Default German Fly By

So i am on my way home from a wonderful night. The air is warm against my unshaven face. The lights seem to turn green at the top of 1st gear every time. My belt is loosened from the mighty feast just recently undertaken.

Vrooommmm.

1.8T flies by me then cuts over two lanes to turn right. "OMG, was that a blitzkrieg?" Well that wont happen twice. So i drop it into first which puts me at about 8300rpm and cut an ass load of people off to turn right with this guy. The very next light i am sitting side by side. I launch one of the best launches i have ever launched in my life of launching. And he takes his sweet time getting to second gear. We are at the second light.

I am upset at this guy for not even owning up to his German fly by already. So i just make the motions and go through the gears like i would if there was a cop behind me. But then once we hit 25mph, he takes off again. And then cuts over past me and turns right. I follow and then he turn into a parking lot and sits there. Wont turn off his car, or even roll down the window. &@)#*@)!)*)#*$)@_!_!&$T^#$@@#()#@(*$#(^$#*&@!!@($# &!!!!! I hate pussies!!!!

Come on man, I have a GTI and I won't go from a dig with anyone. Whats the point? Generally speaking 1st gear on a 1.8t is all wheelspin.

Its one thing to go to the track, where you have some slicks and are setup for a dig, it's another to fight a losing battle on the street. With most fwd cars, if your intent on racing them, get up to 20+ miles per hour and just stay in your powerband...they'll go for it then.

Good clowning! Who cares if his 1.8t can't launch, that's his problem, a street race is a street race. You did good! I would have done the same! S2k drivers like you make me proud!

If R32 pulls up next to me and does an 4-5k RPM all-wheel-drive clutch dump on me I don't cry about it, I just do the best I can. In a street run I will take whatever advantage I can.

As for the poor people that got cut off, they were just street fodder. Just don't run people off the road and don't push your car too hard in the turns, we don't wanna read about you hurting yourself or you S2k.

I race my fried with a Turbo Jetta IV with a 91 octane chip. I think hes getting about 19 psi from the stock turbo. From a 40 I easily took about a car length and a half. I started in vtec and he started with him at about full boost. Then he kept steady with me until about 135 when I eventually gained a couple more car lengths, then I shut down.

He also took his to the track. It only ran an 1/8 mile in 10 seconds flat without the back seats in with his 91 octane chip and 19 psi. We don't have a 1/4 mile near me. He is a good driver. Those things just have way too much torque and no horsepower where its hard to launch.


Edit:

As for r32 skylines....
r32 skyline way ahead My camera phone was only set at low res when I took this. It was taken after we raced after the next light when he had to take a left in front of me.

I raced one. Might have been r33. I was stock and had the car for about a day. We gave each other the look. I launched while he stayed back for a couple of seconds. After I was threw 1st and shifted to second, he was already about 3 car lengths ahead of me and all four of his tires slipped alittle bit when he shifted. The sound was from the exhaust was orgasmic. Im pretty sure it was at least a low 12 second car if not 11 second car.

Damn when I think what this site used to be like....

Now we got somebody passed me (it does happen on the freeway) so I chased him and he wouldn't race me so he is a dickhead! lmao

And that is also a street encounter?
