I Raced a Alfa 147 GTA with my 330I

Hoenir · 08-17-2005, 07:16 AM

Was about 30min ago, I was driving from Nelspruit to Whiteriver (2 towns in South-Africa) when saw the sporting looking Alfa infront of me, I wanted to get a closer look at the thing so I saw it was a GTA.
I knew the thing was fast but i didn't know the specs, he pulled away normaly and i followed, I passed him @ around 80km/h.
Then sudenly I saw him gaining on me so i geared back, he came long side me but he couldnt keep up, I was losing him slowly but was surprised how well he kept up, at around 220km/h he backed up.

When I got home I looked up the specs of the Alfa:
3.2 V6, 184kw, 300nm torque

I've also raced a Golf GTI & Pegoe 206 GTI but no contest realy

Im not realy a racer but I like to express BMW Power when some1 flies past me...

Yesterday I was standing at the trafic light behind a Golf V GTI and it was pretty fast going uphill(almost equal), but beyond 60/70mph I ate him, there was the bend, he did brake, I didn't(95mph thru the bend, LOL)

He just flashed his light into oblivion

Golf GTI 200BHP 280Nm fwd
