Default another kill plus a cool ending

sorta raced this dude driving one of these tonight



we both made a left turn, I'm thinking since this guy has his kid onboard no dice, he punches it, I hear the turbo spool up, Note: moves pretty good.
By the top of the hill I have him by a truck length or three
He pulls up next to me and says, "Damn! that thing is fast! Diesel?" I said no, gas. He says " your truck is awesome!, beautiful" then he turns the corner.
I have to say, thats about the nicest anyone has been to me after a race

cool dude, and that 250 hp saab surprised me a bit

It's fun surprising people in sporty little cars. Even better when they act impressed instead of pissed off.
