Silver CL-S on the 5S this evening.
Was driving with a friend tonight back from Valencia to Glendale in his 6spd 540.
Some dipshit in a Silver CL-S kep trying to bait him into racing, and wouldnt get the clue of not interested. My friend is not some immature street racer, and certainly not stupid enough to bomb around on post downpour roads in the dark.
Now, this is not a flame starting thread, I love the CL-S (the 6spds) and hell I own a 1st gen, so im in the family.
But unless you are supercharged or running nitrous, do you really think you stand a chance against a manual 540??? That shit would have left you in the dust.
My point is:
1) keep racing on a sanctioned track, not a busy highway post rain.
2) if you are going to race (legally) find an evenly matched car.
