another fun night at the races

well the racing season ended on a fairly good note on friday night, it was one of the most fun nights ever. at the local strip, known simply as "the highway", i rolled up there in my 90 laser turbo, my friend with an old school b16 hatch, and a low 13 second caprice. first off, i raced the guy with the b16 hatch; it was a really good race as i beat him by less than half a car length. then i raced a z24, easy victory. then i rolled up to an infamous turbo saturn, that car is notorious for blowing the doors off of unsuspecting cars every weekend. well i pulled next to him anyway, he dropped it into second so i did the same, we hit it and surprisingly i was beating him for a while. he mustve had one of those monstrous gt-series turbos, cuz i could hear that thing spooling over the sound of my engine or exhaust, it was just dominant. right about when i hit 4th gear, at about 90 mph, he blew right by me like i was standing still. thats not all though, on the way back me and the guy in the hatch pulled next to a white late model firebird, im not sure but i think it was a v8, it sounded pretty damn mean. after we all got even with eachother, we just punched it and took off; me and the hatch left the firebird in the dust. i know that some of you guys hate street racing, but i just do it once in a while.

Sounds like fun. Glad you didn't die.

I didn't know anyone would bother with a turbo saturn...do they even make internals for those things? :lol:

that is all in good fun. just don't get caught :)

im sure they do make aftermarket internal parts for saturns; those engines arent very relaiable for everyday use, much less with a big turbo on it

you can get aftermarket internals for any car if you're willing to have the engine apart for awhile.

i want a 1G awd for a sleeper...! lol nice kill....

i want an awd 1g too. im sick of either smoking the tires or dealing with tire lag in 1st gear.i think maybe new tires will help a little, since my tires spin in 2nd gear when the turbo spools up sometimes

oh yeah, i meant turbo lag lol

just don't get caught
In Texas they impound your car and you dont get it back if your doin 60 over the speed limit. Racing has taken a plunge down here...damn state troopers! On a good note my N/A 91 Laser, whooped a n/a saturn, a LUV truck and a N/A 240sx...maybe they miss shifted?lol
