Newer Prelude VS Thunderbird V8
After shotting some targets, me and 4 of my buddies decided to head up to Hooters for some grub. I was praying to the car gods to make a fast car worth racing be on the freeway the same time as me. They answered with a 'modified' Prelude.
Merging onto the freeway came a white Prelude... lowered with a bodykit, dual fart cannons, and stock wheels. As soon as he got onto the freeway, I slowed down and paced him. This didnt get his attention. After we got around some traffic, and were next to eachother, I dropped it down into second and punched it. Went to click it in drive, and accidently put it into Neutral because I had my cell on the gear selecter (so I couldnt see what gear I was in..) I bet that got his attention. He quickly caught up, and began pacing us.
At about 55, I heard his H22 light up his dual carbon fiber Apexi fart cannons, and I clicked it into 3rd and punched it. He intially gained about a fender, but I gained it back as soon as I floored it. It took forever to get up to speed, because I had 4 other people in the car (probably 500 extra lbs. + me, plus my 4000lb car) By 110 we were still even. I gained maybe about a foot, but nothing to brag about. I knew he would "get me" though, because of my 117 limiter. I hit 117, and the Prelude kept goin. Well damnit. I could have probably walked him in the top end.. but oh well.. That was my fun for the night.
