Break ins are overrated and could do the opposite of what you want...do some research. You should have spanked him right then and there.

Challenger is probably over 1000lbs heavier than you. You should be able to toast him even with a C2. C2S would just demolish him.

Even with a C2? Hehe, Been there, you'll be surprised how close the C2 vs C2S are in a street race.

This is funny and tend to take the same view but unfortunately the length these aholes will go to provoke is quite disturbing. Typically, I will make the point and slap them down then ignore them.

Actually, I did the Porsche World Road Show and got to test the C2 and C2S and I found a pretty big difference with the C2S.

While I wouldn't have wasted the fuel and would have ignored the Challenger, I would agree with your thoughts on break-in.
