Welcome back to Colorado!!!

Well, I have finally found the time to get back on Fnsweet! Move is done and I'm back home in CO!!
Had a really nice welcome the other day. Passsed a new GT500 just driving on SB I-25 just north of E470. Merged onto E470 was passing at truck and I looked in the mirror and what do I see...the GT500 about 1/8 mile behind me, and really flyin. Came flying up on my ass. I figured WHY NOT!! I moved over so he could have his own lane. Downshifted into third and put my foot in it. Started at about 65mph with about one car length. Backed off just as we got onto E470. I won't say the speed attained b4 backing off but...Pulled away the whole time. I honestly thought the guy would pass me. Absoutely dusted the guy!! I had about 8-9 lengths when we finished. I love Colorado!!

Colorado??

No wonder I haven't seen you around!!



OK....I actually knew you were moving, but didn't know when it was all going to happen. Glad you're happy to be home and if you get lonesome for the corn and soybean fields you can always come back to visit. I hear that you're going to be in Topeka next weekend.....sure wish I could join up with you guys down there!

You sure he was racing you 8 - 9 lengths is a lot. I drove one and they are fast. They have 500hp, did you work yours?
