Ran an Integra on the highway.

So anyway I was driving back from work when I see this Integra that looked straight out of the recent Veedub ads coming up behind me. I really didnt pay any attention to him until he got up besides me and downshifted making his car really damned loud. I figured it would be fun so I drop it down to 4th and waste him pretty bad then I let off at about 105 and slowly applied the brakes, of course he then flew right by me with his hazards on.

I have also beat countless new SUVs on the highway as of late. They are coming out of the wood work I swear.

I am torn between saying "Good Kill" and "You should have run him off the highway."

You be the judge.

Oh c'mon Urban. You know you would run a TB SS, Typhoon or TT Cayanne if they pulled up next to you

I had a Asian guy pull up next to me in a Tahoe with 22's I took off from the light quick and he was right on my *** so I opened it up and he was still hanging I was like WTF is something wrong with my car . He got right next to me at the next light and we went for it I looked back and he was rosting his 22's I got him by a half a car come to find out he was running a S/C at 12# of boost.

I once raced the craziest looking HD Dodge I have ever seen. It was a dually that looked like it was jacked 5 feet in the air and it had a grill guard made out of box tubing that had large horns on it. It sounded really damned mean thought.

I also wanna add that there are many tastefully built import and domestic 4 bangers around here but they rarely race and when they its against each other. The guy I ran up against gives them a bad name. The fastest 4 cylinders around here look totally stock aside from a nice set of rims.

The I believe the fastest econobox around here is auto ecotec cavi with a turbo. It looks bone stock down to the hubcaps and its blow off valve is ultra quite so its a total sleeper.

My dads Tahoe Vortec 350 was pretty fast. K&N Intake setup, 1 3/4 headers, true duals no cats into glasspacks, 4.11s, Edel TBI intake, Comp TBI .460/.470 cam, 2800 stall, shiftkit.

It was faster than my camaro. We needed a tow rig, so we make a tow rig.

A few years ago, when my GTA was stock, I had a diesel truck give me a bit of a scare on a 2-into-1 highway on-ramp. If I hadn't had the L98, he would've had my scalp hanging from his rollbar...

So now, when I see all of the mods for diesel trucks, & hear figures like "600 lb-ft of torque"... It doesn't surprise me a bit.
