Default race with porker

going down A130 last night thought i would open the bitch up (3dr cossie 4x4) that is, got to 156mph then backed off all of a sudden wide bodied porker came past me doing about 120mph couldnt beleive my luck so chased after him sat up his ass at 135 mph ,then he realised he wasnt getting away and backed off and pulled over so i stormed passed him then things went tits up car started over heating not good so i drove home and popped bonnet to find header tank cap releasing lots of steam and pressure. WHATS WRONG WITH MY CAR ?

never been in a proper quick cossie, but a good mate of mine had a 911, 964 shape for a while, went in it on a regular basis, and that was VERY quick upto about 150. so to push one out of the way you must be fucking flying
