Why are Kills down?
There has been a noticeable drop in kills reported on this forum. Is it because: a) we have gotten used to the beast winning and have decided such reports are no longer news worthy; b) we have matured and have become civic minded citizens; or c) ,God forbid, we are winning less races?

E55 w/ goods, Z32 Project underway
Allow me to post up a quick murder.
2005 Mustang GT TURBO. Lowered, we line up at a rolling 30, I'm in the proper gear and we both nail it. I easily pull several cars on him up to 120. Went at it again from a roll and the same result. We talk a little and the driver is a cool guy and tells me he has never been pulled on like that before and the E55 was a bad *** car. I could hear his blow off valve, gave him kudos on a quick Stang and went our separate ways. This was in the desert with nobody around for miles.
Oh, M6 vert, M5, 370z (please), C6 (two of them) -recent kills.

I've been VERY relaxed driving the beast the past few months but I do get "opportunities" here and there... 
Like so...
E55: 3 Bike: 0
A while ago in Mexico
2 against 2 unknown bikes. (No fairings)
1 against a new GSX-R. Guessin it was a 600.
Pulled instantly on all of them in the beginning and never saw them after that.

I've hunted and hunted and NOONE wants to play.
Coming up on bout 2 months without a kill.
Course I am a geezer so the wife and I are in bed when the kiddies come to play at night.
Usually I find at least ONE guy looking for some action, but nothin.
You know your slumpin when you can't even find a diesel truck to kill up here and they race anything......anytime!

With all the modded EVO's and STi's out there running 500+ whp, I am mostly minding my own business since I am stock. But I am really looking for an M5 (stock) to see how my car stands against one.
I did notice that not many ppl "consider" this a fast car and dont try to mess. Now, in my yellow C6, it was another story.

Re: Kills
I vooped an auto tranny 2010 Corvette Grand Sport, twice, a few weeks back. Once from a dig and once from a 5 mph roll. Come to think of it, I have never lost to anyone in my 63, not that I go out and look to street race. That being said, my SL is faster.

I had a run with a 997TT, multiple pulls from 60 all the way to 170, either my car is really fast or there was something up with his, at one point I was playing catch up and ended up going around him and pull way.
One thing is for sure, my trunk reservoir is doing its job well, car pulled hard from all speeds and we were at it for a while!

Blasting someone from a red light, fun...but the full blown 30-150mph on the street is askin' for trouble. Maybe the beast's reputation is enough to scare everyone off before we have a chance to be irresponsible

Wassup homie! When were you thinkin? I'm gonna be at werk most of the weekend. I can try to squeeze some time to hang out. If we can, just run what you brought, I'm too lazy to switch to drag radials. 
I was suppose to put my wheels back on the 3rd week of April after going to the track, but I got lazy and never put them back on.

We just dont feel like braging about it enless its a worthy kill,I hit the drags last week and killed like 12 cars,I litterally went up to a guy with a c6 zo6 and asked him why he brought it to the track and wouldnt run it.
He was just showing it off.
