Got a funny story for you guys...
Not last weekend but weekend before after the meet and cruise I was on my way back to Bremerton and decided to take the 167 by the Puyallup river there. Still in the city area it's a 45 mph zone and I'm following a black dude on a bike, he's doing 40 in said 45. Naturally I drop it into 3rd and punch it around him on the right after following him for enough time to allow him to get out of the way if he's going to. As I'm passing him I hear him try to get on it clearly in too high a gear and bogging his bike, so I slow down a bit and let him catch up. He does and drops it a gear or two to pass me, as he does this I drop it back into 3rd and hit it. 45 to around 80 in 3rd and he's struggling to keep up. That's when I spot the cop way up ahead. "SHIT SHIT SHIT!!!"
I get it back down to 50 and cruise by the two cops sitting on the side of the road and up ahead there's a stop light where I'm first on the line in the right lane, the guy on the bike is behind a honda or something in the left. He yells up to me saying "hey that was close man!" I reply with "yeah it was!" wiping the sweat from my brow and smiling. Then he's obviously looking at my car and sees the "turbo" badge on the back and says "hey, turbo! I didn't see that before!" I just smile back and laugh.
He gets around the honda and pulls up next to me again, I ask "you wanna go again?" and we start it up again where I'm doing 3rd gear pulls and he's trying to keep up. His bike sounded pretty good but was no match for the 300ish hp of my 7M! He tried like 4 or 5 more times and was unsuccessful each time. The last attempt as I was pulling away I hear him say "alright ALRIGHT! You win!" And as we're cruising down at 50 mph again he says "hey check this out!" pulls a huge bag of what I can only assume is pot from his jacket. Hilarious!
Good times!
