My first "race"

It was a dark and dreary night and I was headed home in a spirited fashion to not miss curfew. I see someone coming on my fast left side and gun it when they get to my rear door. They pull till my nose is at their passenger door and as I pass I notice that a young male is driving with an equally young female in the front seat. I can tell he is going to want to play after I pass him. Side note: there was light traffic and yes I slowed down till open stretches appeared. So I keep trucking till I have about 2 busses on him and resume driving normally. He proceeds to pass me at a fair rate of speed(aka velocity if your a physics nerd) It is at this point I can read his badges and hes got a 2000ish two door civic. After giving chase and pacing him we take off and I put about 3 car lenths on him till 80-90 when I take my exit home. So I had a real race and I am surprised at the pickup my car has at 60-70 around where I am going from 3rd to 4th my top gear till I get a tranny swap.
The End!!

Re: My first "race"

Whow dude I can tell your excited.
Its kinda hard to read but yeah, nice race.

was the civ modded in any way from what you could tell?

be safe man, I remember my first race.....oh wait....no I dont actually, but Im sure I wrote it up all scrambled up some where.
anyway the point is be carefull. races can turn ugly quick. its a risk we all know and take all the time.

Re: My first "race"

I am pretty sure the Civic was stock. I couldnt hear his car over my rusted out downpipe which makes my car sound kinda like a 2-stroke.
