A beatup Honda Civic Punk tried to raise with me last night,
 
He didn't know I was just trying to pass his toxic smoke from his
exhaust pipe. He ran out of his breath, he can't even catch up
with my 10% power I used. So funny........ The SUV flashed the
light on me, like saying "Hey guys, you're not supposed to
raise" I said "I'm not idiot (by slowing down to let the funky
Civic pass me). Then at the traffic light he did expel his
shitty smoke again. He still couldn't catch up with my E230
going up the hill.

This jerk doesn't know he could be killed if he jumped in front
of me, because my car is 4000-lbs, his is 2600-lbs. Next time if
you want to raise with me, you need to tune up your car first Ok?
Check out "Optimum delivery Systems".

How much did he raise you? $100? Were you playing Texas hold 'em?

Funny thing is that smoke spewing Civic will definitely outlst that 4000
lbs piece of soon to be scrap metal.

Just a typical Mercedes owner trying to justify their over-engineerd
over-priced car. The worn out old Honda probably has about the same resale
as the Mercedes. Talk about depreciation, Mercedes are really good at
that.

I doubt he is a Mercedes owner. He said he drove an E230 then claimed
it was a typo and changed it to an E320. Sounds more like poor
Googling before trolling.

Plus thinking an E series is "fast" for raising? At least the OP's post
made me laugh. Now if he had an Mercedes AMG, I "might" be impressed at
its speed but not its price tag.

In fact, the OP may be from some third-world hell hole where they can't even

I do happen to know a little something about science. Being an
engineer it is kind of my thing. Even if I knew very little about
science I could tell you that 4,000 pounds never equals 15,000 pounds,
and it also will never equal 600 pounds. To move as light as a 600
pound vehicle would be to move like a motorcycle. Trust me, your car
doesn't move like a motorcycle.

I get a kick out of seeing drivers like you think that their car is so
great and they are so skilled in driving. I enjoy going to the track
with my relatively modest car and watching people in much more
expensive and faster cars overdrive their cars and wind up with
horrible times. I'm sure they feel stupid when they have lap times
about 5 seconds slower than me when I have a horepower to weight ratio
about 50% worse, and a capable driver in their car would better my
time by at least five seconds.

I think it all comes from sudden wealth or something. Perhaps when
going from driving a piece of crap to something with a little
performance you honestly believe that it can outperform everything,
and that your superhuman driving skill will combine with the supercar
to yield the ultimate package. Sorry, but you are not any better than
the honda driver who has something to prove. Actually in my opinion
you are worse. He only wanted to prove to YOU that he was fast. You
insist on bothering the entire mercedes community with how fast you
think you are, and apparently how well you would crush other cars that
got in your way. That's really something to be proud of-injuring
others with your reckless driving.

If you were trying to express impulse when you said 15,000 pounds
impact, you got the units all wrong. It actually gets a little tricky
since the unit involes both pounds force and pounds mass. It's easier
to work in metric units, where implulse is simply expressed in newton
seconds. If you do a little math you'll see that it's the same as kg m/
s, or mass times speed.

To everyone else, have a good day.

pseudo-oppositional trash.

Apparently, no one of any recognizable gender wants anything to do
with you. Hence this endless, weak-ass, ridiculous, basement-
sockazoid game. Trust me, this is not the way to ameliorate that
situation.

I do happen to know a little something about science. Being an
engineer it is kind of my thing. Even if I knew very little about
science I could tell you that 4,000 pounds never equals 15,000 pounds,
and it also will never equal 600 pounds. To move as light as a 600
pound vehicle would be to move like a motorcycle. Trust me, your car
doesn't move like a motorcycle.

I get a kick out of seeing drivers like you think that their car is so
great and they are so skilled in driving. I enjoy going to the track
with my relatively modest car and watching people in much more
expensive and faster cars overdrive their cars and wind up with
horrible times. I'm sure they feel stupid when they have lap times
about 5 seconds slower than me when I have a horepower to weight ratio
about 50% worse, and a capable driver in their car would better my
time by at least five seconds.

I think it all comes from sudden wealth or something. Perhaps when
going from driving a piece of crap to something with a little
performance you honestly believe that it can outperform everything,
and that your superhuman driving skill will combine with the supercar
to yield the ultimate package. Sorry, but you are not any better than
the honda driver who has something to prove. Actually in my opinion
you are worse. He only wanted to prove to YOU that he was fast. You
insist on bothering the entire mercedes community with how fast you
think you are, and apparently how well you would crush other cars that
got in your way. That's really something to be proud of-injuring
others with your reckless driving.

If you were trying to express impulse when you said 15,000 pounds
impact, you got the units all wrong. It actually gets a little tricky
since the unit involes both pounds force and pounds mass. It's easier
to work in metric units, where implulse is simply expressed in newton
seconds. If you do a little math you'll see that it's the same as kg m/
s, or mass times speed.

To everyone else, have a good day.

Assuming that everyone posting to newsgroups of Japanese and German car
manufacturers can write perfect English seems like (typically
"American") ignorance to me.

(Learning to format your posts properly on the Usenet is also helpful,
fwiw.)
