    that I love, each in their own way...

    99 M Coupe (stock) vs. Ferrari 328 GTS

    Not to be outdone by Phil, here's my tale of intrigue!

    So I was coming home from Radio Shack as I needed some batteries for my calculator and was just cruising along when, *BEHOLD*... in the distance... yes! a 328 GTS! sa-weeet!

    He was getting ready to take the onramp to Rt. 1 here off of Rt. 40 and I punched it to get up behind him. Not aggressive, mind you, but enough so he knows it's playtime... He's pushing it a little and I'm right there behind him taking the turn a bit wide and setting up for the apex. He takes the turn a bit late and I power up right on him. As he lets out a puff of black smoke, I'm already pulling up alongside and screaming towards redline. Since he got out of the turn late, I've got the head start and wooooooosh! I pull by him!

    After getting that out of the way, I change into the right lane and wait for him to catch up....
    He pulls along side and IT'S ON!!!

    We clear through traffic and he gets the punch. He then starts pulling on me! D'OH! Not fast away, but it was a slow walk.

    Oh, well. I catch back up, pull alongside we exchange waves and say goodbye.

    What fun!!!
    I think I was actually aroused!
