That kind of reminds me of my poor choice in racing on the street not so long ago...
I was racing some old Nova with my 03 cobra (both 140mph trap cars), beat him the first time. We went back the second time for a rematch, I hit a dip in the road on the very top end, went sideways a bunch of different directions, finally straightened it out and by then i had lost the race. The crazy bastard wanted me to run a 3rd time for the tie breaker. That's the last time I raced on the street, no sense in chancing that any more.
