Those Spyders are pretty quick and pretty ugly
Funny Story
Ok,
So I'm driving my baby home from work, Cruising along as usual when an unusual blue colored vert screams up behind me, tailgating etc to get by me.
I get frustrated with him, downshift into 4th and blow into the fast lane up to about 130. To my surprise, the blue vert was right on my tail the whole time.
A little cat & mouse for about 5 minutes, although too much traffic to have a decent contest. All I knew about the car was it was a Maserati convertible. I did some research on the net when I returned home. Come to find out this ass bag was racing me in a 97,000 Spyder Convertible. For that much money, it should have left me in the dust. I would have to say the gt vert held it's own in the race, which I think pissed off the Spyder driver just a little. Pretty impressive that I could almost buy 3 of my verts for the price he paid for his car!

what the hell were you thinking???????? 130 in traffic, playing cat and mouse games for five minutes. what about the other peoples lives you and the other person put in danger?????. let the person past, it's not worth killing yourself or others over.
just my opinion
and yes i know what opinions are like --- everyone has one and they usually stink
roll safe, don't need to wreck your new vert.

good point. i did shut it down and let him go after a short period of time but i appreciate your point.
glad you took my comments the way they were meant. wasn't ragging on you we all do things like that with our stangs. hate tailgaters myself and i usually try to let them go, you know how they are; their cars is cooler, faster, and they are more important than we are and we should not be slowing them down. or they just like to piss us off. Keep the rubber on the road.clubt said:good point. i did shut it down and let him go after a short period of time but i appreciate your point.
