Always leave the option open to say "I wasn't really trying..."
Often a good strategy. I have an older sports car that many people assume is super fast, but really isn't (especially off the line... It is a fast highway cruiser).

My sister has an '85 Corvette that is slower in every respect that her 300C and slower in most respects than her F150. Ha!
