    Toying with a ES330

    I rarely post my kills here. But this one was differnt so here goes.

    I was driving about 60 on the freeway in 5th gear on the right lane of the 2 lane FWY when this black 2003 lexus ES330 goes wizzing by, prolly at about... 70...75. The guy was talkign on his cell phone yapping away and didn't see how close he was to my lane. I'm like WTF.. "ASS!!".

    He's about 6 car lengths ahead of me slowing down with traffic up ahead (a single 02 mustang) in his lane. The mustang sees that the es330 is going fast and moves over. the es stomps on it. I move over to the left lan and still in 5th press on the gas. Boost meter shoots up to 15 psi. I want to see what this asshole can do. HE sees me in his rearview and flips me off. Tries to speed off. but can't

    I romp on it (in 5th mine you). Gap shortens... going from 6... 4... 2... 1. Try as he may he can't out run me. I'm right on his tail. Leting off the gas and pressing lightly on it agian and agian to let the bastard hear the BOV. PSssshhht. PSshhhhhht. Now he's like "wtf?!". PSssshhht. PSshhhhhht.

    I check the speedometer and we're at 105.

    damn heres my exit, I quickly swapp to the right lane then exit.


    ahhh... no more fun with mr es330. buh-bye now.

    Funny thing about how fast were were going i still had way more rpm to burn before redlining. I really new to run this baby at the track.

                  Yeah if you're on the interstate you don't really need to downshift with our trannys. Man you're making me wish I had my Protege right now... oh just in case you guys didn't now, my turbo went out on me so I bought a 5.0 Mustang as a daily driver. Don't worry though I'm still keeping the Protege. I just have to come up with some money to fix it. At least in the mean time I'll have something to drive. Btw... my Protege is so much faster than my Stang.

                  Damn I just noticed my pic doesnt work anymore... anybody out there that can help me out?

                    I'm thinking of buying another DD and probably use the pro as strictly a drag car for the summer. We'll see. Its all dependent. Might not even keep it, if i get a buyer for nothing less than 10k$

                      well, you already know that I have the 323.. It is getting a BP and headers but that is kind of about it. I want it to be quick as ****, but yet still get a good 28 to 30 mpg..
