Another honda race story, Victor is victorious. Yawn.

[volks.wagen@verizon.net (Jason)]

Way to go, gotta keep those rice burnin punks in their place. On another
note. Went into the city last weekend to see a movie (Signs). When we were
leaving we conveintly pulled up next to a newer GTI. I was driving my Audi.
So I blip the throttle a bit to see if he is into it. He also blesses me
with a blip of the throttle. So the light turns green and we both take off
amid lots of blue tire smoke. Now the cool part for me was that we both
stayed side by side. We both also seemed to be shifting at almost the exact
same time. So anyway, we did this for two blocks getting up close to 80mph
between lights. At the 3rd light he turned right and I went straight. He
pulled up next to me and tooted the horn and waved to me. I was surprised to
see an older man driving it. I would guess he was in his 50's. Anyway, it
was just cool to run into another vw enthusiast and have some fun late at
night.....
