Default Results of the race

Had my race today. If you didn't read the other thread it was with the owner of this car http://www.cardomain.com/ride/372852 who basically talked mad amounts of crap about his car being able to kill v6 mustangs, camaros, firebirds, acuras, and the like. So we went to the track, race was for 1/2 mile starting from 0. We raced twice.

The first race he launched quicker than I did because I'm not as good with launching on a manual in a race, so for the first few seconds he had a nose on me, and btw, I can't believe I couldn't fly past him in first gear, throttle lag on the s197 SUCKS . Once I shifted to second at ~5500 RPM and floored it I took off past him. I was about three cars ahead of him at the end.

The second race, same thing, he launched better, but I passed him again at second gear rev, and had about 2 and a half cars on him at the end.

He said the reason he lost was because he had a bad fuel mixture in his car from filling up at the Exxon station and he needs 94 octane to make his car run at its full potential. So we're going to have a rematch on Saturday.

I don't think that by him changing his fuel
its gonna give him an extra 3 cars just to catch up to
you. But hey whatever this time see if you can get
something out of it, like gas money or anything.
"If he thinks he has a chance by gassing up somewhere else!"

Why do people insist on doing this? Yesterday I saw a Saturn Ion with one of those coffecans, making a buttload of noise.

1.Do you like the way your car looks?
2.Do you seriously think you're speed racer?
3.How much money did you spend?(Could of probably had a Mustang)
4.93 octance sticker does not make your car more intimidating
5.The sound of a weedwacker is no way,shape or form appealing to anyone.
6.Dont try to drift
7.Don't try to race old ladys in cadillacs
8. Your car is not bitchin and you'll never be paul walker.


random babble. no flaming required[8D]
