    RS2 matches Jag XF R

    Not my usual thing, but couldn't resist.
    We've all got one, bit of dual carriageway, off the roundabout quater mile blast to next roundabout.
    I'd followed JagXF for 3 or 4 miles, so had time to suss it was one of the quick ones, R badge on the O/S
    Going onto roundabout got up close to him, he took the bait and off we went.
    We were even all the way, I was pretty chuffed, 20 year old against a new one.
    Just hope he wasn't at half throttle
    I reckon mines got about 360, Jags got 5 litre supercharged V8.

    My car was full of camping gear for the drag race having just spent a week in Scotland

    Heres some pics up on Glen Coe and Pass of the cattle west coast.

              Yeah I've been over Glen coe in sun one day and rain with low cloud the next.
              It's chalk and cheese, eerie is a good description in poor weather.

              DJ Roy good to know he wasn't at half throttle

              Espen, speed range, this is a guess as i don't look at the clocks when I'm in sniffing distance of a rusty sherrif's badge, but 25 mph upto 85-90 mph.

              Thanks for the comments on car and scenery guy's.

              If you've never been up the west coast, put it on the to do list.
              10 15 years ago the roads were in very good condition, but I have to say this year there was a notable difference in pot holes and top surface coming away from next layer

              Scottish councils feeling the pinch to may be.
