Unbelievable!
I pulled up to the red light.
Turned green, ease on the gas, on P500 S4.
That dude is on full throttle!

Well I slam the gas, half of the engine bay lead when shifted to 2nd.
Zoomed away~! And he slowed down.

Hey I am not your 525i buddy!

No matter what car I am in I always make it look like a close race and let them pull me a little. I also look for the kill stories the next day too

I probably wouldnt have given someone like that the time of day. I would have pulled up to the next light, looked and laughed at him. But way to shed a little reality on his drive!

One of my neighbors has a supercharged LS that he runs NASA with. In high-boost, he struggles to put the power down at low speeds, so his 1/4 mile times are low 12's, with trap speed in the high 130s. That's not a typo. Most of them are pigs, but his car is a bona fide beast.

I'll watch out in Austin area.
Haven't seem too many beasts along the gulf coast.
