Default BEAT AN M3

Was cruising with my cousin on Saturday night. Not looking for any races, but shortly after I took off from a light, a 98 bmw m3 got beside me at about 15 mph and gave a quick blip of the throttle. I nailed it, he did too. I broke loose due to suddenly stomping the pedal, I pulled on him the entire time, and put about a car on him when I saw his lights dive down to slow down. It was fast, but I was very impressed to bag this kill. He rolled up beside me and complimented my car, I did the same. He said his was aslightly modded 98. His exhaust sounded mean!!

Nice! I love it! I especially love when I get good rolls on upscale expensive cars. It just somethign about them shelling out 40 grand for their car with the salesmen telling them how wonderful they are then me rolling with them in my plastic interior USA Muscle. <IMG src=smileys/smiley16.gif border="0"></P>

of course it isn't "rice", but it's a high end tuner car in my definition
