It's not too often that someone ever tries to race me, and I don't konw why. Maybe I don't look like the "racer" I used to be.

I was on my way to meet up with some friends for dinner and I needed to get some gas. After filling up the tank, I noticed a lowered Eclipse looking like it's waiting for me to leave. As I pulled out of the gas station, he then chases after me. So I look over to me left and there he is at me and I can hear his BOV. "I think he wants to race", so what the hell, I back. We ended up a the stop light in perfect racing postion . I barely even launched, almost rolled off the line until the tires gripped and then I gunned it. He on the other hand spun his tires which for the first 50 feet was pretty even . After that it was over. From first to second, I had over a car length. But third gear, at least 3 cars so I shut her down.
The kid rolls his window down at the next stop and say "damn that's fast". I just smiled and gave hime a thumbs up



It turns out the kid is only a senior in High School.
Remember those days guys, when you thought your car was faster than it really was.

 

ahhh senior year that takes me way back to the spring of 2002

 

nice kill

 

nope, i knew my car was slow, becuase i had taken it to the track, and knew what it ran......then again, it was not my "S", but my Benz, which was a pig....but i could beat civics!! WooHoo!!!

 

Try running a 1990 Integra against a Lamborghini Diablo or Viper

Those were the days...

I think i lost to a yugo once....misshifted in my geo prizm!!!

 

I am still a junior..

 

don't feel bad i am a junior but i don't have a car period.

 

My 1991 Tercel (new) got beat going uphill by a stakebed truck. It's even sadder to know that I don't think he was even racing.
