VR-what? (roadkill)

[disclaimer]
Street racing is bad. Exceeding the speed limit for any reason will get you a ticket straight to hell. If you read this roadkill story you are a bad person. Be ashamed, be very ashamed.
[/disclaimer]

So I'm heading back here to work afterlunch and I see a car coming up fast from behind. It was an older VW Passat GLX VR6. Anyway, I punch it and ease past him up to about 110mph. Then we come up to the end of the highway and the ramp splits off to the left. The ramp has a warning sign saying you shouldnt try to take it at more than 40mph. It's really tight, but I take it at at least 70 every day. I brake hard from 100 down to 70 and so does he. As soon as I roll into the turn, he realizes he cant hang and falls back. By the end of the ramp I am a couple hundred yards ahead of him. I punched it again, and never saw him after that.

Fun. That VW couldnt handle the Max power or handling.
