A few good races

Dark_5.0 · 03-22-2003, 11:51 AM

I raced a dark purple/black cobra 94-98 body style a couple of times from a roll and each time put about a car on him and shut down. He at least had gears and exhaust.

I then had a regretable race with a red SS camaro with the tail pipes pointing to the sides. He kept trying to go from a roll but when I would match his speed I was at 5000 rpms in 1st (not good)... So I sped up to try and go from a second gear but evidently he wasnt having it. So I went ahead and went from a 5000rpm roll in first I immediately had to shift and he pulled a car on me as soon as I caught traction in second I started reeling him in but he shut down just as I was about to pass him. So I had one drivers error loss (nice kill who ever you are).

At the next light it was me, a white 5.0,and the red camaro. I raped both of them off the line and shut down in second gear with a 2-3 car lead. B)

Nice kills

I got stuck racing a 96 Cobra from a 40 roll, too high for first and way too low for second, same thing happened to me But I tried him from second gear. He just started walking away from me till my Rev's came up. but then he shut down, Agravating but I bit and it's my fault.

Keep up the kills

Hey man nice to hear from you aquaman. I finally ran into one of those freak LS-1's, absolutely bone stock he ran a 13.3 @ 107mph I think it was an 02' camaro SS. Let me tell you that is absolutely unheard of around here cause we are at 3000ft.

Later,

No not yet, I hate to admit it but the reason I havent installed my O/R X-pipe is cause my car keeps having to go into the shop.

First my abs sensor went out and I had a dash light on all the time. Then my a/c clutch and idler pulley had to be replaced. Now my throw out bearing is squealing.

I am trying to find someone that wants to come to my house and swap rear ends with me. My IRS for there 8.8 GT rear.

I am not at all happy with the reliability I have gotten with this car so far.

This Friday I am racing a guy here at work that has a 99 Trans AM automatic with 3 inch exhaust.

Hopefully I will have another kill to post
