I beat an SI!!

I was coming home from my fraternity meeting the other night a black honda pulled out of some road and got behind me and started flashing his hiper whites at me until i started to pull into my driveway and then he went on by and revved his engine. So i floor it and catch back up to him and then see the SI badge on the back. So i say to myself...oh sh#$ i'm gonna get my *** handed to me. Then he slows down and i get up beside him and asked him if he wants to race. He said i have a couple of guys with me but sure. My car is still stock and he had an exhaust. So he beeps the horn 3 times and where off. This guy smoked his tires and left a huge black mark when he dumped the clutch, but i just brake torqued it and got him off the line. This guy caught back up to my back bumper and was redlining every gear but i kept pulling a little more. I beat the guy by like 2 cars. I'm still stoked that i beat an SI.

I can tell a major difference with just one more person in the car.
Even tho, it was an SI, nice kill sounds like the guy deserved it.

edit: spelling

Hmmmm....that's interesting, considering that a stock Si will SMOKE a moded 2k1 Civic.

Maybe if all three guys in his car were pushing 200 lbs. each !! I have driven a Si and they are much faster than
the 2k1 Civic EX. I had intake and header on my Civic, and it was slower than a toyota corollla.

- how did you see him make the black streak with his tires if you beat him off the line? do you stick your head out the window when you race or look at your rearview mirror
- i guess this can be considered a kill.

I had to turn back around to go home and i could see the big *** marks in the road. The guys in the car looked like they were 17 or so and skinny as crap. so i dont think weight was that much of an issue. And for the people who dont believe me.....why the hell would i waste my time posting this if i didnt race the guy?
