violated by an m3

im driving on my usual route to work(280 south) when i spot an m3(e36) weaving through some traffic...i've always wanted to see how i faired against one and here was my chance....so i catch up to him while he's caught up in some light traffic...i see an opening in the far right lane and he sees it too and heads for that lane from one of the left lanes...i throw into third and floor it....i pass him with cai screaming and we are in the clear now pass as we pass the traffic....he follows behind and is gaining little ground....couple seconds later i feel a jerk....i look down....fuck i hit the limiter in 3rd(i was like wtf...ive only hit the limiter in 2nd)....so were doing around 110 and i throw into 4......well, u know the story....no more juice....he's all up my ass with nothing i could do....ohh the pain....

i wonder how much the headers would have helped me out in that situation....

Get headers....helps make up for that loss from 3-4.
