Saabs have always been under-rated as a performance saloon (sedan to you colonials) but i as a dual Saab (in other words i have 2 saabs, not 2 personalities) owner object to the thought that you can “NOT” race someone who is obviously a couple of sandwiches short of a picnic and is wanting to push their luck. personally he would have been toast long before, and then i would have rubbed it in.

maybe thats what you get for having a 55MPH speed limit.

saying that, wouldnt mind having the 2.8L option over here, biggest we get is 2.3 which still dishes out 250BHP

p.s. wouldnt have beaten an Evo or a scoobie

Maybe you shouldn’t be racing on public roads…. and you should especially not race people with cars like his as they tend not to have much common sense in these types of situations. Its a good thing there was traffic or his fake flames might have turned into real ones…

“But one question: If you were always in front, how did you know the Verona had no badge on the back?”

Saw the rear when I took my exit.

“I can only assume that he had an appointment to keep at the local tuning shop for an exhaust install.” – That or some new stickers.

But one question: If you were always in front, how did you know the Verona had no badge on the back?

Maybe if SAAB got in to some Auto Racing they may get more attention, hoke-up with establish race team and fund them, remember, Race on Sunday, Sale on Monday… I’m just saying…

Don’t laugh too hard at the kid in the Verona. He may never catch the Saab in terms of speed, but give it a few years and he’ll probably be pretty close in resale.
