Head to head diesel race

So at 5 AM this morning I'm sitting at a red light and this new CTD pulls up next to me and there was no one around. I'm thinking, I'm going to take this guy because the double lanes merge 500 ft ahead. The light turns green, I lay into it and hear the turbo screaming. By the time I hit 3rd gear I think the other guy figures out we're racing and all I see is black smoke and taillights. So if you're the guy with the nice black 4x4 that came through Hope this morning, I'm gunning for you. Oh yeah, I was the idiot in the silver Beetle TDI that thought I was going to do something.
