    So I was on my way home from work tonight and all the way down this two lane highway from the town I work in to the town I live there's this brand new black Prius ahead of me, license plate Z BLK 1, and we're just cruising 55 cuz the cops like to watch the road pretty good. Well He turns off on the same road I take home and he speeds up pretty quick and I was right behind him and he turns again onto the same road that In turn on and is quick into the throttle again, getting up to speed pretty quickly and cruising down this semi windy road at 70. We hit a straight stretch and he starts pulling ahead of me, and I just couldn't let a Prius get away so I stayed with him and was accelerating maybe half throttle, not pushing it a lot and we get going pretty quick and I look down at the speedo and here I am following a Prius at 110 miles an hour. I was like wow didn't know they went that fast. Then just for the heck of it and because I could see the road ahead I punched it and burried the speedo as I passed him :P Not really a race but it was fun none the less.

    Prius' can't speed, it is one of Newton's Laws of Gravity.

    You can't quickly get up to speed in anything that has the same power output as one of these:

    You must have been in 70 in reverse to have a Prius pull on you.

    That's because in the negative time and space you were spiraling in...they are.

    Beating a car that is exponentially slower than yours is fun from time to time...but driving irresponsibly on a road you know has police presence in a car that can't out run a cripple on ice in the corners isn't a good call chief.

    I probably should lock this now...but I'll just let it die.

    the prius obvious devided by zero
    Jenny, The '99 Silvermist GTP. With the mod's that matter.
    I would rather lose by a mile because I built my own car, than lose by an inch, because someone else built it for me. Your car is your story, so don't let someone else write the book.

    He stated that was on the first road, he made 2 turns since then onto a couple different roads. It is really a simple read please take the time to follow along.

    c'mon man..

    he wasn't the ONLY one trolling in this thread. granted the story was trash, but half the posts in this thread (and on this site for that matter) would fall into the category of 'troll'.

    im not saying, im just saying.
