So Im on the way to school Thursday at about 5pm.
I turn off the exit onto Memorial Dr. (Atlanta Area)
This mercedes cuts some people off to get next to me.
So I rev the engine and Im thinking this should be fun.
Well he reved his engine right before the light turned and Im like wait that don't sound like no mercedes, but it is to late to back down now. Green light. I get the jump but then game over. He passed me and I saw the back of the car and it said AMG 55. I still tried my best but he pulled about a half a block ahead of me. I was so ashamed I did not even go to school. I went home and looked up that car on the net and it says that is one of the fastest car mercedes has ever made.
But you win some you loose some.

THis is when the beauty of air filter, exhaust, super heavy duty clutch and Zex nitrous kicks in. Super drag race!

Keep in mind tht the AMG 55 is 4100lb.

Maybe some of us have the power to win the AMG55, but peopel who drives these cars are mainly drug lords, you never wanna mess with them!!!
