Even more so with a mtn bike hanging on the hitch rack at the back. After dark and driving at 60k along a residential blvd (one lane in each direction), and some guy is tail gating me.
Came to a red light-- I stop before the cross walk and a newish Accura 3L. pulls to the inside lane. This is actually a parking lane, but no cars parked ahead. He was 3/4 of a car length ahead and as we were waiting for the green I lifted the toggle and opened the cut out.
With the green I floored it and the 4eat gave me a hell of a launch, with about that much noise as well.
Didn't stand a chance, so I slowed back to 60k so he could catch up because the road takes a fairly good right hander as it declines down the hill. The turn also has some weird camber changes, but I'd practiced going through there and the guy was lost again.
At the bottom of the hill the light was red and he pulled to the inside lane, looked me and the car over and made a friendly show of applauding with his hands.
There was no need to repeat the program.
