The Never Ending Race Thread

[-Jayson-]

i was thinking this might be fun, lets make a thread and see how big we can make it. This thread is to post small little races that you wouldnt think would deserve a thread of its own, but still worth mentioning for the fun of it. Try and post atleast 2-3 small races a week here to keep it alive. I got 2 to start off, both these races happened on the highway, same part too.

Ok so 2 nights ago im headed home from work, im going onto I-94 i see a new Pontiac G6 coupe, so i pass it kinda hard trying to get a race. he follows me onto the on ramp tailgating me the whole time. As soon as i hit the straight away and he is their too, i wave to him over my shoulder and punch it. Needless to say i left him in my smoke cloud.

Other race was with a Mustang GT, 2000+. Same road, im cruising down doing about 65ish, i pass a Mustang GT getting onto the freeway, i see as soon as he can he punches it and takes off screaming towards me. Well ive always wanted to play with a mustang at high speeds (late night, open 4 lane freeway) so i punch, he catches up to me when im doing about 80MPH, i kept it floored all the way to 105MPH my speed limit, the whole time we were neck and neck. Dead even, just like my other 2 mustang GT races.

Anyone else got some small races to talk about?

This is a pretty cool idea..I hope the mods agree. I have lots of small races that aren't quite good enough for their own thread:

Friday night after my official races..I played around with a dude in a red automatic 350z. We messed around from a couple lights. But at one light we got serious. He looked over and nodded, I nodded back and revved it. He nodded. Light turns green..we both took off and ran neck and neck. It's like we came off the line even and continued on dead even until about 80mph where I shut it down. Afterwards I spoke with him at another light and he asked me what I had done and I told him I was stock..he was like 'damn those are faster than i thought'.

Saturday some talon thing followed me..it was turbo because he kept making his BOV pop at me. Light turned green..I left him behind about 3 cars back. But damn his car was screaming like hell. I thought it was right on my ass and then I look in my rearview mirror and he was way back.

I beat a stock 86 mustang. That was nothing special.

I ignored some Nissan SE-R thing to race a WS6..needless to say he handed me my ass. Don't know what he had done.

And that's all.

Lets see how long it takes to become a flame war..

I've only ben in one race (not for lack of looking though), I beat a civic on the Highway in the 3000GT I had, wooo go me!

[CivRacer95]

I raced the only two GLX VR6's in the valley. A black one and a red one. Sadly, I was beaten by them horribly. They just walked away from me . One of lifes lessons: DON'T PICK AT ANYTHING BIGGER THAN YOU ARE! . But I'd rather not get into any details on that . L8...

[Underground_Killah]

i beat a stock corolla with only a fart can

i played with a v6 stang, but wasn't much of a challenge


besides that, not much really here

[Aerowitz]

Beat a Fiero and an Accord LX in the rain this morning.
Beat a Mustang on gravel roads after school.
Beat a 240SX on the highway coming home a few hours ago.

I can't wait to see what the mods say about this thread.

Beat two teenagers in an extended cab Z71 last week. I would just let them line up with me, let them start, then own them about 2 trucks, then let off and let them try again. Boring....

Shame, shame! Picking on your brothers!

I dont really street race, but a couple months ago I kept one of my friends at college from passing me. He's got a 2000 extended cab Dakota, 4.7L V-8, flowmasters. I drive a 1992 regular cab full size Chevrolet, 350, minor bolt ons.

He's always bragging about how good his truck runs and how if he ever got behind me he'd "pass me where he caught me", lol. Well, he got behind me, right up on my ass, we both gun it (in our words "Our feet were through the fire walls") from about 55-60 mph roll. We both shut down at about 105 or so. He never gained an inch, I never pulled an inch. I was almost suprised, becuase my truck is a couple hundred pounds heavier and rated about 20 hp less (from the factory). I still rub it in that he couldn't pass me (actually, I say "Man, you couldn't even swing out to try and pass me!")

Then like over a year ago, I had the same thing happen with a 2001 or so extended cab Z-71, only he was able to swing out to try and pass, just couldn't complete it (got to like my back tire and our straight stretch ran out, probably going 85-90). I didnt have any bolt ons at that time, so I think now he probably could'nt even get to my back tire.

Anyways, I very rarely do any street racing (mainly becuase I drive a 4WD truck with no major modifications). Now racing at the track is a different story (just not in the truck)!

One time I pulled up to a red light after leaving work, and it had been a long day so I was in a bit of a hurry to get to my girlfriend's house. As I pulled up to the light I saw a white BMW 325, but had other things on my mind and forgot about it. So when the light turned green, me being in a hurry, I stepped on it kinda hard. A few seconds later I hear a roaring engine and just see this white streak fly by. It was pretty awesome.

I used to have an old 63 Dodge Polara 4 Door "bondo buggy" it was a tan car with red, black, and gray primer sprayed all over, it really did look sad, it had 108K on it's stock 383 and burned 2qts of oil a week, I bolted on a 400 4bbl intake and carb and a set of headman headers and dual exhaust and everythime I got into it it would smoke like the dickens when decellerating, but other that that it ran pretty good, just keep it filled with cheap oil!

One day we (The wife was with me) were toying around with a mid to late 70's Z-28 with 2 teens in it, we pulled up to a light and the guy in the Z pulls up beside me and honks and the passenger rolls down the window and shouts, "Why do you go and do us all a great favor and get that POS off the road!" I looked at him and said "Tell you what, you beat me to the next light (2 blocks away) and I'll let you follow me directly to the closest wrecking yard and I'll leave it and you can drive us home! Deal?" The guy driving says, "You got it asshole, your toast now!" The wife looks at me and said "You better kick his ass good, we don't have another car". The light turned green and we took off, he did get the hole shot but his advantage was very short lived as the old Polara started getting in it's stride and walked right by the Z, I had 2 cars on him by the first block and was still pulling away, I get halfway down the next block and bail out of it. (Of course emitting a smoke screen!) We stopped at the next light and I rolled down the window again and yelled over "Gee, maybe I should be the one following YOU to the wrecking yard!" The wife was rolling she was laughing so hard.

I was driving home from school and this dude in his F-350 turbo diesel work truck tried to keep me from passing him in the other lane...I floored it for like 2 seconds and I blew past him pretty bad.

[ZackKVtec]

i pulled up to a newer celica gt-s on the highway at about 80. i looked at him then floored it, but i just walked away, after that i just follwed him going like 110 for a while. ps. what a weird driver
celica driver: weaves through traffic, catches up to me, passes me on right, i pull up to him, rev, take off, he doesnt... he proceeds to pass me later and go 110-115 for a while for no reason

[Thourun]

So how do you know he was even trying?

[ASTAutoSales]

my saturday night had a good kill

1st kill 1996 chevy ext. cab z-71, we were following behind him he went over 3 times left of center like he was going to pass someone in front of him but nobody was there, i flip on the L.E.Ds and he knows we want to play, he floors it and gets the jump, it takes about that long to get on his ass, he leads us out to a county road outside of town. we hit the twisties at about 90 and the first one he cant keep it on the road due to the previous afternoon sprinkles. he banks it. hooked him up and he later blew a .22
