Default My first "challenge"

I was coming back from lunch today and a late model Volvo sedan came up beside me. Three guys in the car, and they were giving me "let's go!" signs. Well, there was a stoplight and we both stopped, and I gave him a thumbs up. He nodded. The stoplight changed and I put my foot in it. Left him sitting in the dust. Not even sure he got on it. After I had him by maybe 10 cars, I let up and let him catch up. They went past all grinning and giving me the thumbs up. I think they just wanted to see what it would do.

Okay, maybe not a challenge exactly, but I enjoyed it. LOL

A kill is a kill. After having it for awhile you will get "challegened" by everyone and their mother. Have fun but be safe

Watch out though, the Volvo S-60R is a 2.5L 5 cylinder 300HP turbocharged engine. I'm guessing it would be a respectable race. I test drove one before I bought my Mustang, and they're pretty quick. Of course almost 400lbs of extra dudes in the car sure didn't help this guy today haha!

Yeah, either it wasn't a S-60R or he didn't even try. There was another guy in my car, too. My boss and I always go to lunch together. So I had a couple a hundred extra pounds, too.
