The Goat finally lost Twice

Tonight just came back from some street races....a few people wanted to race me but I only raced 2 cars first one was a 2004 WRX....Long story short we line up....we go on 3 and he took off and i was goin sideways for a little till i finally caught and he was already 5 cars ahead..at the end of the race i was way behind about 7 cars...we talked he had a jdm motor swap and alot i mean alot in his car but wouldnt say what he runs in the quarter.......Now for the second race when I pull up to the line a few people were trying to teach me how to launch it compared to the first one....so I line up with my friends cobra on 3 we go i got a better launch holding the brake and having a steady rev at 1k rpm's still had some bad traction though went sideways a little so were both going neck and neck and he just starts pulling not hard though by the end of the race he was a car lenght in front of me not even...and all he has done to his car is a filter.....one of the kids got both races on vid but everyone told me that kid never gives up his videos so im gonna try to get them so i can post them.

Your car runs 245/45-17.

You are looking at roughly $300 for a pair of the 555R's.
