Default BEST RUN IVE HAD IN A WHILE!

saturday night sydney australia


i was at the lights when a 2003 model type r rocks up!!!
we said hey he complimented my ride (its just stock) and i complimented his (its just felt like the right thing to do).


we were cruising together down the highway wen from behind at jet speed a godzilla r32 painted in a candy blue and a S15 silvia in black fly by.
me and the type r just decide to give it abit more gas just to see whats going on and check out their rides.
when we caught up the S15 decides to line up the type r (which is stock) and they go off!!!.


starting from a rolling start in 3rd at 70 kms they go and by the time the S15 hit 4th he was at least half a car length away.
i got excited so i gave chase to the S15 unable to get a proper line up cause of other cars in the way i followed it from behind.

his godzilla friend decides to come up next to me at the lights and the type r decides to go round to with the silvia.
this time this silvia lets it go and big time.

he must of had like 20 psi of boost ATW when he took off because the silvia and the type r took off even and when the silvia put the foot down he bunny hopped up to 3rd gear ...CRAZY!!! and he took the type r away.
as for me and the GTR we just watched.
i wanted the silvia so i gave chase again ... knowing the GTR next to me was just a animal compared to my stock AP1 it was not in my interest and a fellow 2 litre will be my target.

i finally got line on with the silvia at 80kms and both gave it ......
i weas in 2nd at 7000rpm when i lined up when vtec kicked in against his boost it kept up well ... we were both swerving in and out of traffic and still racing ... i would say his power was more but my handling was better so when we landed out even i was quite happy when we landed at the next lights.
he smiled and i smiled and the lights went green again i didnt take off because i didnt see the lights and he just ripped it.

GTR came up at the next lights and we it was on!!!
type r far left corner
silvia next to type r
gtr next to silvia
AP2 behind gtr
left lane was going to close up so the ITR has to get it or get owned.
they run and gtr and silvia fly off ....

gtr had the silvia by 3rd and i didnt do well off the line but by the time the gtr and sivia were in 2rd i wasnt far behind with my 9 grand shifts!!!!
a SS commodore ute decides to join the fun and lines the ITR up ...
i had my bets on the SS ute no offence but the ITR did pretty good taking it off the line and going hard out ... popping gears too.!!!(i think the ute was auto cause there was no wheel churps)

We all then decided that traffic was tight so it became a cat and mouse weaving through traffic again!!!
me and GTR did very well and so did the type r but mr silvia could not take risks and swerve!!!!

we were weaving in and out of traffic in a 70 kmh zone at 120kmh so it was quite interesting that my S2K handled so well (i knw why it hadles well)
by the time i got to my destination we all beeped off and flashed hi beams and thats was it .
at the end results were...

s15 was good on the straight but too much wheelspin
Gtr was good all round and had the most power
AP2 was a great all round to keep up to these full modded imports
ITR did quite well for a stocky as well all round
SS ute (honestly i expected better no offence)

remember the nissans didnt even sound like nissans and they were really quick i doubt they were even street legal so i was pretty impressed with my overall effort and the ITR ... we did it for the hondas!!!!

no the silvia was bunny hopping
then after that when traffic was in we began to swerve through traffic and it was like a little race to get to the front
