Burned by two cars in under five minutes...

Call me a sissy but damn, I got up on a 2000 GT stang decked out CF lights, 17's, exaust... all I could see. I get next to him doin about fifty we gun it and damn his engine roars and hes gone... I cry and see a Dark blue civic SI 2000, cruise up to him and we get into it, at the top of a hill as I thought I had him shifting second to third, his engine begins to scream and I just chake my head... NOS. I drive home with an adrenaline rush and dissapointment, but hey its always fun ehh...[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

also, an engine that screams doesnt always mean nitrous. if he was spraying, you would have seen him fly ahead about 3 carlengths on u

What did you expect when you bought this car? It's a ULEV Economy Commuter Vehicle, not a race car.

it's cool man, i got took by a acura legend on the highway last night. i wasn't trying to race him at first. i just cruised past him and then like a couple minutes later he came flying by. so i gunned it and caught up to him and we were neck and neck for a while but then his other horsies kicked in and he started to pull away. i knew i was gonna lose but it was fun. then the dumb a$$ almost slammed into a semi.
