Genuine lol from that
For me it has to be when I was completely oliterated by a Fiat Brava
Around basildon, it looked like a typical chav mobile, was in the saab and I had 4 passengers - so I was weighed down anyway, but I gave chase anyway when I got to next to him a rather tasty young lady looked at me, smiled and waved and made mince meat of me.
Oh how my friends laughed

ive never really done it. Ive beat a 5series in a traffic light GP while in my ST..... but then he wasnt racing
i seen two numptys in mercs doing what you see on Youtube... M11 weaving through traffic at 100mph plus (im doing 70 and they fly past). They both then parked up on hardsholder and about 10minutes later they came past me again
The only noteworthy time I remember is when an M5 tried it on. He had the upperhand in a straight line and I was practically just waiting for him to overtake me... But then luckily for me a few familiar bends in the road arrived due his dithering around which I barely slowed down for. After the bends were complete I looked back and he was the size of an ant
Quite why it happened though I dunno. If I had an M5 I wouldn't go around tail gating cheap plastic sports cars to make them go faster.

Coming home one evening down a dual carriageway, I saw an Evo 8 in the distance. Now, I knew it would pwn me but I was intrested to see how much.
He was pootling along in the inside lane so I overtook at a fair pace (not completely pedal to the metal) and carried on, up the road to a set of traffic lights. He pulled up a few seconds later beside me and I looked over his car, gave him a smile and a nod.
Lights went green, we both set off normally and he boots it. I floor it and just sit there wheelspinning, he gains some distance so I knock it into second and floor it. All through second, I'm keeping with him so to the end of the road, around a roundabout and up another dual carriagway leading to the motorway.
There's an absolutely awesome sweeping bend leading upto the dual carriagway and I tell you what... 4WD is awesome! He must have kept his foot planted because he left me for dead (and I was on the limit of grip - well, what grip budget tyres can give).
Get onto the straight and he's gone. I finally see him in sight down the road and as he slows for the roundabout, I come up behind and flash my lights. He flashes his hazards and I follow him across the roundabout in 2nd gear, ready for him to boot it.
He doesn't, so I pull out and he sticks his thumb out of the window I pull beside him, smile and nod again and plant my foot.
I'll always remember that, simply because the guy was a good sport. Wish there were more people like him on the road.

TVR Tamora
I didn't try to race him, I just egged him on at the lights, creeped forwards, looked over...
Then wound my window down and pulled off the throttle just to listen to him boot it
TVRs suck and now look ugly too, but the sound they make... WOW

My only really memorable one, which was intended anyway was on a dual carriageway out of swindon to join the M4.
I see a 355F1 someway in the distance pootling along in the outside lane, not overtaking anyone. I was bored and had a long run up so came up behind him a fair bit faster than he was (not speeding though ofcourse!) to attempt to make him move over. Wound my windows down, couple seconds later he notices is me and poof, hes pretty gone! The noise that thing made, tingly!

Many many moons ago I had an Escort RS2000, i came out of a round about onto a duel carriageway with a Ferrari 308 behind me and we both floored it.
About 3 miles along the duel carriageway there was another round about and before i was 3/4 of the way to this second one the 308 was coming back the other way waving to me
, like i said a long time ago, probably 20+ years ago.

Is that worse then been left for dead at the lights by a 16 year old on a moped?
.Was driving last night and was at the traffic lights when this young lad driving a Merc CL50 (I think).Lights went green I moved off totally killed him....until maybe 10 metres later he put his foot down and killed me. At least I beat him for a bit
Another one was embarassing, was a couple months ago in Brighton turning from Coldean Lane into Lewes Road(people from Brighton should know), there was this RAC Van next to me,he revved a bit like he was asking for a race,I duly obliged.Lights turned green was pwning him round the corner,got till the straight dunno how but he zoomed straight past me. My friends laughed hard,so did I!
I'm driving a Civic 1.5i

Can only think of two mullerings really.
A standard looking 1.1 Saxo was sitting on my arse.......annoying me. I entered the dual carriageway and floored it expecting him to disappear in my rear view.
He pulled around me, level with me and then blasted off into the distance. (16v conversion with some added extra's).
Another one was an brand new MCS (latest mk), which left me for dead and upset me haha.

There's a roundabout which leads onto a dual carrage way and a massive right sweep up a sweet hill (my favourite "ground", private road).
Was behind an Aston martin vantage at the roundabout, thought i'd see if he goes for it- to which he did. Pulled some in 2nd but I wasn't too far behind then he put it in to 3rd and flew off up the hill. I must be been pushing nearly 3 figures so no idea what he was doing.
Sounded so nice, I need to own something that sounds that good.

I used to suck at launching the 420, it would either bog down or I'd sit there spinning.
One occasion that comes to mind is when I pulled upto the lights, white Fiesta 1.3 in the lane next to me. Some girl in the driving seat, wearing big hoop earings and listening to some happening dance tunez on her wikkud stereo!
I think to myself, "aha, I'm going to totally omgzpwnz her" and I prepare, bite point at the ready.
Lights go green and I bog down... she'd also been getting ready to launch because she takes off. I regain momentum, and then once on boost, rip past her thinking "I am so leet"
I remember driving my parents fiesta and getting whopped by a 205GTI. I nailed my foot to the floor to try and put some distance between us but he just gunned it and flew past. So incapable of any real speed was the fiesta he actually thought I had backed off and let him past....
