Tricky-Ricky Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Was out today with the misses, cruised up to a set of lights on a DC in the outside lane, and the road merges into one lane directly after the lights, Mr Peugeot diesel of some deception in the inside lane, now normally i get the jump on most things, whether by intimidation, you know what i mean if you have seen my Supra, or otherwise. But Mr pug decides that he's going to try and make me look silly with his torque monster, and anyone who owns a singled Supra, will know that a good sized diesel up to 30 MPH is 8 times out of ten quicker:innocent: So as you can probably guess, with the pug getting the jump on me, and me thinking , I'm not having that, a slightly harder prod on the throttle results in a lot of noise and very little else, until the turbo spools up double quick with a horrendous noise from the screamer pipe,results in me getting past and saving face, or did i, in fact making all that fuss to get past Mr pug actually made me feel somewhat embarrassed:blush: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axle Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I know what you mean mind. There was some Idiot in an Alfa Romeo V6 and half his family in it who did similar with me. Thing is he actually got the better of me to around 30 odd MPH till second turbo kicked in. By which point i got to 40MPH and slowed down due to speed limit. But yeh was a pointless excercise but still. I won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 You backed off and let him past right? I did indeed. I wouldn't have wanted him to reach a corner and hit some 'diesel'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
