HAHAHAAAAAAA HAAAA HAAAAA!!!!
Oh dear, oh dear oh dear. This was the best race in the world ive ever had, ever!
I was driving home from Guildford and noticed a black example of this supercar exotica. As the lights went red, my heart began beating (well faster than normal). I looked over and this lovely example was lower than my wing mirrors and was a left-hooker. The guy driving was wearing a baseball cap (!) and his wife looked very pleased to be in such a lovely car. Anyway, the lights changed and off i went (like a Nova driver with a h@rd-on), just to see if hed toast too. Needless to see he didnt......BUT he did weld himself to my rear bumper promptly after that! I think hes known that ive seen him around quite a bit (he lives near to me) and whenever ive seen him/it ive waved or flashed (my lights
)Anyway, he follows me and all i can hear is the amazingly growly exhaustx2(s) note. It was sooooo low to the ground and looked fantastic.
He followed me over the bridge (railway near station) onto the Hogsback heading West and after the 50 mph limit is my turning for the A3 south. I signalled and low and behold, he followed!!! it wasnt very busy so i was really anticipating that hed give it a blast and a half. We reached the dual carriage, and that he just did, but not just a half 10X my blasts worth and zoooomed past (probably not even half throttle!).
So i thought (with my bro sitting next to me) "Why not!!?" and slotted into fourth and gave chase. (saxosportsclub verion: Through 4th-5th changes i was keeping up easy and got past at 130 and left him by about 3 car lengths!), Cliosport version: I floored the throttle with all my might and then discovered that it wouldnt go through the bulk head, he was staying in front of me, playing with me like a puppet on a string. I was literally flat out and my car could not go any faster. He overtaking skills were a bit strange tho, every time id come upto him, hed blast away overtaking cars and then slicing their noses off, it looked a bit dodgy!
We finally caught up with a car that was in the fast lane overtaking another car with a small gap. I thought to myself, oh good, ill be able to watch him accelerate from 70, but no, this Lambo driver decided to go for the chicane approach and undertook the overtaking car and over took the slower car! He pondered at first and then stamped the throttle through the gap whilst steering! the car looked so flat and aggressive and took the fast chicane at what must have been 120+ mph, a black puff of smoke is what signalled his throttle status.
OH my word, now that is a seriously fast car. The overtaking car moves out the way with the driver smiling!? (that wouldnt have happened if a sorted-orion had undertaken the same maneouver!) I past him and tried to catch the Lambo - try as i may, but i could not even see him in the horizon! i was well and trully TOAST, not just toast, but burnt embers that have been burned about 50,000 times in a large furnice used for smelting iron.
My luck changed and finally caught up, he was held up further up the road by some slow cars in the overtaking lane. Once they moved, off he went and i finally managed to sit behind him around the devils punch bowl. He overtook another car around that, and into hindhead we went. He was in the left lane at the traffic lights, and i overtook him and cut in further down the cue. (hehe toasted!!!) I noticed he also had his left indicator on, as was mine and we negotiated the Hindhead road! I did a big accelerate into the national speed limit, but it sure wasnt enough! my nimble little clio was no match. This huge low strung beast was devouring my rear view mirror like the Atlantic to the Titanic. He was half on my side of the road and half on the other! and off he went! overtaking me (leaving about 1 inch between us!!?) and cut in front (unfortunately, there were a few cars about, so it was a bit dodgy), I had moved over to make it a bit easier for him as the Lambo is a wide one on smallish roads.
I gave the racers code of a double flash when he pulled back in, and he complemented it with a retort of indicator left indicator right. "GOOD LAD!!" i thought.
He trully made my day and ive just made up my mind what im buying when i win the lottery next week!!!!
What a ride!!!!
(sorry for the essay folks, but this really was a toast in a life time, pity i didnt have my digi cam with me)
