Well as a pickup man, I find it absofuckinlutely hilarious when I even stay
near a muscle car. I don't recall saying anything about beating it, not
sure where you assumed that from... My point is a 4x4 vs. a c4, yeah he was
leaving me past 60mph, but it wasn't by much. And you know how that vette
driver was driving? Interesting, don't recall you being there... but oh
well. He was trying more than "playing with me" as I do believe I know what
an LT1 at WOT sounds like. Interesting how some people can read something
which was not actually written.
