Default S2k vs GSR(i think he said) Civic

So this was years ago but never really paid attention to this section before.

I was cruising home from work top down one day when a little Civic pulled up beside me and kept revving his Redic loud exhaust. I tried my best to ignore him but he kept trying. Finally he rolls down the window and says hey man, Wanna run? I got a GSR(or something like that) I said man I am just stock with an exhaust I don't want you to rape me... He keeps begging so finally give in. We roll 2nd gear me at about 5k rpm. I nail and leave him in the dust... I slow down give him a thumbs up and yell I wanna go again I wasn't ready.... So we roll again with the same result. Now I am close to my home and he is still on my ass. I don't want to show him where I live just incase he had other intentions like stealing seats or whatever. So I pass my house and head towards the curvy roads that I love OHHH SO much(I usually hit these at least 5 times a week) I down shift and fly through the corners and he tried to keep up. I looked up in my rearview and all I see is Dust and grass going everywhere. I hit the brakes and flip a Uturn. I pull up and him and his buddy are outside the car shaking and damn near crying. I ask them if they are ok and they are just shaken. He tells me he thought he could keep up since he had these new 17's. But he was stock other than the wheels and motor. Didn't help that tires were almost bald. After I realized he was ok I got back in my car and said "leave the corners for cars that can handle it" :stick" and drove off.

Probably a b18 engine swapped from an Integra GS-R. Good for 170 hp, Funny he thought 17" wheels would make him faster.

He claimed once he got his Ebay coilovers that he would keep up with me in the corners....

Even with a properly built Civic I think he would still have his "driver mod" installed backwards

One rule I live by when driving the S. Dont ever race Civics. If you win, woohoo you just beat a civic. If you lose, damn.. you just lost to a civic. Lose/Lose situation.
