Easy kill.....too easy!
Not many people where I live like doing any racing. I'm in my C230K with pulley. I pull up to this light and this cavalier with huge dual exhaust mufflers is sitting there. He revs it over and over again the whole time the light is red, which is a long time. It's shaking my seat when he revs it which is annoying. I looked at him once and then just pretended like I wasn't going to do anything. I was thinking, ESP on or off. I went for off.
Well, it was double left turn lanes. I was in the outer lane, so I had a further distance to go. I took off and had to shift to 2nd while still in the turn. When I did this, I spun the h-e-l-l out of the tires, but didn't lift, and he was right next to me. Once I got going straight, I picked up some speed and hit rev limiter in 2nd. I couldn't even hear my engine over his exhaust and I was watching him instead of the tach. But I picked up speed quick enough to pull ahead and get in front for the next light, which was only about 300 feet. So it was a short race, but he's gotta be pretty slow for me to be next to him and then pull ahead right away and get in front. I had to turn left again and he was going straight.
But now the best part, he pulls up next to me and tells me to roll down the window. I was gonna say something bad about his cavalier, but he says "You got a V8 in there." I said, "No, 4-cylinder". He said cool or something like that and that he loved the car and then the light changed. Pretty cool kid even though he ruined his car with those big canister mufflers. I need a bigger challenge.

Only domestic car that i raced so far is my friends ford focus.
He hung around till 35 then got dusted. He lowered the car, put new bumper,Cold air intake, Muffler, took the resonator off!!
Pritty ricy with that resonator off and the new muffler, you cannot even listen to music cause its so loud!
He got pulled over several times, for everything:
-loud exhaust
-loud intake
-illegal tint
-too low

Although i do take pride in killing those four bangers on the street, wanting to race everybody after putting in an intake and a muffler and thinking they are the fastest **** on the street!!
