Thumbs up 2k TL VS. SLK 230 SUPERCHARGED

Went to the street races tonight in Los Angeles. I beat all the cars that I raced including a 97 Eclipse GS-Turbo, 00 GTI 1.8 TURBO, Integra GSR, and a 01 V6 Accord sedan. I then had the opportunity to race a Supercharged 02 SILVER SLK 2.3 Brabus (With the lights on the side mirrors @#!#!@!!!!) It was lowered on 18" Brabus rims, exhaust, and a Brabus Tag(IT COULD HAVE BEEN A FAKE ONE WITH JUST A TAG). Well anyways, it was pretty much a dead even race. One thing i did notice is that I pulled on him in 2nd gear(He was shifting for 3rd as well as 4th about 2 seconds before me). In the end I beat him twice by half a car. =)

I have a feeling you're not going to like some of the replies to this one. Be prepared to defend yourself, there a few people that love these posts...

Me? I say: good kills, congrats!

Good kills man! The SLK 230 is only 190HP so it's believable!

Cool

SLK230 Kompressor is NOT as fast as it looks and/or many ppl thought it is. Automatic/Manual(both has same 0-60 time) SLK230 does 0-60 in around 7.5 sec. I doubt the exhaust alone would drop .5 sec.... besides, if that driver has 17" or even 18" Brabus on it, that would slow it down...

Nice kill, BTW...

The 230 Kompressors are not too quick at all. It's mostly show.
