F*CKin...

i think i have bad luck, because i never seem to be able to get into a race or finish one, like that time i had a run-in with a modded v6 altima.

i'm only saying this because tonight i saw some dude in a ma70 supra sitting at a light; i was going to turn around in a gas station and go after him (we looked at eacheothers cars as i passed by) but i would have had to make a sharp turn and there was a state trooper RIGHT NEAR the entrance to the gas station.

what am i doing wrong? the kid with the mr2 that i raced in january gets a shitload more races than i do. [/rant]

Re: F*CKin...

Same shit used to happen to me when I was out looking for a race, then I stopped looking every friday night and got my first real race and even stopped to talk to the guy twice. I bet if you wait another month things will pick up because of the wheather. Also just be on the lookout, a good race will present itself when you least expect it.

Haha, no he didn't do any ricer fly by. It was a race perse, more or lesspress on the gas get a car length ahead than the other does the same thing. It was fun, both of us were laughing and having a good time. Prolly did it to scare the old ball and chain.

Re: F*CKin...

Hey dude its all good. Even though its hard for you to find a race at least you don't talk lots of crap like other people.

Plenty of people out there sit at a redlight take off fast and then claim they've beat vettes, supras, and everything else with their 100 hp car.
