the only way it was a "kill" was cause you basically closed the gap between you and a truck.

you know had it been flat out, it woulda been David vs Goliath... only Goliath would hand you your @ss in a nice little doggie bag and send you on your way.

Wow, so I guess you call weaving in and out of traffic skill.

This is the biggest (and funniest) bunch of bull**** I've heard coming out of someone's mouth since Micheal Richard's apology.

Nobody said or believed you were lying. Its safe to say that everyone believes that YOU believe you won what you believed to be a 'race'.

Everyone else just believes -

Maybe you should have hit the truck....a valuable lesson might have been learned.

Maybe you should've done your research before posting and realized the massacre that would've took place if the Evo was actually racing.

Evo is no joke, there really is no possible way this could have happened. My brother recently bought an Evo VIII modified by Tri-State evo's. It still has the stock turbo with just turboback exhaust, Intake, bigger front mount the car run's 0-60 in under 4 seconds. They're really amazing cars...I'll ask him though if he recently got killed by any c240's...

Man, dont let these doubters get to you. Some people just dont appreciate the skill it takes to make slow cars perform beyond the limits of physics and reason. I'll never forget the day I learned not to doubt the power of imagination and youthful optimism. It was the day i lost to this...



That 5 year old never stopped believing in what she and her ballerina outfit could accomplish.

dude, hurry up and put on your flame suit

then clean your pants cause you were having a wet dream

and you need to stay in school and watch out for puncuations and gramatical errors....... i on the other hand need to watch my spelling


i agree the guy in the evo either wasn't racing, was in a lancer that was dolled up, or was wanting to watch you smash your car that you paid as much if not more for and is about 40 minutes slower in the 1/4 mile

you have a benz, which is a luxuray car, he has an evo which is a sporty/rally car, drive it like it was made, not like you stole it

I just sold my 03 Evo two weeks ago after three years and can honestly say there is no way a C240 can out run an EVO. Mine was modded and had no trouble with older M5's, NSX, etc... I recently purchased a 2007 C230 and as for performance, there is no comparison.
