Default Beat a GT-R

I smoked a new, white GT-R on the way to rehearsal last night.

On the sweeping on-ramp from the 405N to the 10E, he was MAYBE a couple feet off my bumper (guy in his 40s with a nice blond next to him). I thought "You wanna play? OK", and coming off the curve of the ramp I VTEC'd every gear and made some moves he could not do (nothing stupid of course, but the GT-R is nowhere near as agile) and he gave up. Then he gets off at La Brea after me and catches up but we did not play on the streets of course....wellll....I did one other quick move and lost him again. hahahaha

I should have let him pull up to my side so the blond could switch cars.........

White.

He seemed to, but if he didn't that is his problem. You challenge and ride my bumper, don't out hahaha

I'm telling ya, our power to weight ratio really helps, and the GT-R suffers from 350Z Bloated Disease.

Obviously, though, straight line I lose...

Gotta tell ya, I have not VTEC'd every gear in awhile. Man, my adrenaline shot out of my ears like the first test drive. No lie. My heart was poundin'.
