Run in with Mercedes CL500

Well before my car went into the shop for the 1241234512345124 time now I got a run in with two guys who borrowed mommy and daddys CL500. They gave me a thumbs down on the freeway... I had my girl in the car.. she told me go after them. well 2nd gear roll at 50mph couldnt have been more perfect.. they went first and I started 1/2 second later..

Thru 2nd gear I gained, 3rd gear both of us were dead even and 4th gear he got away by like maybe a fender by 130MPH because I hit the rev limiter by mistake going into 4th. Not bad for just intake and exhaust ($20k car) vs a ($90k car) with a 5.0L 302 HP motor. If I wasn't rockin the stock supercharger pulley and half ass HP tune I'd give him a better run. The car weighs in at 4300lbs. Ouch!

Should have won by all rights considering the specs on them but I screwed up my shift
