Default Porsche Carrera

Before you waste your time reading this: No Race takes place.

Found a Porsche Carrera.. He was going my way so I followed him.. figured he would have beaten me down bad if I raced him so I basically just checked out his car for awhile.. but he was driving like a grandma.. It was red and it looked like a 93-98 model year... the guy looked like a tool.. 40ish and wearing old style sunglasses with a flat top. his female passenger was decent looking.. no hottie.. so I floor it from a light next to him.. nothing from him that I can tell.. Then I get next to him.. have someone infront of me making a right turn.. here they come to a full stop before turning in the middle of the road for some reason.. so he is rolling right up next to me when i floor it from a dig and i just quickly pass him.. no attempt to even stay ahead of me.. and he had no traffic in front of him.. I figured he had no interest in wasting his gas.. but then I just checked wikipedia on the performance specs and I guess its possible I could have beat him handily if he had the 1995 carrera 4 so he didnt want to look like his porsche sucked with his girl with him... he probably told her how much faster his car was than mine so it was pointless to do it..[&:] oh.. and in both circumstances I stopped accelerating once i hit 5 over the speed limit (they don't even stop you here for less than 10).. so he couldn't even use the excuse that he didn't want to speed or too much traffic, as nobody was infront of us each time.

umm, good...possible kill...there are a lot of porsche drivers here in houston that usually dont do anything...the caymans and boxsters dont race cause they dont want to look bad in their "exotic" sports car...the 911T's dont race cause you're not worth their time...although, i did have that one 911GT2 destroy me when all i was trying to do was look at his car[>:]...i hope he didnt think i though i had a chance
