Just the other night i was leaveing the bar and some punk lookin dude drove by (i was still in the parking space fixin to start) in one of the honda Civic type cars with the VTEC all on the side..........well any ways he drove by all muggin me.

So i kick on the SRT and exit the lot pulling up behind him at the light to turn left. He drives SLOW as Hell untill we round the corner and i go to pass him.......

He gasses it........ OMG it was the most GOD AWEFULL sound ive ever herd a car exaust make.......... I flor mine ....... Boost kicks in...... I BLOW his doors off.

I was dissappointed - i wanted a better challenge - or should i say i Expected a better challenge with the way he was muggin.

Too bad his car was all Bark (if thats what you call the sound i herd) w/ No Bite.

**Supriseingly enough with all the "ricers" around here i have yet to get as many challenges as i thought i would**

nothing better than beating bmws and mercedes. my friend has a 06 bmw 330i and he thinks he is going to beat me from 100 to 160. i just beat him from 80 to 150 the other day and he was like "it started raining so i slowed down". i geuss he cant stand the fact that the fact that his $50,000 beamer got beat by a $20,000 neon.

what are you guys and gals doing to keep the front down?
i raced my bro in his '04 lexus is300, and i caught him in 3rd, but he thinks that he had me and says he slowed down...whatever....ive got a good reaction time, but the front just bounces around...
anybody know how much front traction bars set you back?

Beat by an 84 Rabbit......

He killed me off the line. Couldn't keep my tires from spinning. He had an awesome launch. By the time I got going he was a couple car lengths ahead. It stayed that way until I saw headlights racing up from behind. They were all too familiar. I slowed down to the speed limit quickly only to see a Sherriff fly by me after the Rabbit. Once he drove around a corner I busted a u turn. Luckily the Rabbit had already turned around and the Sherriff didn't get him. We are planning another run next week when I get my rims/tires back on.... And also give me time to practice my launch. I asked if he wanted to go from a roll, but he wasn't too keen on that idea. Mostly because he knows he wouldn't have a chance.

Only loss was to a Rabbit..... How many people can say that!

Went to the races last night with some buddies... I CALLED YOU TRAVIS YOU DIDN'T PICK UP MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Raced a 1991 Integra with a fully built b18. Kicked his ***, 3 times. I got my launches way better now, I dont really hop as much as I used to... its amazing the pressure you feel when you are lining up... Sherriff rolled by and told us you got 30 seconds to leave or I am towing your ****. So much So-Cal racing fun.
