I passed this guy on 6th street today on my way to Mopac. Left him a block behind. I position myself to enter the Mopac on ramp off 6th. It's a nice sweeper for those who don't live in Austin. Melissa has cold tires so I'm not pushing real hard. She slides just a bit into a 4-wheel drift then hooks up and keeps on going like she's not even phased. I look in my rear view mirror and the guy I passed was trying to make the corner at the same speed. He looses it big time and ends up backwards in the dirt. I think he only hurt his pride.
It felt bad and good at the same time. My passenger (my boss lady) wasn't even scared. My Melissa is so CHOICE!
MY BAD!

 

Oops, Serves 'em right for trying to even come close to our Stooks, huh?

 

What was your pursuer driving?

 

Don't feel bad. Only one thing caused that accident: the bad judgment of the driver in the other car.

6th going on Mopac North?

Thats a fun corner, but been a few months since I last visited home, aka Austin...

even being relocated doesnt make me forget some of the fun roads in Austin...

 

Get that guy to follow you on 2222 to 360. it'll be even more exciting...

 

Sounds like Darwin's theory in practice.

 

Heh heh, 2222 and 360 have nothing on the God of all roads, 337!

 

Yea 337 rules. I'll be on it Saturday.
He was driving some kind of FWD POS. I didn't pay it much mind. He would have made the corner had he stayed in it. I saw his front end push, then I could tell he backed off cuz the front end hooked up and the back end came around. After that it was over.
