    First kill since re-build

    getin on the highway at my favorite onramp and as usual...I'm flyin, doin about 140kph. It was roughly 7:20 pm tonight and there was heavy traffic. The highway's a two laner but my onramp lane goes on forever,prally about 2 kilometers. I slowed a bit but stayed in my lane and continued to pass traffic at a safer pace. Although when I first joined the main flow I noticed out of the corner of my eye, a kitted out late model Probe, but he seemed to be caught in traffic so I payed him no attention. but when my lane was finally to merge with the others, to my surprise he was on my driver door! He hung there for sometime, goading me on, till finally I gave in! Bamn! I drop er into 3rd and immediatly pull ahead...7200rpm and I have a car an a half length on him!!! 4th and still pullin, bout three or four lengths... its all over for the Probe. We join up with the next grouping of traffic and proceed to weave our way through...next opening, he pulls up next to me...repeat...owned!!!

    I'm pretty sure it must have been the fore cylindar probe cause I think the 2.5 woulda spanked me but it was hard to tell with the body kit

    *distances are approxamate...rearview mirror!

            yes I totaly agree and that is why I slowly and methodically "weaved" my way through, being careful not to cut anyone off...untill I hit a break in traffic! Than it was full out...oh! but at one point I did cut the probe off as I flew by in order to miss rear-ending a semi truck...good times!

                            I agree. I got ****ed over on the accident I had in February. Still trying to straighten that out. My insurance doubled because of that.

                            Should be going down to ~$200/month once I get **** worked out.
