I got on the highway immediately after leaving the drag strip in Mexico tonight and immediately got passed by a sweet sounding Cobra. I saw the numbers on the windows and quickly realized it was the same one running at the track. But before I could speed up to see if he wanted to play, a tuned Focus ST (which I actually put buses on at the track) passed me and paced the Terminator. The highway coming from the strip is pretty empty no matter what time of the day it is so I had a feeling that something was about to go down. The Cobra pulled hard from the hit then just let off, I guess he was pretty sure the Focus ST wasn't going to catch up. The Cobra cruised at around 60ish and the Focus ST went on ahead giving me an opening.
Knowing that the Cobra was down to run, I immediately pulled up alongside it. I heard the Cobra downshift at around 50ish so I followed suit and put my slush box in DS mode, big mistake... He honked it off and we both laid on it. My car downshifted and all I heard was the Eaton whining and his exhaust roaring by me as he put a length on me right off the bat. We slowed back down to around 40ish so I went to 3rd hoping for a better pull. He honked it off again and we ended up taking off at the same time. We were literally door-to-door for what seemed like forever. He lost a little bit of ground every shift while I kept inching away. We let off in the triple digits with his front bumper by my front wheel. I got behind him afterwards as he was giving a thumbs up, I gave him a honk in return.
I know, not the most exciting story... but it's not everyday we get a chance to get some pulls in around here. If the owner is a member here, thanks for the runs!
TL;DR
Terminator with unknown mods jumps all over bolt-on 135i on one race. 135i inches away from said Terminator in the second race.
