I was behind an Audi Wagon with MTM on the back - nothing else. Looks like
a modifed A6.
Still on the highway, he caught me unawares and jumped me before I hit it.
He backed off on a corner?!?! at 65.
I wound up following him towards my work unexpectedly.
There is a section that goes from a light, makes a turn, then goes striaght
(albiet up a hill) for 1/4 mile. In town, no lights until the top of the
hill.
I kept the RPM's at 4K going around the turn in second, and I saw him hit
it. I matted the gas, and saw him slowly walk me - not what I expected from
what apeared to be a tuner car. Given enough road, he would have gained
significantly, but we only topped second and hit 5K in Third.
After a look around the Web, it apears to be this:

Ouch!
But, since it comes with up to 450BHP, I really doubt the one I ran was
improved very much!
