First Race

My first race was tonite, i was running only a quarter tank, so i thought it would be a good night to finally run someone. I went downtown, looking for some one to race, then i park my car at the mall, and while i'm walking inside(hungry), i see a honda accord driving in, the i notice its my friends old car(he recently sold it), and i talk with the guy for a bit. This kid(same age as me, but acted much younger), was so happy he could race, i could tell 2F2F was his favorite movie. We find a nice 4 lane road, and his passenger gets out and starts the race. I had my worst launch, even though i've been practicing, and so does he, i spun my tires way to much. At the start, he takes me, mostly because i had to shift first, then as soon as i hit 2nd, i real him, pass him, then shift to third, i had 1 car length on him, when i hit 4th, and we were done. It supprised me actually, since he has a bigger motor, 2.2 vs 2.0, and his exhaust is cut off, where as mine is stock, and he has a CAI, where as mine is stock. The guy was nice after his lose though, and i went home, heres the stats.
'91 eagle talon n/t esi
5-speed, completely stock
'92 accord EX 2.2 liter
5-speed, straight pipe exhaust, CAI.

Nice kill. Whatever happened to eating? I guess you had a hunger for a kill? Anyway, good job, hope to hear more stories in the future. Late...

hmm, how can you say that when your car barely runs 15's?? I'm happy with my car, and only got it because i couldn't afford insurance on a TSI. At least my car looks good, unlike a taurus.

Re: First Race

your car probably doesn't even run 16's, and in my opinion, my car looks good

Nice races, even if they werent 11 second runs it was still fun, and i think that is the whole point of street racing.
