86 GXL vs Mercedes-Benz
86 GXL vs Mercedes-Benz
Well today I was coming home just taking it easy on the highway. I was testing out some cooling mods I had done to my car and was quite satisfied with the results so I was in a good mood. It usually takes me about 25 mins to get home from the "big city". This city is sperated from my area by a winding road with durastic elevation changes...its quite fun to drive if you don't get caught by the cops.
Anyways I'm about halfway home when i notice a black Mercedes-Benz in my mirror. He doesn't pass me but stays right on my tail as we motor along. I see there is a younger guy driving it so I think "What the heck, lets see what my worn out suspension can do". As i procced to brake hard into the corners, the Benz stays right with me but falls a little bit behind on the hairpin curves. On one such curve I took at about 100km/h which was posted at 40km/k the Mercedes couldn't quite keep up much to my delight. We go racing along until I reach my turn off 15 minutes later. As he passes me I notice it was a newer convertible SL 320 coupe. I don't know the specs on it but I'm just proud of my little rx7 that it could hold its own against a newer german car like that.
Any comments would be welcome
