View Full Version : Mom's car vs. 360 Modena
Eric BMW
05-19-2006, 12:50 PM
So i'm driving for some random errands in my mom's 330cic. Had the top down drivin around pimpin my moms ride. I noticed a red 360 modena taking it easy as he came to a red light. Now obviously because his car was red he maybe, just maybe had the power advantage, weight advantage, tranny advantage, pimp factor advantage, aerodynamics advantage, and overall edged me out with a "that's a pretty cool looking car" advantage.
Anywho back to the story. it was dusk. A slight breeze combed my hair. I looked over in a disrespectful aww. It's a middle aged white male showing signs of a few gray hairs. And then, he inches foward. A little too much engine noise for a little inching foward if you ask me. I knew what he wanted. I smoothly slide my MOM'S super duper sequential automatic into "manual" mode while pretending to reach for the clutch. The light turned green. For that split second I felt the adrenalien rush of the car (or the lag from the automatic). I slowly eased into first keepingcalm abotu punchign it in my beastly 3700 lb machine. I use my peripherals to see him move foward in a nice motion, shiftign and then getting on it hard.
Now here, I let him get a bit of a headstart because I didn't want to embarass him that badly. Letting him get ahead by , 1, 2 maybe 6 car lengths I decide to punch it in second gear. I felt the cool breeze over my face. The heated seats scorching my buttocks. Some girly techno music caressing my ears.
Knowing how badly I was goign to whoop him I did the smart thing and turned into the shopping center (had to do errands) soon after I started to "pull" on him (he came to the next red light). After seeing this and not wanting to upset so many Ferrari fans i've decided to retire from racing Ferrari's in my moms e46 vert.
So you're disappointed with my race are ya? Well let me just tell you this. I was the coolest kid ever driving my moms BMW pretending like it was my own and abusing it as if I had my name on the pink slip. Oh yeah!:redspot

Are you sure he was racing? If he's like alot of my Fcar friends....he may have just been trying to beat you for the best valet spot. Now if I were driving.....things would have been different. :)

I like the F1 trans in those cars w/ aftermarket exhaust - they have a higher idle speed and it sounds great just sitting at the light!
Good story!

Good race, I ran into a 360 spyder the other day in my RX8. The guy couldn't drive or shifted really slow, he got about 4 cars on me from 40-100 mph. It also had big bling chrome wheels FTL.
