On way to work this morning, half asleep and out of the blue I hear a Honda screaming up behind me, sure enough it's our little teg.
Got right up next to me at the lights and starts revving his engine, I noticed a cop sitting up the road so I just drove off normally and he accelerated hard, chirped second and cut infront of me... I was like okay... Followed him for a little to a set of lights, nobody around. Perfect.
Rolled down my window to hear "that chevs pretty slow isn't it" and then laughed, I just nodded and told him I should get a carbon gas cap like him, maybe it'd be a racecar then.
didn't like that Haha
Light turned green and it seemed like we both got a perfect launch, I nls into second, still pretty even, maybe had a bumper on him, he hit rev limiter going into 3 and I took about half a car on him, I let off going into 5th and he did the usual losers fly by, spitting blue smoke and all.
Just now I get a message on Facebook saying his clutch was slipping and to line him up in a week when it's fixed hahahahahaha
Two dead slow cars but it was still fun, need to get myself into a lsj after this summer I think.

Poweshifting on a car that isn't really designed for it takes some really big ***** and a more "**** ups" than I want to put on my own tranny. I wouldn't recommend doing it.

lol vids for proof. 13's stock for an SI my ass lol with DR's maybe. powershifting isn't going to save you a full second on your ET. most run 15's in stock trim.
and that's when I traded in my SI civic..also a 2000 model.... For the cobalt
