me vs lancer

well coming home from night school yesterday at around 9:30 pm I was driving along this 3 lane open road going a little above the speed limit when this mitssubishi lancer flies up beside me. He passes me and while way ahead of me put on his hazards trying to race me. From what I could tell it was a 4 door auto no exterior mods and judging from the sound i dont think he had any engine mods either, I also got a auto sedan DX with an injen cai. I was alone but he had 3 people total in his car. Anyays so we come up to the light and we nod at eachother, I look ahead and there is a wide open road for miles on end so when the light turned green I floored it. He got a little jump on me as when the light turned red on the other side of traffic i saw hjim starting to roll, but anyways after about two seconds I started to catch up and a second after that I started to pull on him. All his friends in the car started to laugh and he gave me thumbs up lol. I wanted to run with him again but I was nearing my house and just decided to go home.

good one...lancers are family sedans unlike civics that combines both performance and economy. EVO's on the other hand are lancers on steroids. Stock Civics are midway between these two.

Are the Lancers with the O.Z. edition any faster then the stock ones or are they just for looks?

Lol, I have a lancer story...
Black ralley edition was trying to run me on westhiemer (4 lanes each side barred off by a foot-high median), revin up in the lane to my left, so I punched it to mess with him, and left him by 2 cars until traffic came.. lol, then he was gone2 lanes to the left behind a maze of cars and I was parked at 80 when I started to slow down. At this point im in the far right lane, I have my window down and he pulls up into the lane and begins to rev it at what seems to be 5 grand with the clutch half way down waiting for me to make a move, this is around 45 mph, and I drop it from 4th to 2nd to place myself just at the beginning of the powerband when I rev and look over... I thought I would see he make his move and drop the hammer down, but to my delight and dismay the passenger window begins to roll down, for about half a second I was without words, waiting for the next step in the encounter when the man in the passenger seat leans just over the window and lays down a record contending pool of hurl and presumably alchohal all over the front door of the jet black sedan, changing it sleek lamp echoing paint job into a multi-colored mess that was reminesent of a poorly cooked swedish meatball in a chunky duck sauce....

Without another word, I slammed it and drove a few cars ahead to hide the laughter that soon spewed from my passenger and I...

That is a site I will never forget, and a constant painfull reminder of how alchohal, poor decisions and a car can turn into a literally disgusting collision..
