So I'm on my way back from Droooz's place and I come up on an R33 Turbo and a Subaru Liberty B6 that are hustling through traffic. They both stop at a set of lights, clear road ahead, and proceed to 'hit it' when the light goes green :banana:
The Skyline pulls away from the Liberty, but not by much. I follow in pursuit, but at a safe distance :)
The road then goes from 2 lanes to three........ :D I was behind the Skyline in the middle lane, but as he gets to a red light up ahead, he swings into the left lane.
R33 vs R8 vs B6.... the 'imports' are revving their engines, but I'm just keeping a keen eye on the traffic lights ;) Light goes green, and with a clear road ahead, we go BANANAS :banana: :banana: :banana:
I am in front all the way to 125, at which point the gbox shifts to 3rd and I back off. The B6 backed off MUCH earlier (boo :rolleyes: ) but the Skyline is right with me. In fact, he doesn't get ahead, until I back off :o :D
We roll up on yet another set of lights, and this time the B6 is ready to go. He gets the jump on me by about 2 car lengths, but I catch up at about 100 and he can't pass me till I back off at 120 :bunny:
After that, the B6 makes his way home, and I get to chat to the R33 owner at (yet another) stop light. He says his car has been 'worked' has some bolt-ons, etc, I tell him it sounds sweet (coz it did). He says thanks, then we head our separate ways :)
About 5 minutes later, a lower spec W203 starts revving it's engine trying to get my attention at another set of lights. I look over, look back, then proceed from the light at a normal pace...... the 203 fails to deliver :P
