Almost shamed the .org community

I just came home after havin a few beers. WTF red '01 Chrysler Avenger -or how they're called, pulls up and give me hell of a run. I almost redlined in 3rd, then threw it in 4th and he left off. WTF is my car too slow? Those Chryslers are slow, they come with 2.5 V6 and auto tranny, right? That particular car had no visible modifications...

I think the important question is:

How many beers?

i think those domestic cars have nice power up to 40mph or something like that, then they are slow.. i rented a malibu once, and the car seemed fast, until I raced my own maxima against it...

do you think I'm kidding???I revved my car up to 6000rpm in 3rd gear and that sucka was right next to me. This area is now flooded with modded cars since 2 performance shops opened up a few mos. ago...

So you're more ashamed that you lost in a race than you are of driving after "having a few beers"...

hmmmmmmm....

and you are ashamed of the .org community? Why? How could this internet forum hinder the way your car performs or your driving ability (I think somthing else did that).

Isn't anyone hanging out tipping cows anymore?

i think what he is trying to say is that he "almost shamed the .org community" by nearly losing to a Chrysler.....

thank you very much. For the rest of you all, leave my driving ability alone, I am talking cars here. That Chrysler hung with me at the top of my 3rd gear! Does it mean he had NOS? He would've called me then completely right..soon as as I shifted to 4th he backed off, not sure if he shut down on purpose. If I ever gonna see that sucka again, it is on for another one.

BTW I did kill him, and then lowered my speed so he can catch up and I killed him maybe 2-3 times. But at what price..

are you sure it wasn't the newest one? Like a 2k2? They come with the 200hp Mitusu v6 and a 5sp! If it was a 2k-2k1 auto v6(like 170ish), then i'd say something is up with your ride, or he had some sleeper mods.
