On the way to work...

I was on the way to work last night, I was on a two lane secondary road. Minding my business enjoying the ride cruising at 65, this red 2001 Celica with the "Action Package" comes up, slows down, then attempts to accelerate on me,(4 banger) My max is fast! I laughed,downshifted caught & created a very noticeable gap between he and I. I was looking over to see where he went (at least a car length behind now)and I glanced back and was holding at 120 mph! He didn't have enough to attempt another move It felt like the car was on rails! I just shut it down, he tries to fly by me and damn near swerved into the median because the righthand curve ahead was so sharp, he didn't know the road, lost what little coolpoints he had along with the race. What is the top speed for the 2K2 SE?

If he's got a deathwish, it will be granted in due time.

i've been to 133 in my 2k2 auto, at that point i had to slow down for traffic, i'm guessing the 6sp. can get about 150 or so and my auto maybe 143 or so
