Up to class

A couple of weeks back I was on Bradell Road and driving my dad's GS300.
I caught sight of a Saab 9-5 Aero coming up fast trying to pass me on the 2nd lane on my left side mirror...
The 9-5 is turbocharged, but the GS300 has a 3000cc engine so I put the pedal to the metal and I managed to keep ahead of it until I switched lanes and suddenly a very slow car cut in front and I had to brake hard.
Im really thankful for the powerful & responsive brakes :)
After the 9-5 passed me, he(?) had to maintain the 9-5's pride and as soon as we reached the slow weaving section nearing the split junction going to AMK & Thomson, the 9-5 having superior handling and much less weight than the GS300, quickly manuevered clear of the section and I lost sight of it...
I miss the older 9-5 that my father used to own before the GS300... it really handles superbly and its 2.0l engine is really torquey with the turbo...
Just another memory entry of my street encounters :)
