RX-8 vs iamboo (bro)(Turbo)

On our way home from dinner with the parents, we spotted a car behind us that seemed kinda sporty. When it came up next to us, it turned out to be an RX-8! A red RSX-8 with one person in the car while me and my bro were in his turbo civic. Both cars taunted each other with a rev or two. We finally came up to a signal that was red. No cars from the front or side. The light turned green, the RX-8 took us by half a car length off the line. We then caught up and started to pass him fairly fast. In the end, we took him about 1 1/2 to 2 car lengths. What a good birthday present for my bro !!!!

TURBO RULES!
