my 2nd 3rd and 4th races w/ls swap

[g-ride-si]

Last night i was driving to the street races and an older(late 80s early 90s) rx 7 non-turbo(lookks really good) pulls up next to me and bounces it off the rev limiter. Ive raced this guy before but without my new motor (previous race i won but it was only through second gear) so anyway i'm at about 4 grand in 3rd gear, i tell him to go whenever hes ready so he drops into 2nd (damn rotaries) at im guessin around 6000 rpm and takes off so i just nail it in 3rd and im next to him then i hit fourth and pull pretty good by about 80mph he was a good 3-4 cars back.

3rd race 98 camaro rs v6 5 speed cold air, and flowmaster exhaust. we are sitting at a light and hes just staring at me so i rev a little and he revs back. light turns green and he gets the jump, i chirp 2nd and im passing him got him by about 2-3 cars at the end of 3rd. his passenger throws a thumbs up and a peace sign out the window and they turn at the next light.

4th race 99 civic si i/h/e lowered on rota circuit 8s looked good
He asks what i got i tell him b18 and ask him he said stock with i/h/e he tells me he wants to run i say ok we go on three honks in first gear 5mph roll. we held even til 3rd gear and i prolly got his front bumper even with my door.. cops ahead slow down race over.

all in all it was a fun night raced some kinda 4 door on the highway on the way home and it beat me dont know what it was...kinda looked like a jag but i dont know

sounds great dude! 3rd gear is what 80mph with a LS? anyways.. stay safe and be cautious man, ur gettin uh lil crazy

[g-ride-si]

ya the top of 3rd is pretty close to 80 but i only got 14 in wheels on the front cuz everything else i got is bald so its around 75 now but ive been shifting around 6000rpm cuz i dont want to blow it up and i think 6000 is around peak hp and i think tq is peak at 5000 rpm so it works pretty well like that. Im pretty cautious about racing although i have been goin a little nuts i gotta quit tho cuz gettin 25mpg SUCKS!

Thanks Amy you know ill call if i need any help. You guys rock.
