So last night I was coming back from Volleyball (& yes, we won :o) & a car was toying with me (not really). So I stepped on the accelerator & shifted down a gear & I was off. We were going neck & neck at about 70-75 mph. The temp was a cool 8 degrees F so ya know the engine was loving it!! So The car was several car length back & we entered a somewhat blind exit ram which leads on to another highway. The speed was suggested at 50 mph & I just kept my foot firmly planted. I apexed the turn PERFECTLY especially since there was moisture on the turn & being so cold, I didn't know what was there. So I looked down at the speedo for a sec & I was FLYING along at about 45 mph then glanced in my back window at what I thought was a Camaro, the one that was toying with me. Next thing I know, the car behine me did at least 4 - 360 degree turns & slid off into the dirt. I slammed on the brakes to see if they needed help but were able to pull out of the snow/dirt before I arrived. I then stomped on the gas & that wonderfull TCS system kicked in & I was off. 1st, 2nd & I was up to easily 50 mph by that time. Then the car which spun out behind me flew by me & it was to LOVELY ladies in a Lebaron Convertible :o) They wouldn't even look at me in my dodge minivan. It was so amuzing & I was just happy they didn't get hurt :o)
