first race=first loss

So i raced my friend in my parents 1987 3.0 liter 6 cylinder turbodiesel mercedes wagon and he was is in his modern v6 jetta.
We jumped on it at the same time as we got on the highway and the farthest he got away was 2-3 buslengths we went to about 110-115.
I am suprised he didnt just disappear forever so i guess chalk one up for a learning experience(aka a loss)

:lol:


Well, what did you expect to happen?

well i had expected to lose but you know i hung in better than i thlought i would
he got to speed faster but i probably could have kept on rolling to 125 or 130

I'm not sure if 110-115 is the smartest thing to do so soon in your license and car career

But hey, at least your car is somewhat related to one of the greatest MB cars of all time, the DTM Mercedes Benz 190E 2.5-16 Evo II. :thumbsup:

:spit: lmao..thats funny... to get beat by a jetta by 3 bus lengths :rofl:

i'm sorry i dont usually laugh at people, but next time awards come out, can we nominate him for having the slowest driveable car on af?

:lol: ok i quit, its still fun to race no matter what your in, but be carefull about going so fast so early...but at the same time have fun, just be carefull

That would be like me saying my car is related to the E46 GTR or CSL. In theory...yeah, but c'mon.

:lol: or like my saturn being related to the c6 z06, both by GM, but seriously...

No, you're saturn is a lot further away from the ZO6 than his 190D is from the DTM, but whatever, I was just trying to make him feel better.

Are there any tuners that do diesel? I mean, in Europe they're pretty popular....I would think someone would realize the potential market.

true but at least im not a ricer about it

very true...no hard feelings for the laugh, its not you that lost its just the car you were in.
you can laugh at me for loosing to a integra in my vr4 if you will. thats something to laugh about!

That race was to be kind of expected.

Young, how did you lose to an integra? Mechanical failure, personal failure or was it just very well modded Honda?

only for trucks onfortunately i asked gale engineering but they will have nothing to do wuth it

true but at least im not a ricer about it then again i could blame it on dirty fuel filters or i could say he caught me off boost:iceslolan














but that would make me a ricer since neither of those happened
and i think if we were in equal cars i might of won

he was modded, and even with a turbo kit i was still beating him by 2-3 car lengths until he actually used his nitrous on the street and passed me up by 2 car lengths

to quote my friend "You're crazy as shit!'

I wanna say I'm gonna do something, and one my buds to go "are you outa your fucking mind?" Then I would totally do what I said I was gonna do, so that they could go "you really are outa your fucking mind!"

are you outta your fucking mind?
