Post 1st kill since new motor.(Not much to brag about but he was just begging for it)

On the way to work the other day this civic pulls next to me and floors it. I just ignore him and go on about my business and a couple minutes later he does it again. Once again I ignore him. 2 or 3 min's later he comes up beside me, smiles and takes off again like he is trying to prove something. He has the fart pipe and it sounds like a pissed off bumblebee. Anyway I just ignore him again until he gets about 2 or 3 car lengths in front of me and I figure what the hell, so I nail it and I don't even down shift and I go sailing by him.
He pulls up to me and yells (holey $hit that car is fast and gives me a thumbs up). I wonder how he would feel if he knew I did not even down shift.

What was he thinking!

First kill, not really worthy but a kill nonetheless.

O-yea, I love the new motor. I don't care much for the c-4 though, it is nice but I am turning about 3000 to 3500 rpm's at 60mph.

It does not feel as fast with the c-4 but I can see the mph come up a lot faster than it did with the 302 and t-5.

The traction is great, at least with the nitto drag radials, the tires don’t even feel like they are spinning but when I look behind me there are two solid black tire marks.

I can’t wait to get a real race. I am going to the track soon I hope, so I will let everyone know how it goes.
