Me vs. new Red GTO
Coming home form Big Shots tonight I ended up at a light with a New Edge Mustang, a Foxbody Mustang, and a red Pontiac GTO. I was on my Yamaha Raider which I just bought today. We're all sitting at a light and everybody starts revving their engines taunting the cop at the other end of the intersection, which I thought was hilarious. But of course, there was no race to be had about a cop.
A few lights later me, the Red GTO, and the Foxbody line up. The Foxbody didn't appear to want any, but the GTO rolld into the throttle with me. About halfway through first we opened it up with him starting about half a car ahead. Stayed that way through first, brushed the rev limiter (I REALLY need a tach on this bike) and shifted into second, stayed about the same until I brushed the rev limiter again and shifted into third, and the GTO started pulling on me in third. By the time I shifted into forth easily into the triple digits by then (I wasn't looking at my speedo) I gave up and let him haul ass away. Good race whoever you were, you at least had exhaust work; car sounded good. Just thought I'd share.
Oh, and the New Edge Mustang came flying up behind us well after the race was over. Were you actually on it from the light, guy, or were you just 10 minutes late to lay into it?
