Default First Real Victim of my TC

Hey Guys,

So I was on the road today on the way to work. I get tried by a lot of people all day but I don’t race just anyone, today I had to. Me and a guy in a Ferrari 458 raced all out on the high way until about 5000rpm in 5th. I did not even know how fast I was going but I was flying :-) Damn it felt good I’m not one to race on the street but I had to give this guy some.

We started out in 3rd and both punched it at the same time. I pulled on him 3rd spinning tires and then in forth i pulled some more. After i went through forth I threw a little fifth and let off. I was a head of him by about 3 cars or more. He flew by me, when we got off he was like wtf? He was trippin out. The only crappy thing is my car was letting out all this smoke from the engine while I was talking to him so it looked like a broke something but it was just the header wrap. The car had never gone all out like that yet. EGT's hit about 1300-1400F Damn! 19psi. Here is a link to the car i ran:

Just a little heads up - you get pulled over with your gopro filming you while street racing, and the cops have evidence to prosecute you right there. Maybe not the best thing to do - I am suprised R&S is supporting street racing.....

If they caught you street racing to begin with, they wouldn't need your GoPro video....

I'm not much into doing things on the street anymore, but lets not forget I was perhaps one of the biggest ones on this forum with the 50+ vids I have on Youtube. If you going to do it though, there is a difference between saying "Hey I beat a 458" than saying "Watch this vid of me beating a 458". Just because I don't do it anymore, don't mean I wouldn't watch the video of someone else doing it...lol
