I've had a bit of fun with a Mazdaspeed 3, and a Mazdaspeed 6. Traffic came up in both incidents though, so I couldn't wind it out, ie. no winner no loser because before it became a race, it became a crawl. It was fairly quick though, what with having 263 at the crank.


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.

when other people are telling you that you will lose, they are not doing it because they "want" you to lose, or they don't "believe in you"...it has nothing to do with vote of confidence or not, facts are facts. would you rather have everyone sugarcoat it and be like, oh, you might win, give it a shot...then when you lose badly you embarrass yourself?

no, you won't even take him off the line (unless he gives you a headstart), and never catch up

i like to mess with people that haven't seen my car or know that its turbo yet. when they hear someone say that its quick they do the usual and ask me what i have done to it. so i just tell them that i've upgraded the intake and exhaust some...lol.


Are they effing blind? They can't assume the worst by looking at the friggin brakes you have? haha.


actually dude a lot of them are and really stupid on top of that around my area. you wouldn't believe when i'm out cruising how many morons in cavaliers and civic ls's wanna try and run me with that little fart can hanging off the back of the cars.

they will keep driving next to me hitting the gas and letting off over and over again. i will let the bov do the laughing for me to give them a hint but it doesn't always work. and thats when i let them crack into it while i sit for a second or two. then when they get there hopes up i crash down that little dream in that ricers head by flying past them as if they are sitting still. its fun.

actually just for an example, the other day i was on my way to work. i was sitting at the stop light making a left hand turn. the way the intersection is set up the left turn lane actually seperates from the main road. so while i was at the light waiting for it to turn green i hear this reving coming from my right. i look over and its some young yo boy in a civic with a fart can looking back at me. i just looked over and shoke my head in disapointment.


Car is being put on hold until further notice. Work will continue pending on if i get the new toy i want or not. I will keep you all posted.

UPDATE ON THE TUNE. It went ok but a few little issues that are causing my performance to be less than expected have shown themselves. Now I have to resolve them when I get the chance and it will be back to PTuning for the finishing touches.

I beat a Corvette Last night. He was next to me doing about 45 and gave me three honks I was like what the... So I down shift to 2and and I started to pull on him. I had my window down and it sounded like he was in 3rd or something. By 80 we were almost neck and neck but I still had a foot or so on him. When we stoped at the light I saw him, he looked like he was 14yrs old. I think it was a C4, the 1980s to 1996?, but I don't think it had the LS1 or anything like that or he would have left me like a setting duck.

I just raced him again, he works at Walmart of by my house, this time from a light and with a black tc. The tc and I were neck and neck all the way up to 75, then we let off. The Corvette was about 3-4 cars behind us, Then he flew past us and flashed his lights like he thought he won. So ya it's a trud!


My friends 89 Corvette has Headers and an intake and a cam, that car is mean, I think he also has a light-weight flywheel and a racing clutch.

was drivin on the highway wen an integra (dont kno year or nething else) but it had a typical exhaust that sounded like his car was farting at me....so he pulled up next to me while we were doing like 60....i was in 4th didnt even bother downshifting or nething just stepped on the gas, while i heard his car down shift...so he pulled on me till we got to traffic wen he cut thru and put his hazards on...soooooooooooooo i decided id try this time lol...

pulled next to him again doing the same about 60...waited a few and i heard his exhaust start to fart as he dropped a gear...so i dropped to third and watched his headlights in my rearview up to about 115 wen i let off
