Homeboy in the 'Lac wasn't havin' it, so I floored it. So did he. At this point I just busted up laughing...here I am racing some 80 year old dude jus tryin' to get in front of him before my lane ends! Anyway, I got my door to his front bumper and couldn't pull on him anymore. I HAD TO BRAKE AND GET IN BEHIND HIM!! Good show old man!
Yeah, those Northstar V8 motors got some pep. Almost same thing happened to me about six months ago. Wanted to switch lanes, decided to try to speed up a bit to grab a slot in front of a Caddy next to me, but he wasn't going to let me have it. As much as I gassed it, he equaled it.
