There are some pretty riced out cars over here.. I mean.. you'd be surprised as to how bad the rice is down here.. there are even riced out g35s too.. (Big aluminum spoiler and only the front bumper of some bodykit is on the car) but they don't give me trouble most of the time.. and if they do then i'll just give 'em an earful of my open exhaust and scare them off >=]

Okay, this wasn't a race, but I love it when this happens.

A Dodge Durango V8 was all tailgating me and I was doing reasonable speed. Finally comes time when passing lanes get open and he rushes right past me.

1 min later I see flashing blue lights and who's pulled over? Senior Durango.

I gave him a little honk as I passed him doing the speed limit. ha.

Don't know if you would label this as a win, or even a race, you tell me. So me and an altima(not sure what kind, definitely not the se though) went at it, off the line be beat me bc. i spun the tires pretty bad because the street was so cold(its about 4 degrees over here) i caught him by the time i was about to shift into 3rd then started breaking away. That hole thing lasted about a block and a half, which was when he backed off. I wasn't even trying to race at first, but when i noticed he was going to off hard, well i couldn't let him do that by himself.

So, what do you think, win, not even a race

em2 vs tc
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0dnZD7YYCE

im stock too =]

My list of defeating people

1/4 Street/Track
-Integra gsr (somethings wrong with it but we're equal right now so its based on the better driver my friend btw)
-EM2 (civic)
-Honda ep3 si (hatches)
-Honda Em1 si (coupes not the new ones)
-Integra Ls
-CivicEg
-CivicEk
-240 Zenki KA
-civic Si 06 (very hard to believe i know but the kid messed up on his launch bogged down, AND grinded 1-2nd. Most New civic si drivers in my opinions are nubs, just rich kids that their parents can pay for their high ass insurance.)
-RSX base

Destroyed by
-240 Kouki 2r20
-06 Civic Si (this guy was a fucking good driver killed me on the launch and 2nd pulled away, and 3rd was just gone) lol

Alright, so get this. I'm stopped at the red light in a double left turn lane and this guy in a Hi Yun dai Hyundai Accent with tinted windows pulls nexts to me and revs. WTF?! I couldn't even see how retarded he was because his windows were limo tinted.

Light turns green and he gets destroyed. (of course)

Maybe it was that kid in the Hyundai ricer video that thought he had 200whp because he had a CAI.

^^haha, especially the ones with dual exhaust...


Stupid little 02ish DX Civic with 17s, lowered and altezza lights ran me yesterday. It started by him not letting me into the lane b/c i had to turn so I said F U. I got in the lane next to him and looked over and just laughed at him....hahaha....of course this pissed him off. Light turns green and his tires "chirp" as I'm pulling with no spin. By the time I get about 1/4 into 2nd, I'm already 1 full length in front. Saw him shifting into 3rd as I was about 5-6 lengths and just walking away.

Figures, at the next light he doesn't look at me.

1. ralliart lancers are not evolutions.

2. there is no factory turbo lancer. EVo is the only mitsu factory turbo sedan.

tc>lancers

evo> tc's

Yeah, Cobras are nice mustangs........only model of the stang I'd ever get too. But, I just can't stand how just obnoxiously loud they are when they are tuned. I can deal with that when it comes to old muscle cars, but newer (99-04) Cobras and Mustangs just sound annoying.

sure, cobra's are fast. but its really nothing to brag about when it takes 5 Liters and 8 cylinders (and 40 years of development)to be that way. Slap a turbo on a tc, and for half the price, half the cylinders, and half the displacement, you have a quicker, faster car.

plus, tc's can turn.

haha, true...............then if you tell that to the "domestic civic" owners (a.k.a. Mustangs), they'll say "Well, if I put a turbo on my car and blah blah blah, OF COURSE I'd beat you"......there's never any middle ground with them.

It's fun to listen to people talk though.

Yeah, the V6 only comes in auto but the I4 is either manual/auto. I was looking at one before the tC. Nice and comfy inside but when they said the V6 was ONLY auto, I said no .
