They are. I know for a fact the car I raced wasn't a 5.0.

Well, last night I was driving to my gf's and I saw this late 90s Impala SS (just like my friend's brother's in the video I had up a while ago that I raced). We are going about 65ish and he jumps in front of me. I think nothing of it but I guess he didn't like my HIDs so he flicks me off and floors it. I laugh and decide to chase him. About 2 miles ahead, there is a right hand off ramp onto another highway that has a posted speed of 40. It's nothing extremely sharp but could make you slide if you're not ready for it. I guess the guy thought he would just blow away from me but for the next 2 miles, he had no more than 1 length on me and we are just climbing in speed.

About 1/4 mile from the turn, we are going about 115 (I am at least) and I let off but don't hit the brakes. This guy continues into the turn but hits the brakes hard going into it (really bad idea for anyone to do) but held it and took the turn at about 90. Well, I was still going 100 and knew my tires and suspension would hold me on this so I floor it. I cut into the turn peaking 100 mph and overtake him on the inside with NO WHEEL SQUEAL AT ALL!.

As I pass him, I only gain about 1/2 length on him but hold it for another 1/4 mile (b/c he wasn't pulling but just holding) and let off. In the distance, I guess my lights traveled far enough to see the glare of a cop sitting in the median. I let off and just coast down to about 80 and by the time I get to where the cop was, I was back to 65. He wasn't running radar luckily but that dumbass Impala flew by at well over 100 mph and scared the shit out of the cop. hahahahahahahaha

All and all, the Impala driver had the best look on his face when I over took him on the inside of the turn.

I'm out cruising after class and I stop at a red light, right behind me there's this bright yellow car on my bumper, can't really tell what it was but I knew it was rice. When the light turned green he turned onto the lane next to me and started speeding. It was a bright yellow toyota tercel with altezza lights, an aluminum spoiler, chrome rims, and a nasty fart can muffler; yep, rice. So I just chuckle a bit and keep pace with him and traffic he blocks me off when I tried to switch lanes. And i'm stuck behind a trolley bus filled with japanese tourists. I saw them eyeing the tercel and I guess they thought it looked cool. So I down shift into third and pull up to the lane next to him and he tries taking off again! I mash the gas and pass him easily and with all the cute japanese hunnies watching I weave through the lanes and lose him, and I can see his bright yellow tercel weaving through traffic trying to follow me. and he finally gets through the traffic and starts gaining some distance (by then I had already shifted back into 5th gear and was cruising again) and he gets cut off by a CRV and slows down to make a right turn Moral of the story is this, don't ever show off in a riced out tercel. evar

My friend has an 06 f250 powerstroke diesal. He absolutely smashed this little civic that came up to him reving up and acting like he could beat him. He(the civic's driver) had no idea what his truck could do. It was awsome seeing the kid get out of his car asking to see what was under the hood. His best time is in the low twelves.

Yeah, NEVER mess with turbo diesels. Their torque alone is more than our engines have in HP even heavily modified......haha

............yeah............my palms INSTANTLY started sweating after the curve. When I let off the gas, I checked my pulse and it was easily around 180 beats per minute. I counted 45-50 beats for 15 seconds .

Fun times....fun times.

I'd never do anything crazy like that with my tC unless I've had the same suspension setup as Web's done to my car

The extra negative camber I have from the springs helped me out b/c my rear end was able to hug the inside much easier rather than be on the outer edges of the tread.

I was on my way to my girl's house to have dinner with her and her dad and this blue Honda Fit comes zooming past me At first I was wondering if the Fit had a k20 in it since I've heard that some models come with the k20. So I down-shift to 4th and catch up to him behind a stop light. Fortunately he was going the same way I was going and I sped up next to him and waited for him to book it. To my surprise, the driver was a femaleSure enough the chick floors it and starts pulling slowly. Then I mashed the gas, shifted into third and catch up to her in a second I got bored toying with her and sped away, weaving through traffic. I could see her weaving behind me trying to catch up but by the time she got past traffic, I was loooonnng gooonnee Silly girls and their Honda Fits The sun was setting so I couldn't tell if she was cute or not

yeah, but they're also like 95 lbs... not too much on the top end, but they're probably pretty quick. and i bet they take to mods really well. like the first gen civic hatches.
