Default Big Bet

This kid i work with has a POS 88 MR2. Its one of those supercharged DOHC four cylinders. Its completely stock except for K&N and shifter, and its missing the front bumper and side skirts. The body putty and primer looks really cool though, haha. Well the moron wants to race me for a $1000. Ive seen him get on it and even my girlfriend started laughing. Just wanted to show you guys how stupid some ricer kids in st. louis can be. He's only 17 so im debating whether or not i should take his money from him.

As long as the win is a sure thing, then go for it and take the kids money. Then take that money and make your Stang even faster.

Oh and if possible give him a bit of a head start then smoke 'em

Always beware of turbo cars.

My friend chuck who's a huge mother f***er would hold the money. I think Im gonna do it. With the $2000 i would go home with I could buy an s-trim. Then I wouldnt have to be bothered with little ricer kids who think they can hang with a windsor. Ricers just dont get it do they?

This thread reminds me of story.....

I was out cruising with a buddy, in my 93, it runs 14.3's, not bad for the altitude. We get a light with a Mr2, just before the light turns, buddy waves goodbye, and then Mr2 smoked me. I was embarrassed as hell. You have too watch some of these imports, but not many!!

Your co-worker's car sounds like a POS. That shouldn't happen to you..
