Default Neck and neck with a BMW M6 Coupe...

There we were on mu way home on the LIE- US 495, I dropped to 2nd and hit the gas, he dropped and hit his and wow..unnbeleiveable, neither of us could outpace the other, just back and forth...neck and neck. The sound of this coupe with its 4 pipes.. :-)

Oh..if you know the LIE..its typical bumper to bumper during rush hour.

Default That road should be called the "Hell-I-E"......

I have a client in Holtsville and I have to allow so much time to get there that I am either an hour or two early or sometimes as much as two hours late.

I have experienced similar low (or no) speed "races" to yours with Porsches and other exotica. The great thing about (barely) moving parking lots like the LIE is that they are a great leveller and in the allroad you can increase the hight so that for once you can look down on them!

Default ...and she let you get away with it? That's cool ;-) I still believe you have a set of K04's sitting

in your garage....just no time to install them yet, this conclusion is just logically because you like to "play" with the allroad way too much ;-)

Default Hmmm he musta been toying with you..........

The reason i say that is:
2006 M6: 500hp/383ftlb,vehicle weight 3769 that's roughly 1hp/7.5 lb.& 1ftlb/9.8lbs

paulrod ar: 350hp/300ftlb, vehicle weight 3877. that's roughly 1hp/11lb & 1ftlb/13lb.

Or maybe he shoots trap.Reloads his own and had 1000lbs of shot in the trunk.

Default Reread Paul's post...

I think he means that neither of them had much room to travel Probably a good thing...I try to avoid the streetracer scene...unless of course there is not too much traffic and the Honda-baby at the light thinks he's all that....everyone has to have a vice or two

Default Knowing the LIE.....

I think I did get it.....my GF would have pushed me off the next exit just to keep moving....LIE sucks!

And I'm not moving away from you hiding some K04's somewhere......the Cliffs video is still out there and remember the posts about brining the Evo8 home? No, I think I got it, just a bit mixed up in the sentence....sorry about that ;-)
