Similarly, I(along with the V8 and the red Coupe[cool car btw] got stuck
behind a pickup that you guys passed.  I put in a little extra effort and
caught up.  I suspect I was hitting at least 85.  The little 1.8T isn't
great off the line but it does well in the middle ranges.  I want a chip.

I wouldn't want to have been in that white 4000 bouncing around(it did
impressively well though).

I was listening to the heavy metal CD I made on my CD Writer.

It might have almost been entertaining to see him yelling at us with his
face a deep shade of crimson.
