Nice kill man. Yeah, I remember when I first got my licence: my friend raced me. He had 2002 Pontiac Grand AM 4 cyl ecotec and I was driving my dad's delivery Chevy Van 20 with 5.0 L V8. We both gunned it and through 1st I gained 1/2 car, 2nd - same, 3rd I pulled anothe 1/2 car on him, then we shut down because of the light. That was shitload of fun. I was amazed how he kept up with me. So I imagine how you feel. Congratulation on your first race and first victory.

aren't you on automatic 6 month probation when you first get your license? be careful racing man, if you get caught they'll take your license away for a while. don't be another statistic contributing to everyone else's insurance rates going up.

Probably because the grand prix wanted to race?

Good luck with your future races, and like everyone said, be safe and be smart

sorry to cause any confusion, maybe its just me, but, if it was something like a stock looking stealth or viper i'd understand, but a stock looking avenger?

i wouldn't rev at it unless it reved at me first , now maybe im the one whos still confused here, did you say you rev at him first or he reved at you first? and your car "is" stock, right? even sounds like stock? now why would anyone rev at it? uhhhh...

That really doesnt make alot of sense. I would race an avenger. Also, you seem to be saying that the avenger is nothing to write home about, when people rev at you and you drive a CAMRY. There is a huge difference btw a stealth and a viper too, especially considering what you drive. Those cars would kill you, while an avenger would be a closer fit. uhhhh...

an avenger is a SPORT COUPE that may be why someone would rev at him. they look sporty. hence the sport in sport coupe. id rev at an avenger before id rev at a camry.

Well yeah mine has spoiler and the real wheels on it plus its stock exhaust is pretty loud. Plus my town aint very big and alot people know about my first race against the other avenger so they prolly thought they could take me

VR43000GT · #27 12-19-2005, 05:48 PM

The dodge avenger was a good beginners choice with front wheel drive and decient saftey. When I first turned 16 I took my dads SS S10 spun out over the median into oncoming traffic(it was rainy and was rear wheel drive with 260 lb/ft torque). Just dont think something wont ever happend to you. I've known people who thought that and arent here today.

And off the subject...do you by chance live near New Ulm, Ill be heading up there soon for Christmas.

Hey grats on your first race, Just so people know im new to these forums but not new to street racing. I remember my first race, it was with my buddy back when he had an eclipse and i had a diamante. it is definately a fun thing and as you go on learning different things about racing make sure you play with different cars and learn their capabilities on the street, you would be very suprised as to what you think you can do and what you actually can do.
