SiR vs Beetle S

Well, Im pretty glad im writing this story, because I usually get beaten by other cars when I race. Its not like my car is slow or anything, its an SiR, not the fastest though but kinda fast. I usually race against cars that I know im going to get beaten, or very even cars, just like the past mini S race.

I was heading home at night, on a two lane highway, its mexico so dont imagine those nice looking 4 lane highways perfectly paved, its just a 2 lane long straight road. Im in the left lane cruising at exactly 100 kph when this car tails me. I notice his lights and theyre round as hell. Mmmm...beetle? So I stay there just cruising at 100 k. After 10 seconds on my tail this guy gets tired, nails it and goes on to the right lane to pass me. As soon as he moves, I downshit, revmatch, thirdgear. Neck and neck, slowly pulling. Im so excited, so much adrenaline. We are the only cars on the road and I know he is giving his beetle gas. Third finishes at 8k and im pulling half a car on him. 4rth gear, still racing. 4th gear ends. Thats 180 kph, pretty fast, very dangerous, shit into 5th still full throttle and I call quits cause I wanna have a family when Im older, lol. I quit at 195 kph, the most ive hit in my car. I havent tried top speed cause I have to go to a nice highway. By this time I pulled 3 cars on the silver beetle or a little more. So exciting. I put my signal to turn, and he turns into my neiborhood!! He lives were I live, 2 blocks away, he was an early 30s man. When we were side by side after the race doing less than 10 kph, this guy just looks at me and makes an expression of "You little f**ing youngster, you beat me" I was so excited. Dont know what year the beetle was, dont know if it was the 180 hp or the 150 hp, I guess it was the 150 hp, but it was the sport, I saw the bagde.

Hell yeah!
