Tried To Kill a Poser

I was hauling as through traffic and having fun messing around when I spotted a potential race. A black SL600 was sitting at the light, sitting about 2 inches higher than stock :wtf: with a cheesy non-MB V12 badge on the trunk and SLK55 exhaust tips. I know a stock SL600 would still take me off the line in a perfect race, but I figured I'd surprise the guy when I got the chance.

Light turned green and he ran WOT to the next light, about 1/5 of a mile away and got into the left turn lane. What the hell, it sounds like a 6 banger :dunno: I get in behind him and wait. Light turns green and he stomps it going into the turn, brakes, and hits WOT again. I was right behind him, ESP off, holding 1st and jammed the gas too. I saw him peer into his sideview mirror when I chirped it and I continued to walk within inches of his rear bumper in a few seconds. He let off and started to cruise.

He moved over to give me room and I stayed behind him, holding 2nd and nailed it again just to make noise. He was now staring at me in his rearview, but made no motion to move. Holding 2nd I pulled up, eased off, nailed it again and bounced it off the rev limiter a few counts as I was passing him. Still, no play. I gave up and went on my way.

So as it sounds like, I just came across a 300SL rebadged as an SL600 (it had the old style taillights as well). I need to start keeping the camera in the center console :wall:

LOL, why do they even try to race? :rofl:
HHAHAHAHA, funny story, a friend of my dad's in Calgary did that to his 300SL. Soooo, my dad and I wanted to get back at him for posing and waited til a friday lunch at his usual restaurant where he'd eat/drink for 2 hours at least

Went there with the following supplies

Dental floss
Torch cigar lighter in case adhesive needed to be warmed up
roll of 3M double sided tape
ebay V12 badge I modified

Don't have ACTUAL pictures but this was the result:
