This is kind of a sad story. I was driving around town and pulled up next to a beat looking bad paint, dents and stock hubcapless wheels) 98ish neon not really sure what year it was. Anyway he starts to rev the engine and i rolled down the window and laughed becuse when i pulled up to him i seen his stock muffler hanging down and didnt look like it was even hooked up. So when the light turns green we take off and he smoked me. I didnt really get into it untill second becuse i wasnt goin to waste my time but never caught up. At the next light i see him sitting there laughing at me and this time i was ready. We take off and again i get left in the dust(even worse the second time). My tc is stock except for a K/N drop in and a Tanabe Concept G. I didnt hear a blow off valve or the singin of a turbo on his car so im dumfounded on how he beat me. I realized i should be sittin in a corner with a dunce cap on but i thought it was pretty funny so i figured i would let u guys in on the funny

You don't know how many times I've seen some raggedy beat up cars at a track layin down 11 or 12 second 1/4 mile times. He might have had a turbo with a recirc instead of atmospheric bov, that in conjunction with an open dump tube (loud as hell, exhaust was there for "decoration") would pretty much mask the turbo sound. But yeah don't feel bad man, some people like to keep their cars looking like that for exactly what happened.




My car isn't the fastest car out there, but I'll tell ya....

Sometimes I haul more ass than a pimp driving a caddy full of hoes.

man that sucks, he must've been a total sleeper. He probably did have a turbo in it, but had that thingy (i forgot what its called, but you cant hear the blow-off valve, its used in alot of euro turbo cars). Theres a couple out here that look like garbage but smash on the unexpected.

Yea I know all about sleepers i have one my self(92 s10, 375hp) but when i take off it takes off it u can tell y u just got smoked That car look beat i was soo shocked, it looked like it should have been totaled it had soo many dents and crap on that thing.

Talk about sleepers... I guess i'll fess up since we're talking about it. About a year ago, sometime last summer, i was doing about 75 on the highway going home from work and this little white turd of a car is pulling up behind me and then up beside me looking over as if to race. So i look over at the Geo Metro, yes Metro, and just bust out laughing and gun it to pull away, but to my amazement, even at 75 mph, that MF'er pulled away and handed me my ass, Not only did he beat me, i couldn't even catch up. It was definately more than just the 50 some HP 3 cylinder that it came with lol!

I dont know why i get myself into these things but, it's all fun. Well this was maybe two weeks ago and i was crusing on ritchie hwy going to marley station, and i evo passed my not speeding or anythin jus doin the limit. So i said what the hell let me have some fun. So i get in his lane behind and speed up to his back and he speeds up and gets in the lane the right with no cars in front of either of us. So i down shift and he down shifts as well. I did the little three horn honk and we both gas it. Well yea he tore me a a$$ of course by alot, i started laughing saying to myself. I dont know why i did that but it was fun. So we pull over and talk he told me he had I,E, and i told him i had a I,E. He said i got much respect for tc's. I know what they are capable of. Sh!t i got beat by a boosted one. He was a cool guy. And we went on our way.

raced a hottie in the new altima. we were at a light and she peels out and dashes to the next light. i was just driving normal. then next light, i take a look and notice how hot she was. so the light turns green and she peels out again, then i try to catch up, to get her number, and she's still flooring it. so i then WOT it and accidentally pass her. then the next light, she stops a couple of feet in front of me. so i launch it, and get the jump and accidentally pass her again. never did get that number, lol

also raced a v6 camaro on a 4 lane street with speed limit being 45 i think. we were pacing each other for a little bit and i was waiting for him to make the move because him and his passenger kept on checking out my car and me and my girl. then we finally line up. do a reg launch, then he floors it, passed him by 2nd, had about 2-3 cars by end of third, hand about 4 at mid-end of 4th. my girl just looked back and laughed at them

Nice kill against the Altima! Damn those things look nice.

Haha, but thats a tough choice: chick's number or a win

Well, considering that you already have a girl, I think you made the right choice.

I got a funny one... A blue Stratus SXT (I'll admit, i like them and almost bought one) was messing with me this morning on the highway. He kept cutting me off, hardcore, like... missing my bumper by about 5 feet at 60 MPH. So i was getting pissed after about the fourth time. Well i decided to tail him until the traffic let up so i could show him what was up. Finally it cleared up and it's just me and him on a 6-lane. He is in the middle lane and i'm in the fast lane, i pull up very slowly to get a glimpse of this asshole and he stomped it and slowly started pulling. So i just kinda hung with him, he started looking like "yay i'm winning" so i had to lay it on him,lol. I dropped back... crossed over the three lanes, pulled up on his otherside and then pulled away. HAHA it was great. He was so pissed that once i finally let up, he caught up and tried "scaring" me by tailgating me for the next mile.

I was on my way home from work sat night and this car was riding my bumper and there was no one in the other lane, she could have gone around so i merge over and she passes me in a facus zx3(i think thats what its called). We both get cought at a red light it turns green and takes off spinning tires and all so i catch her at the next red light and my car is all stock, i rev my stock exhaust at her and laught. With these new tires i got i dont spin much so we both go at it. She stuck with me untill about 4500 rpm in 2nd, then i just pulled on her, she was about 2-3 cars behind and i stopped after i reached 100 in the 55mph zone. she flys by me light a stupid racer and she puts on her hazzards witch really pissed me off. Another win for the stock tc

Nice win, but i'm surprised she even stuck within 3 car lengths up to 100 MPH. Atleast you know who really won

her car wasnt stock, it had a kit on it, and exhaust, im sure there was intake, it was pretty loud. But what was funny was she had what it looked like 17's on the rear and she was rolling with stock rims on the front, maybe she couldnt afford all 4.
