Default Raced a Mustang Cobra
Closed-road of course.

Black ragtop Cobra pulls up, grumbling. Gives me a knod.

Green light. I had him easily by a car length all through 1st-2nd-3rd gears at WOT in Autostick mode with TRAC on. I let the PT shift itself at the redline.

He squeaked his tires going from 1-to-2, and 2-to-3. My Yoko ES/100 held to the ground tight, no squeaks except for a slight hop at takeoff. He caught me after I shifted to fourth, but I kinda knew he'd take it up high. My only mods are the Yoko's and silencers/hood-strip removed.

V8 hahahaaaaa!

Good going. Fun isn't it. Sometimes even though I have a feeling that I'll be beat I go for it anyway.. You can always tell that they were very surprise at the get up and go the tank had. Always a thumb up and a smile. Car people of all kinds are great.

As far as Yoko tires, I have heard nothing but good about those tires and when the time comes for replacement those are going on.[?]
