Hehe, well I had just fixed my exhaust flange, took the car for a 5 mile one way trip. Well soon as I turn onto the major road (Atlantic blvd) this prelude with graphics all down the side and what he obviously thought were rims, he had for hub caps.

The first light I came to turned green, he revved his engine I laughed, and did my normal thing but with a little more go.

Next light, you'll notice every light we came to seemed to turn green. He revved his engine and didn't even look at me this time, this time he tried to go so fast, his shifts were so darn wimpy, that the car shifted completely when he shifted. While I at still half throttle kept right beside him.

Next light same thing, except I kept laughing.

At the next light the ground seemed a little dryer so I nodded, to him, he knew it was on. And wham, the light turned green, he left first but he hooked first also, I heard one squeal from his tires, and mine just kept spinning but I didn't go. Finally I went and it seemed almost instantaneously I had already passed the little ****.


After that run, he flicked me off and sped up and turned into my lane to block me. But my trip was over, so I turned around.



fun fun....



Shane

 

i doubt he flipped you off and blocked you off.

 

Likely story dude.

 

Been fliped off many times after winning a race. I happens a lot more than you think. I once had a soda thrown at me and my friend while we were in his 00 Z. Some punks are like that. Oh well good times good times.

 

Wait a minute wait a minute.

no "d00d," spelled "instantaneously" correct, was somewhat readable... technically no spelling errors....

Albeit he still raced in poor conditions, I'm flabbergasted.

 

Poor conditions, yes, but we drove like 5 miles to get to the ones I would race in. And it just happened I was tire do of him trying to make me so I showed his little but what American muscle looks look when it’s in front of you and there’s nothing you can do about it.

But he flicked me off when he was beside me, and then switched into my lane, guy must have thought he was cool, except he forgot I still could have passed him, my car is faster....

SO LISTEN TO THIS! there was a r i c e burner with a kit and all this sh it... alls i did was pull up next to him give the gas a tap then i look over at his A$$ and hes got his finger flyin all over the glass turnin purple screamen his lungs off at me lol i was like whoa dude what kinda speed are you on obviously none in his car if a v6 2.8 made him that pissed....i just dont get it.. i wasnt like flooring it or any of that.. just 1 tap and a look over,, people these f'N days

 

ah there we go. whew. thought the earth was off its axis.

 

have no idea what you said man.

 

oh forget it

 

Its "flipped off"... "flicked" refers to whats done after picking ones nose.

 

WTF does that mean?

I agree, this all sounds like

How the hell do you expect that he would know or even think that you have a 2.8 with that hood?

 

his shifts were so darn wimpy, that the car shifted completely when he shifted. While I at still half throttle kept right beside him.

that was one of the funniest stories ive read

 

i kpet throttle going, and while he was going, he was driving a stick, and when he shifted the front settled maybe 5 inches and then rose again after the shift was completed. His shifts sucked, they took way too long for a performance(quicker) shift.

 

right......

 

IMO his shifts sucked, my mom, who hasn;t driven a manual since she first started driving, and shes 43 now, could do better.

 

 

ahh leave the kid alone he smoked a ***** man thats good atleast he didnt loose or anything

 

this coming form someone driving an auto...

 

auto, that'll woop your manual.

I prefer auto, but i can drive a stick too. And i can drive a stick very well might i add.

I can get more reliabvle performance from an auto, they can take more power and everything. More consistant track times with one as well.

 

Wanna race?

 

WHEN WILL THIS EVER END?

 

:lala:

 

Possibly never....

 

can you build a 10 sec 305 too?

 

Only if he uses an auto which 'adds power'.

 

UMMM well its like this if you call a 305 tpi american muscle then you have alot to learn shane ...

 

Only 400+ HP, c'mon man hes got an AUTO! Youll need nos! and dont forget to double clutch! Sorry Shane, I had the same drivetrain as you and changing to a manual made it much, much faster.

 

actually i know a guy who ran a 88 305 N/A in the 10's so it can be done.
but last i went to the track mine ran 14.76 at gainsville. so..... not too impressive but its good for me.

 

i guess that was in response to me? because i too have one of those magical autos, so i guess it will be a close race.

 

and you are saying that your stock engine and transmission is going to beat someone with a stock engine and a manual????

hmmm i wanna watch you race this one..LOL

and i seriously doubt your a used car sales man and a employee somewhere else and going to school

 

ok, a 10 second N/a 305?? sure.

and you ran a 14.76?? ok.

 

I know THERCKID has an auto, thats why I'm so worried he will beat me! No seriously I have over 400hp, I'll know how much when its dyno'd, anyways Shane your gonna have to run better than a 14 to beat me. Sorry, Shane but if you want people to believe the crap you post, at least make it sound like you know what your talking about. Also when you get pissed by what someone says, don't get ridiculous and start the......My car will beat your car........thats crap, and from experience: no matter how fast your car is, there is ALWAYS somebody whos faster. So put up, or shut up!

 

Dude, who the hell are you tying to kid? You told me less than a month ago that you never drove stick and wouldn't waste your time because auto is just so much better. I'm still getting good with my 6 speed even though i've had it since July. I'm pretty sick with it but you can always out-do yourself. That's why people with manual trannies have a hard time pulling consistant times. Sometimes you shift better, sometimes you miss a gear, sometimes you don't come off the clutch the way you want to. It happens.

 

Autos are fine, I prefer manual especially for a smaller car tho. The 700R4 isn't exactly a postertranny for strength. And the huge ratio spread between first and second is a big drawback. If you only started driving manual in the past couple weeks you're far from good at it.

 

 

Shane,

How did I know this thread would end up like this. You certainly know how to bring out the worst in everyone.
