About the Author

I'm the co-founder and CEO of E29 Incorporated, a service oriented software shop near Washington DC. While this is my official blog, my thoughts and opinions expressed here do not reflect those of my company, yada yada.

This is why you leave me alone on the freeway

691

And no, the table isn’t to show that it took the car 21 minutes to get to 76 :P A kid in a Lancer Evo III was tailgating me down 28 and decided to buzz my passenger side and cut me off. Then the hilarity in red happened. +22mph in 3 seconds in 4th gear, mid range.

I will say though, the kid got a head of me in the end, but only because he wimped out and boxed me in behind a truck, then took off. And FYI, the Engine Speed parameter is busted, which is starting to show me why the transmission “bumps” shifting from 2nd into 3rd. I think it’s time to do some tweaking.

And also, man I’m really tired of pulling runs on my friggin commute, I yearn for a racetrack, or a strip to get some accurate non-dyno testing. This is pretty much the only time in months I’ve gotten heavy on the gas, seeing as how that same gas is costing me $3.49 a gallon :(
