So I'm driving home from work yesterday and had just exited the toll road and made my way up Santiago Cayon....I road I love to drive...and as I'm sitting at a light for the exit from the 241, I look in the side view an the black E63 AMG I see from time to time back on this canyon road is rolling up alongside. The car carries vanity plates that read SICKAMG, but when I've seen it in the past, the guy has no interest in racing...just cruises along prolly listening to elevator music...
On this stretch of Santiago form the light, it goes straight at a slight incline in two lanes for about a 1/4 mile before narrowing into a single lane and cresting the hill down to Irvine Lake so folks are always jockeying for the first spot before the road narrows...I'm hoping AMG boy wants to tangle...
This is also a popluar spot for Po-Po to sit and fish, but I dont' see them up ahead at their usual perch....so I'm ready in case he decides to go for first...it's mine...
Light turns green as we both roll into it and he seems to be gauging my interest in a street fight as much as I am his....we're door to door and accelerating at a slightly agressive pace...then I here that 500+ HP 6.3 open up (I think it's actually a 6.2 in spite of its 6.3 badges). I answer him with my mean buzzin half dozen and we're both all in now....
My tires broke loose, but even as I spin....I'm staying door to door with him. I finally hook and it's all over now....my torque vs. his and I know I've got gobs more.....I just walk away from him.
I was up 3-4 lengths and still wlaking away when he finally gave up hoping for a top end advantage to show up, so I stopped the beating and started scrubbing speed, and he backed way off returning to his normal docile driving habits...
That AMG is sick alright.....probably about to puke it's guts out....
