well last summer after leaving work in mooresville indiana i stopped at the second light in front of menards and this black 9000 pulls up aside me i didnt notice at first untill he threw it in neutral while rolling and was revving to get my attention he got it! so we head up to the next light is gestured for him to pull into the dollar general parking lot we checked out one anothers 9000 and agreed to a match on the road i told him it was very unhealthy to throw automatics in neutral when rolling so we left the dollarstore lot and headed back to the light there we were i heard him shift into neutral again (obvious clunk) and start revving i gently set my auto to 1st and started building pressure light turned green and i pulled away hard and continued to the next stop a liquor store roughly 1/2 mile down the road shortly after he pulls in with (the look ) on his face im standing there asking him why his 9000 which was a 1991 2.3l turbo
couldent keep up with a 89 9000 as i was awaiting a reply his car gave one for him all over my
shoe

being the gentleman i am i used my tripple a card and had him towed home
