Default Killed a Sebring

My friends and I were coming back from playing a nice round of Mini-golf. Two of them were in a Sebring Convertible. They were following me. As we get closer to his house, he gets ahead of me and we play a little tag. Eventually, the road clears up, and I start to get next to him. We are at about 40 at this point. We both nail it as I come around him. I am up to 75 before I know it, and about 3 car lengths ahead. I merge in front of him and slow down, turning right in to his sub-division.

Another day, another kill....
Nobody suspects the 3800.

Not bad, but lets see some real competition. I know the convertible sebrings are just slow, and you really need a v6 in the coupes to do good. Nice job though, show that mopar punk what he'* missing.

Well, I wasn't gonna back out of it. Sure it is slow. It only has a 2.5 V6. But I wasn't gonna let him get away.
