Sadly got owned today.

The wife and I were on our way to dinner in my 325i when this turboed eclipse comes up on me fast and gets in front of me. No big deal, I see an opening in the right lane and make my move to pass him. So I step on the pedal and my wonderful slush box downshifts. I get about 5-6 car lengths on him before I notice him starting to catch up to me. Well I'm already at wot so I just keep it down and I see him walk on by me . We are prolly at about 105 mph at this time and he just gets back in front of me. We both take the next exit and part ways. Needless to say I hate losing, but, I can't be too mad cause 1) he's got a turbo, 2) he's got more hp (210) and trq (214) and 3) he's got 5 speed. oh well, it was still fun. kinda.
