im guessing i just cant drive , or maybe its the whole auto thing but any ways here it goes.

Im coming home from work today at around 3pm, and i am on a 4 lane road known as 436 for u florida people, and this like 1980ish prelude pulls next to me.
my windows are down so i naturally just glanced at him. he starts making his car car jerk i guess hes playing with his clutch. I look in my rearview just to make sure there isnt a cop right there , cause that would suck , but their is an ambulance there so what ever. the light turns green and i start off slowly and hes pacing me grilling me up so at around 30 i floor it we are about even up to 50 and by 60 hes like 1/2 a car up then 70 hes like 1 1/2 i shut it down and i start feeling like crap cause i thought i would win for sure.

Now the best part, as i let off the gas to slow down that ambulance behind me, was following us. They get into the middle lane to pass me , mind u im still doing like 60ish and the driver is just smiling at me as he passes i hear him mash the gas and he catches the prelude and it seems like they continued to race down 436 i thought that was great. I wanted to see what happend but i had to turn down a diffrent road to go home. I just thought i would share that with u guys.

by the way this was my first sorta race i never tried before so poop
i have a 01lx with drop in K&n i know my car is slow but eww, that was sad.

o yah any 7thgeners live around the UCF area? here in florida? we should gets some meets going. i saw one coming down hall road the other day just wonderin

so did the twin turbo diesel own the prelude? even if it is around 10000 lbs, should be interesting...

is there a safe way to launch with an auto? without f-ckin up ur tranny with N dropping. I mean i tried power brakin and it seems like its about the same as slammin on the gas like normal. I broke my nissan N dropping but i could burn rubber with that POS. i miss that car.
