Not Worth Much, But Kill On 300C

Well, last weekend I'm exiting a parkway tollbooth and this 300C pulls out next to me at the same time (I didn't notice him as I pulled out). So I drive out slow to about 10 yards out of the booth at about 15mph, just slowly building a little speed before WOT. So I figure I'd have a couple of seconds of fun and blast to 65 while I could, so I blast the throttle at 4000rpm in 1st gear, but the second I step on it, I see the 300C out of the corner of my eye lurch forward, guess the guy was getting impatient. So as I stomp on the gas, when I hit about 6000rpm my wheels start fightin to grip (I need new tires). So I half grip, half slip through the rest of 1st and most of second (regain traction at about 6500rpm in 2nd). Before I know it the 300C is about 2 cars back. Guess the guy was pissed cause he sat on my *** as I stayed at 65 till we hit a 110 degree turn on the onramp, when I just see him fall behind as I coast through the turn at about 60.

God I love this car.............

(I was running 10 psi when the 300C was there)
