Just had to pop out to the bank (some 5 miles away)....across country essentially, so it's a great road for blatting along.
On my way back, i gets alongside this very stock looking Mk5 Esc*rt RS2000 16v thing at the last roundabout of the town...and I see him off - safely in front of him at my exit....
I look behind - the guy's going my way .... and he's up for a tussle (oh joy!).
Plenty of slow cars to keep me focussed on the cross-country jaunt, but he couldn't really *bother* me, and I was even able to respect my brakes a fair bit.
He had a slight probelem, in that we came to the major junction at the end of the said 'blatting' road, at the main 'A' road.......I stopped just fine, be he couldn't!
He swerved to miss me and only *just* managed to pull up level - otherwise he'd have been T-boned on the main road!........i wound my window down and the STINK was unreal......then i saw the plooms of blue smoke coming from under his wheel arches and bonnet....
.....I pulled off killing myself laffing......he went the other way.
The joys of kicking ass......26mpg again....oh well
