Post Im still shaking too..1st corvette kill!!

Im so excited i cant even eat , first i was on my way to taco bell, when i see a red integra on my a$$, then he pulls along side and i give it some gas, then he jumps up and goes, and pretty fast i evened out with him until i hit traffic and he didnt have anyone in front of him, so he flew bye, i was mad and have to accept that as a loss.

Ok here it gets good, so im pulling out of the drive thru in taco bell, then i see this beautiful white vette about 93-96 waiting to turn behind me, i pull out and he instantly takes off around me doing a fly bye, so i make chase and catch up, (after the integra incedent i was pissed) and then i see the light go yellow, we both coulda made it but we knew why we were stopping, he had a passenger, after exchanging revs the light goes green, i launched hard as my poor radials would allow, and i heard his tires scream a little, i had him about 10 foot from my back bumper, when i hit 2nd i thought he would start pulling, but surprisingly i pulled even further, then i chirped 3rd and maintained then i hit the brakes about 80mph i was done he slowed, i was talking mad Sh*t like "wheres your fly bye now huh? throwing my arms up, then he turned off into a residential area

I am so happy with my car! i cant wait until mods go on, and this really helped because i was depressed over the integra race, but too bad i could'nt wax his as$ from a light too.

My best kill ever, even better than the motorcycle

skyman inspired the title topic lol, because that explained it when i was posting, i was shaking and couldnt even eat.

But im thinking that integra had n20, or maybe im trying to make myself feel better, cuz no integra ever kept up like that one did.

I had no problem eating the vette though I was shifting at 5500rpm, on the stock tach whatever that would be.

Yeah, shaking and can't eat, that's how I felt a few weeks back whaen I edged a BMW Z-3 M by about a half a length. That was on a Sunday morning no less. I just said a little prayer of thanks. I still get excited over that one after maybe a month.

Was the first race really a loss? You said you were with him unit you hit traffic. He kept going b/c he didn't have traffic in his lane. I wouldn't call that a loss. No need to go cutting other drivers off or anything.
I would've let him go also. No need for stupidity.
Good Job!
