I tried to kill myself

had a call from a friend and he was telling me about how him and his friends where going to go up and race out in the middle of nowhere doing the twisties


I figured I would head up and try a chance at it


I was paired up against a lg4 thirdgen
basicly we send one someone at each end of the place the run takes place and everyone has some CB's. this way if any cops or other cars come we can get single file again since we are taking up both lanes of the road

well I had a crpapy launch but but once we hit the turns I started to pull on him quickly. and passed him kinda easily (I was braking hard and late and hitting most my turns very good) but one of the turns I hit it going to hot and and my rear end started to slide out on me doing about 95mph. kinda scared the **** out of me doing so and I did happen to lose the race though b/c of that event.


much white smoke you know the place.... the road up there by the landfill


though I hit a all time high top speed through there. 120 and avg prolly around 80-95mph


I'm crazy I know it

but I give him credit I lost due to me messing up.

I admit I lost and I agree it sux


but it wasn't a drag race


I lost b/c during a turn I took it a little too hot and the rear gave on me




psycho the road is near lake lowel in caldwell/nampa area


get off the dennys exit in nampa... make a right which will take you near the sugar beat factory then make a left at that light

follow it down ( it is karcher road turns into hwy 55) then after you pass a few lights (the last one being 10th street) you will see a fruit stand on the left. make a left there and just follow it down for the most part

Everyone loses sometime or another. I think losing every so often makes winning more fun.
