Subaru SVX race...

So im coming home from NJ...Im at a toll booth..I have ez pass...and next to me is a subaru SVX...I never see them so i roll down my window and ask the guy if he wants to go... hes like ''Dude...Thats a camry...I will smoke you...'' So I go ''Wait for me in the booth'' ( His line was movin a little faster ) So he does ( There is noone behind him...) We both start out slow..Not racing... He goes '' Third honk on me '' I wait...On the third honk we go...He is pulling about 2 cars on me til about 50...then I pulling him in...at 70 we are even...My 4 speed auto shifts into 4th..I pass him...Im about 1 car on him and now he is coming up again...So i turn over drive off (Button on my shifter) and im keeping him at 1 car...I get up to 85 (Was going 75 in 4th)And turn overdrive on...Now im getting him...I pulling up to 100...im about 2 cars on him....then i slow down...He pulls up next to me and goes ''You runnin stock?'' I go ' Hell yeah its a camry'' He goes ''Im stock too!'' I go ''You wanna run again?'' He is like '' I got 3 miles till my exit...Lets go'' So I honk off this time...We run even till 85...I take overdrive off and its about the same...Im pulling 2 cars on him over 90...He gives me thumbs off and gets off his exit..Cool guy..Nice race...I woun't consider it a kill...

No offence, but you barely beat a mid - high 15 second car that usually traps below 90 mph.

And you're saying "Eclipses are slow"

Re: Subaru SVX race...

Yeah, but don't bring that to this thread. Just leave it at the old thread. If you want to take it up with him, do it back in the other thread. I read it, and obviously he doesn't know how to hold his tongue. Leave it at that.

As for ricesucks, I've seen those Subs and have always wondered what they were made of. Good kill. Glad to know he was cool with making another run. Most guys don't like to lose more than once. Late...

yeah and good idea to race out of a tollbooth expect a nice picture of you street racing to come in in the mail accompanied by a ticket.

Re: Subaru SVX race...

Wow...people must be in exceedingly bad moods this time of year...I know I went through my phase a couple days back with that SRT-4 crap...back on topic, it's a shame those SVXs aren't faster than they are, because they are really attractive cars...good kill.

Re: Subaru SVX race...

I doubt your gonna get a ticket for racing from teh toll booth. The cammeras are set up to catch people who don't pay, not racers. As long as they paid, I doubt they have anything to worry about.

Re: Subaru SVX race...

Well i gotta step in here because i owned a 1992 SVX LS-L for a while. The beauty of those cars isn't in straightline performance, its in the balanced handling and well-sorted suspension of the car. It makes enough power to get up and go, (230 hp, 227 lb tq), but they weighed in at 3600+ lbs...

Good kill nevertheless, just thought i'd tell you a lil somethin about the car. Theres pictures of it on my "homepage" in my profile...

Nice, pretty sexy car. I've always liked them since I saw one in Provo. Late...
