I unintentionally had some gapplesauce for breakfast this AM during my morning commute.

Saw a sleek newer black mercedes and blew past him so he couldn't cut me off, he puts in the legwork to get next to me for the light. I'm on the phone with my GF (hands free of course), wasn't sure if he was fully committed, and haven't really had a lot of practice launching my car.

Needless to say he was gone before I was barely off the line. I banged through 1-2-3 in an attempt to keep up and it was a fools errand. At the next light he said it was diesel, was a nice guy in his 40's or so, we were both chuckling (s400d with a big turbo????) I was shook lol.

I'm sure driver mod would have helped a lot here. - Sig doesn't have my car at the time of this post but its a stock 19 bullitt.

If someone jumps you off the line because you weren't racing, it's best to just drive normally. The only way to win, is not to play.

Lets say I sorta was. But I definitely wouldn't call it "fully committed" or "fully paying attention"

Ran a Tesla I’m assuming it was a model 3. We were at a stoplight next to each other and I didn’t think anything about it but he hit it and stayed in it for a while I didn’t race. So the next light we are next to each other and I’m ready. I hit it just before it went green(watching the other lights for timing)got a little jump on him. It was about 40 degrees outside so I needed something cause it’s a no hook situation with stock tires. I see him get to my rear bumper so I add some throttle and start spinning. I feathered it out and put about 2 lengths on him at around 80-90. He wouldn’t look at me at the next light and waited for me to leave. Those Tesla’s are mean off the line.

Local E85 pump usually has some nice cars and people trying to race. Did a test run last night to see how the new PMAS (no tune version since AED makes me go on the rollers again for a revision) runs vs. my Injen Evolution. Met a kid in an Evo 8 or 9 last night running E85, 35lbs of boost, and some aggressive sounding cams. Turbo was loud as hell. He wanted to run me so I said screw it. We went from 30-130 and were pretty much dead even the whole time with me pulling slowly, which was really just while he was shifting so I'll call our cars even. I forgot to ask him how much power he's making, but he did say he picks up 220whp on E85 vs. gasoline. My car again is an E85 A10 tuned by Shaun @ AED running through the factory cats

Those Evo's are really fast when built correctly-I had one. But 220 whp increase from E85? He's dreaming-it's more like 70 gross hp.

I hope you weren't the one driving the Roush car.... I also hope no one got hurt.

Hmmm, could he have gotten the tag number from that Roush car that I am sure will be written in the report, as causing the accident by fleeing from law enforcement?

I would love more details other than fluff...
Roush guy was leaving Cars n Coffee and did a hard launch from intersection while leaving. Police car pulled a quic u-turn without lights and was sideswiped by van. Think the cops pride was the only injury.

Roush guy could face charges for that I would think. Lucky no one was hurt. Maybe next time Roush guy won't be a douche leaving C and C.

If I were Roush guy, I wouldn't be answering any unexpected knocks at the door.
