autobahn encounter

I was on my way home and I was behind a v6 camero. as soon as we entered the autobahn the camero jumped on the gas. I figured I would see if I could keep up and I smoked him. I was in third and started to pull away by fourth I was 2car lengths and by fifth you couldn't make out the plates. I know it's a shallow victory because the camero is way heavier then the civic but hell it's not every day the civic is king of the road.

My big brother in my fraternity has a newer v6 camaro. He was behind me on the highway riding my *** and then he gets beside and gets on it. So I get on it too, I took off and left him. But then further down the road there was a brand new corvette beside me. He reved and then took off....I didn't even wanna waste my gas to try. Good kill

plz dont refer to a regular interstate as an autobahn. drivers on the real autobahn respect lanes and pull to the right for faster cars...etc.

edit: that is why the fatality rate for the autobahn is .74/100000 people vs the us interstate's .84/100000 people. i thought that was downright hilarious that a road with no speed limit...a road where they test ruf porsches top speed (~212 mph)...has less car deaths than a us interstate.

pssst... Air Force bases. The US has boys over in Europe who take their cars with them.

And a large reason that the Autobahn is safer is because of the rigorous testing that goes into getting a liscense in Germany. Its a lot harder than in America.
