'01 CLS VS SRT-10 Truck!
A funny thing happened to me on the way to the Acura dealer last Monday... I'm at a light on a three lane expressway and this dude pulls up next to me in a black Dodge pickup. I had no idea it was an SRT-10 (VIPER ENGINE) All I want to do was get over to the right at the next exit. So I took off fast and lowand behold this truck took of right with me. Up to 45 mph it was dead even (but I'm freaking a little thinking what the hell is that guy driving!!!???) so I really punched it to see if he was serious (still no idea he had a V-10) I look over after looking down at my spedo around 75 and he's still right there - pulling hard to around 85 he had just a nose ahead of me. At about 100 ( I was looking for cops at this point) I pulled even with him and then just shut it down. I guess he had to go left because he got behind me and was looking at my rear end ( I assume to figure out what kind of "rice burner" I was driving). When he pulled into the left hand turn lane I finally got to see the badging on his tail gate. Honeslty, I felt lucky, like the guy didn't know what he was doing because he was jerking the gears (non-quad cab, so I think it was a 6 sp). In the end I think we both had a new found respect for the others vehicle’s capabilities. Can't call it a kill, but it was a damn good run...

i'm not too sure about that. i got my ass handed to me by one. by 3 or 9 car lengths. of course i guess it doesn't help that he launched about 3 of those car lengths on me.
