Wow! It was an amazing night!
It begins:
8:30 Gettin the munchies, decide to start the sunfire up to go to the store.
8:35 Meet a friend at store, decide to cruise around before food.
<fast forward>
9PM Make a left and stop at the light when a suped up Ford Focus (dont laugh) pulls up. We hit it off right away. He had about 1 second start and it was about a 300m straight set then sharp 30km/h turn (you can hit it faster around 50km but thats pushin it). He leads into the turn so I figure it's all over. I take a look how far ahead I am and what do I see in the rearview? Why it's mister doctor in a Carrera. We both hit it hard, but being the showoff he is, he toys with me... I wave him past me and we're riding side by side. I nearly creamed my pants to say the least, a very exhilerating experience for a new driver. So I speed up and he turns.
<food time>
On the way home, I drop my buddy off. Make a right and who pulls up? Grand Prix GT. We line up, him, his friend (didn't catch the make of car), and me. Light turns green, but a new car just turned and he's smack in the middle... nonetheless like an idiot this cuts his friend off and we hit it pretty hard. 100m straight then a left curve followed by a right. We came pretty much dead even. Uh oh. Another light. He rolls the window down and says "Round 2" Light goes and we blaze it! I get an amazing start and bang. I won. Wow. Too. Great. A. Feeling. :smoka:

See you think a Grand Am is all balls over a Sunfire...he's claiming he beat a Grand Prix GT which is all balls over a Grand Am....maybe the other person was a really bad driver?

I'm pretty sure it was mostly luck too.... but either way he wasn't a top notch driver (like me:rolleyes: (sorry, couldn't help but get cocky))
