My co-worker challenged me....

...to a race. Actually she reports to me and she drives a new C320 and she swears she can take me.

Shall I race her? I'm pretty sure I can win because I've beat one before but what if I lose this (for whatever reason), I wouldn't be able to live this one down because I see her everyday and like I said, I have to give her direction and review her work, etc. like any other boss and I think that might be some sort of conflict no?

Plus she is new, about 6 months on the job.

Perhaps we'll just go to the track.....comments?

Sierra Wireless.

I think I'm going to do it, next time we go out to lunch. Thanks for all the advice everyone. That's what I thought but wanted to make sure.

I'll let you know....

huh?

it's funny how there's always a counterpost like this without any #'s.

a clp could probably take the c320.

You should beat her unless you get a bad launch. If the C320 has the exact same engine as the E320, the I will advise you that don't sleep on them, they are not as slow as some people think. In any case, if you race her, stop under 120mph after that she will walk you down...damn German cars!
