Thumbs up It took two years and a new car but revenge is sweet!

I raced a mid 90's turbo 300zx a few years ago in my old gt stang and the guy put a real hurt on me, it was definately modded! Well since i've had my cobra for a year now i've been keeping an eye out for him. well i finally got lucky. I was turning left and low and behold he was right behind me. i recognized the car immediately! so once we turned he was right on my ***, so i nail it! my car gets all twisted up left lane, right lane, shift to second and still sliding side ways! so i back out of it. we roll up the street a little further and stage our cars next to each other at like 25-30mph roll. i left my car in 2nd as 1st would be a tire burner! we hit it and are dead even until about 60mph. i started pulling away hard, i shift to 3rd at 70mph and have a good car length on him start going through third until about 85mph and had like 2 cars on him. We had to shut down as there was to much traffic and it was getting dangerous quick. Plus now i was late for work We slowed down and he asked what i had! i said chip,pulley, exhaust! his expression was priceless! Obviously he had a few more mods than that So we gave each other thumbs up and went our ways! It was cool finally seeing and beating him! revenge is sweet!

Good kill! Revenge is always sweet....but especially if you have to wait for it.
I bet your heart was going 100mph before the race even started

Nice, Those TT 300Z's can be pretty quick.

Ahhh thats a nice one! Especially after 2 years. Too bad you didnt get to talk to him and tell him you ran him a few years ago. Sounds like thats a seriously fast 300Z hes got there too.
Damn I gotta get a newer fast car!

Thumbs up

Oh yes. I think most of us have a list of cars we'd like to get a revenge on. Good kill. Now I'm inspired.

Thanks guys! we raced right in front of my work! everyone was watching/listening! I was now late for work because of the race so i couldn't talk to much! If i had to guess i would say he had a high 12 sec. car, so he probably doesn't lose alot of street races I think i could have beat him worse had i been able to stick it in first. I usually don't shift out of 1st until around 50mph! I just rolled into second and still pulled away from him I need drag radials bad! For some reason my stock F1's are bald in the back and look good in the front it was a fun race and it felt dam ood finally gettin payback
