Guess what i played w/ today??

As im taking the corner near transworld, i see a red f355 spider coming towards me. He proceeds to go straight and i get on it. Im right on him and the light ahead turns red. I downshift to 2nd and it turns green and he floors it. I switch to the right lane because some volvo in front of me was making a left turn. Into 4th and when i glance down i was doing about 65 70 in a 35 mhp zone. Im right on him when he hits the brakes and pulls over to let me go. I slow down rev up and take off. Not really a kill but it was fun. I knew my car was fast but i never thought id keep up with a ferrari. Any1 know what a vert 355 runs?? My friend told me he lives in New Providence and has a red mustang.

They run anywhere from 13.0 to 13.5. Nothing too crazy, but fun to kill a Ferrari nonetheless
