Dodge 1500 V8
So I was cruising home on the most cop infested highway we have around here doing 55 mph. I'm in the middle lane cruising top down music up when a Dodge 1500 V8 rolls up next to me. No big deal... until he started revving all 5.7 liters. Could barely hear it over all the wind noise, took me awhile of sensing him pacing to know he wanted to go. So slowed down to the speed limit of 50 mph, did a look around for cops, and put it in 2nd gear, bringing me up to 8,000 rpms. I let him punch it, then follow suit and top off 2nd. Hit third and its buh bye. Let off a little over halfway through 3rd being about 2-3 good cars ahead and pulling. Slowed down to below the speed limit and he caught up. Funniest thing was he had to lean over to his passenger seat to look at my car again since his truck sat so high. This was my first "race" in a long time, and being that my car was still wet from washing it, I didn't see the harm in getting those last few drops to come off and teaching a V8 a lesson at the same time . I know it was nothing amazing or close, just thought I'd share another V8 being beaten by a 4 cylinder.

This is hilarious b/c I had a Ford Lightning run on me. I guess he thought he was the shit til I easily put a few cars on him. Silly truck guys... I'm not even worried about Dodge's SRT-10 truck.

That's roadkill I have no idea what kind of animal it is, I didn't even know it was on there. I was on an S2000/NSX group drive, we pulled over for a pitstop and a guy came up to me and said, "I hate to be the one to tell you this, but you've got a big hunk of meat hanging on your bumper." We took a few shots before I scraped it off.
