want to risk anything so i shut down a little in front of him. But i mean it was a frustrating race... get it over with... someone pull ahead...!!!!!!

funny. i just went up against a 300c here.
the roads i was driving on were straight for short bits then had bends and were straight again, etc. also, we drive on the opposite side of the road.
anyway i thought the 300c would be so close in competition i didnt even try to pull on him in the straights.. i just trailed him. then we got up to a part with a series of bends, we were both doing 90 or so. i floored it going in (i drive that section a lot - its fun). up to 100 or so things were ok for both of us, i was slowly pulling. By 110-120 i was ahead by a small margin - a few cars- i figured he was slowing down for the turns but wasnt sure. in between bends he couldnt really close the gap. anyway halfway into the next bend i saw the left side of his car start to go off the road he slowed down a lot after that... at the next open stretch he wanted to race again though... i declined
