Raced a blown PT Cruiser

Well, not exactly a true race but we were driving side by side about 4 blocks from a merge into my lane. He dropped the hammer to get in front and I dropped the hammer and said see-ya. It was kind of funny to see a pimped out PT Cruiser complete with fart pipe, Supercharged and Blown graphics and chrome 18's being driven by a 50ish guy and his wife.
