Not really a race, but this place is getting pretty lame and I never get to post any racing stories, so I'm going to have to bore you guys. Sorry.
Today I was driving my friend to the airport when I saw a nice BMW in the distance behind me and he was gaining....looked like a new 745. There was a some traffic, but there was an opening so I zipped up ahead a little bit to show him that I wanted to play. I was quickly caught behind traffic. He also sped up and was behind me driving somewaht aggressively. There was traffic mind you so we weren't racing. However, I was driving with the O/D off at like 75-80 mph and it reminded me once again how torquey these babies are in the upper RPM range. I love it. So anyway, we were in the fast lane. It opened up for a second and I merged into the middle, behind another car and then into the right lane, no car in front of me. He also had no one in front of him in the fast lane and we both zipped up to about 95 or so. It was pretty cool. We quickly caught up to traffic so I had no chance to see how badly he would beat me.....it did turn out to be a 745. I'm sure he was impressed with the little bit I showed him of the Mark VIII even though he would definately take it in his car.
Good times in the Lincoln.
