I actually won holycow!!!

Last night coming home from work I notice these blue turn signals flying up the freeway behind me so I pull to the side to get of the way (I need to get off the freeway anyway to get home). Then to my surprise the blue lights pull in behind me and full up to the first light where he lines up with me. Its some young kid 16 maybe 17 in a in a very nice EG. So he starts making all kinds of noise, getting high up in the RPMs and I anwser only to feel like a dork when I discover my car is burning mad oil. Blowing a lot of smoke when I rev. Anyhow we are both sitting on the throttle hard at this point the light turns green I drop the clutch and leave this kid way behind me until 3rd gear when he catches up with me. Then he did something I was not expecting at all he actually asked me if I want to trade. I am sure he would not really want to if he knew I only had 2.25 custom stock looking exhaust and an intake. But it was a hell of a complement, which I declined. It was only the fourth actual street race I was in and my second win, first win against an RX-7 like 90, and two loses to one to an Accord the other to a supercharged Sonoma. But a win is a win and I guess I can put another sticker on my car....JK What a rush.

Hey, Movin'!
Congratulations. I don't actually know what kind of a car an EG is, though.
I'm willing to race you, but since I only have the stock D15, you need to let me choose the terms. I want to race around a mall parking lot..IN REVERSE!
I AM THE REVERSE KING!
Flunky
PS-Most I ever did in reverse was five miles at 50 MPH in a rented dodge stratus. I really wanted to pass a farmer in his pickup, but the road was empty and the car started to overheat. It was great! 6,500 RPMs, screaming, going backwards...calmly. I got that mirror action down!
PPS-The TRUE reverse King is Bryan Corn of San Marcos, TX.

High Stakes

After reading how knowledgeable you were on turbocharging setups and swaps, I assumed you had a turbo B-series.
Ok, I'm up for it.
I'll be in Albuquerque this Sunday afternoon, 5PM at 1600 Fifth St. NW.
Flunky
PS-Let's establish the stakes: We race for...whatever change is in the ashtray.
PPS-I have DPFI, too. Sounds like a fair match.
