Default first race

first race was against a trans am ws-6, it was a second gear rolling start, spanked it easy. i shouldnt of raced since my car only had like maybe 500 miles on it, but i couldnt resist. this car is fun, cant wait for some mods, and more spankings.

You'll surprise alot of people with this little guy. But keep it safe, and in all honesty the track is far better for racing. Racing from a roll just isn't the same, nor is it a true race. But in the heat of the moment I can understand the rush of adrenaline kicking in and the lack of mentality to create a proper race at that given point in time ceased to exist .

Congrats on the car, good luck with it, and Mod Happily

sounds a little fishy... like the guy didn't see it coming or wasn't trying... WS6's usually put down some nice numbers...

The only time I hung with a WS6 when my car was stock was against my co-worker's car who was clueless about cars and said he thought "something was wrong" with it, but didn't know what.

I asked him to pop the hood to check it out, the air-filter was NASTY looking and one of the plug wires was just flapping around inside the car with the tip of the spark plug in it. Somehow the spark plug had broken in two. I told him to get the spark plug replaced and get a new air-filter, but I never got a chance to run him again after he did. He did say his car ran much better after that.
