Awesome Night!

Every sunday night, everyone in the area meets in a parking lot. To show off there cars...etc Like a unofficial car show. Well about 200 cars showed up more or less. Then the cops showed up, kicked us out and everyone left at the same time. So everyone is driving down this road racing

My buddys up there in his 92 RS B4C camaro playing with the imports/Domestics. I had a integra play with me, but there were soooooo many cars cruising, we had no where to run. Those guys were going a bit too fast for me, so I started falling back. Then I hear a car coming next to me fast, he shifts hard next to me and I hear "Spshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh". So he starts pacing me. I usually don't go WOT in my car much, because I try and take very good care of it. But I defenetly couldnt let this opportunity go by. I thought I heard him downshift and by this time his back tires were at my front bumper, so I nailed it. I had the most beautiful downshift and my car took off like a mother ******. By 65 I pulled a good car on him and was gaining. We went from about a 40 mph roll. But then we caught up to everyone and had no more room.

I was a very happy camper tonight. I really gotta get this car to the track and get times. I thought it would be close going from a roll with one of those It was a eclipse and he had the Gsx sticker on his bumper. I dunno if thats right, but it was G something

Nice job. I must say I love your car it is one of the nicer ones on this site. It just looks so nice in that sig pic.

If it was a GSX that would be the AWD model. They have alot of parisitic drivetrain loss. They run like high 14's in teh 1/4 w/ a good driver. If it was a GST its the same car but its FWD. they are good for a low 15 w/ a good driver. I don't know what they trap. BUt good kill. take it to the track and give us your times!

Oh speaking of waste gate noises there is a new one in ultimate rice mods. There is a loud speaker that you can mount in your car that is hooked to your ignition and when you hit a set rpm it blurts out a "sphhhhhhhh" like a waste gate dumping. There is a little neon running around town with one, you can tell be cause you'll hear the fart pipe rev up to like 3k and the gate "dumps" like he's running 3psi or something. Quite funny really.

Nice kill by the way.
