Neon SRT/4

Last night a Ram SRT/10, now a neon. I was comming home tonight from this Brazilian festival in Newark with my girl. I was on rt 3 just cruising when I see a red srt pull up along side me and pace me for a few seconds. Sounded like he dropped down a gear or two, and then surged ahead a bit. I looked at my girl and said I'm going to play with this guy a bit. I dropped it into 3rd and tried to get even with him but he was already going so I just floored it. I easily pulled in front of him as I would out 3rd. I slammed 4th and stayed on it for a second, but there was traffic ahead and my girl wasn't likeing it so I shut down. Sorry, wish I could have played more. I had to take the next exit to take her home anyway. The funny thing is I am running stock boost right now. My pullies are off because the car is going in for some minor warranty work. I don't know what was done to the srt, I didn't get a good look at it.

Good kill!

Off topic, but how long can you drive your car in Alaska?

Dude, why are you wasting your gas on a neon? Don't you know it's like over $3 a gallon now?

I started running 100LL aviation fuel just because it cheaper.

Boredom? I dunno he wanted to go so I went. I hate how these kids buy these neons and think they are the fastest thing out there.
