ok so friday night im going to this race spot about 7 or 8 miles from my house. i go there, blah blah look at ppls cars for about 30 minutes and leave cause no one i knew showed up. so on the way back i get on the highway and theres this black accord lx prolly a 2000 model in front of me with 2 kids in it. so as im pulling past them i just stare at em, they didnt like it and the fun began. we were still on the on ramp so when we pull off we get up ahead of traffic and we both gun it. pretty much i was slowly pulling the entire time, and after about 15 seconds of it he gave up. ok then saturday night i was going to this race spot about 2 miles from my house without getting on the highway, i was on a pretty big street though. so im driving along and ic this truck just pulling up right behind me. he ends up driving on my @$$ for about half a mile after which i just pull off into the right lane. so as he pulls past me i gun it damn did that truck get smoked. well i thought that maybe he wasnt even trying, so i slow back down to about 40 and he is pulling past me rather quickly, so i gun it again, and once again i smoke him, but this time i was sure he was trying to race me cause when i slow back down instead of going the 45 or something he was before i gunned it he was going about 60-65. ended up being a dodge dakota with a v6. oh and i have an lx automatic. . sry for making stories so short and stuff but need to go do stuff.

Actually, I was racing another civic last night, and I was very surprised, my tires spun for a second or two going into second...and there wasn't any dirt on the road, and it wasn't raining...probbaly wont happen again until i get my turbo!

You smoked a V6 Dakota? Plus you have an auto LX? I'm gonna have to call BS. Those trucks are quick as ****, my friend has one. He would take my auto LX out in a heart beat from ANY starting speed.
