Race??

ok here is the deal, there is this kid at my school and he has a 4 door like 95-96 neon,lol, and it it all stock except for the fack spinner hub caps, ha ha. any ways he always says he will beat me in a race and i always tel him he is not worth the gas. Well today i was like of what ever then lets go. So we get on the high way to about 65 and i here his little 4 banger go so i just stomp on it, i go flying past his, i think his chin hit the ground lol. And after about 125 i just let off, i could see him a little in my rear view mirrow. So after i let him ceatch up, we go back to town and he decides he wants to race again on the way back, so i was like ok then, i hit it again and i pass him again. And then he call me on my cell and is like "dude pull over, there is something wrong with my car" So we pull in a parking lot, and i get out of the car and all i hear is "knock,knock,knock," Befor i could say shut your damn car off it lock up.LOL, the kid lock up his motor. That is what he gets for messing with the camaro.

Broke a rod? Nice. The best win I've seen in a long time.

ya like a dumb shit he raced his car when the temp gauge was over half. And then the rod got bent and he still drived it till we got further down the highway, that is when he called me and we pulled over. I poped his hood and antifreez was spuing out of the raditor, and the motor was hot as could be. His fault, i was nice enough to give him a ride back it to town.

i believe everything about that except when you said you let off after 125. Number 1, did you take off the speed governor? number 2, does the 305 tbi go that fast?

I wonder what made him think he could take you?

it has a diffrent prom in it, i did not put it in the guy befor me had it done, it has the givernor off, and the 305 will definently do 125, that is not that fast, and we had a wide open streatch.

i think he thought thoes fack spinners added 50hp,lol

125 is probably the max for the 305 right? I cant see it going much faster than that....

thats pretty funny that his engine seized up though.... but now he has that as an excuse....

okay, i didnt know you had a different prom chip, but i hope your tires are rated to go that fast

i am getting them changed they are michelin pilot right now. They are getting bald so i wil change them later. But i have noticed to i think my speedometer is off by 10mph or so, when i go by the speed trap things in town, it will say 35 on the sign and i look down and it says 45 on my speedometer, what is this caused from? and i know it doen not have any diffrent gears in it, the rear is tock, for now,lol

lol crappy neons lol

Could have a swaped tranny from a car with a different rear gears than you.

he can't use his engine locked up as an excuse cuz it started knocking when we were turning around, and his dumb ass kept driving on it. I did all i could i looked at it and told him he was fuck and i gave him a ride back to town,lol

Is that 125 a guess or does do you have non-stock guages cause I know the stock ones only go up to 110?

i know, it was barried, and it was probly 115 because it is like 10mph off.

Now that is a kill lol

a non governed 305 TBI is capeable of well over 125, especially with those 2.73 highway gears.

i totally have to agree with that

Why did you not race him from a stop? A race from 65 to whatever, isn't even a race...

Yeah it is.. its called highway racing..

ehhh, a kill is a kill!

Yeah it is.. its called highway racing..

That sounds safe... Why not just go find a nice neighborhood with children playing nearby?

he is the one who wanted to race on high way, so i was like what ever.

because its hard to race in a neighborhood..

ya,lol, and there is not that manny stop lights in my town, and the ones that are the speed liment is like 55 and cops love to sit there.

i almost got my 305tbi to 140 with the 2.73 gears... had a guy pacing me next to me he had a 160 speedo, i hit like 139 or 140

I just don't see the point of racing from 65, maybe from like 30 but even that isn't really racing. How many drag races do you see where they start from a roll? NONE

Thats not a valid excuse, it wasnt a drag racing, it was a street race, totally different. Alot of people want to go from a roll, and alot of people agree to it, if you dont like it, thats fine, but it happens, and alot of times too.

Damn, I get mine up to 90 and it starts shaking pretty good. If yours was the same way as mine I bet that was a hellova ride.

i have new shocks and struts but is was kinda shakey, when i get my new tires on it will be better.
