Arrow Me vs. My G/F

For my 3,000th post, id thought that I would post up a past race.

Me - 04 Civic SI (160 hp 2.0 DOHC i-VTEC)
Mods - I/H/Midpipe

G/F - 25th Anniversary 01 Pontiac Grand AM GT (175 hp High Output 3.4)
Mods - none

3 Runs
From a dig: She actually pulled the first race a lil on the holeshot until I hooked up and slowly passed her. Other two runs, I launched perfectly, leaving her behind, but not that much ....maybe a couple car lengths

From a roll: Got her all three times, pulling slowly.

They never made the 1999 and up Grand Am GT's with a manual so it has to be an auto.

exactly wat i was thinking. any1 can push a gas peddle in an auto, so saying she "knows how to race" is the same as saying " she is over 3 years old and can reach the gas peddle"

I know many people that can not race an auto properly. But chances are this car doesn't fall into that category. None the less, even an auto 7thgen auto civic requires some knowledge to race because the car will shift at different point depending on when you hit WOT.

damn, my friend has a 2000 grand am gt....and our runs are pretty damn close. From a roll we are even till third then he slowly pulls about 1/2 a car on me, but at the end of 3rd goin into 4th he stops gaining. I think ill have him from a stop cuz im a manual. Im not sure what his top end is, but i think he will beat me there

That is funny because I raced one on Sunday (you can read my post) and those things are not bad at all off of the line, but then it was as if it died at around 70-75. Just as you described. They do have some sort of emblem on the 1/4 pannel correct???
