Raced and audi...

This morning I was waiting at a red light in an industrial area, I see this grey audi moving next to me I'm really not shure which model it is A3 or A4 maybe but dont quote me on this. It was clear that he wanted to take me, I didn't brake torq or anything I was basically calm and waiting to see what he would do, so here we go the light turn green, it took a fraction of a second before I react and decided to go, I then pull the pedal to the metal, and took the lead I was able to kept a 1 car lead all the time, he couldn't gain on me, it was a 5 speeds and I could hear his engine screaming, we shut it off around 130 KM/HR it was a good race even though I didn't had a good launch nor him though. I then proceed to go my way, but after a while we end-up again side to side on a red light, on the green he dumpted the clutch at like 4-5000 rpm and flew like a rocket, I didn't even tried since we were no longer in the industrial area as I didn't want to take any chance. My toughts are this was a tight race for my modded 2k1 auto, with a 5 speeds I would have toasted him for shure.

Eh, give the guy a break. I mean, sure this is the wrong forum and all, but he's probably not a native English speaker. Oh well.

I used to like some Audis, but they just don't do it for me anymore. And the fact that VW makes some of the least reliable vehicles out there doesn't help.
