POST your most SHOCKING race
Tired of seeing those win and lose threads? Now we have a most shocking race thread. Post up your stories.
Heres mine...
My most shocking race was being DEAD even until we both let off against a 95-99 Mustang GT with the 4.6 5 speed. I was like . But he was because he could not out run a 4banger. I wish I could record his face expression when I told him I was a automatic. Never told him about el turbo...why tell when I wasn't ask?
How the hell I managed to run with him...I'm still in shock. Its just da skillz. But I had my camera(video option) but I couldn't get it on the tripod before the light turned.

My best race was when I beat my friends modded RSX-S in a 2001 3.1L Automatic Malibu.
He didn't know I was spraying a 65 shot. the look in his face was priceless

Last time I street raced someone I was lucky to be alive afterwards. We left at the light and went hauling ass down Patapsco Ave and I mean HAULING ASS! My 11 second Fire Bird VS a very nasty late 90's looking Camaro with a blower hanging out of the hood. Well we fought back and forth but then he started slowly pulling on me when all of a sudden I see a van pulling from a side street and mash my brakes, the Camaro's driver didn't see him and nailed him so hard the van flipped over! The Camaro slid sideways into a row of parked cars and started to pin-wheel into 360's while smashing the cars. The van now on its side went sliding toward a bus stop full of people who wre now running for their lives and all I could do was sit there and watch. It all happened in slow motion it seems cause I can recall almost every detail about the wreck. The van hit a pole and stopped just short of the bus stop and the people came crawling out the rear doors. The Camaro had finaly stopped after about a block and a half of tearing up parked cars and the driver fell out the open window and crawled to the sidewalk. I heard sirens since it all went down right in front of the court house so I got the hell out of Dodge and took off! I went straight home and locked the car in the garage and preyed noone got my tag #.
That was the race that gave me awake up call and made me stop dead in my tracks. Racing is for the track PERIOD anything else and your looking to kill people.

My most shocking race I lost. I had a 78 Camaro w/454cid (1970 LS Motor). That car was wicked fast. I had a kid in a turbo laser pull up next to me at the stop light. The light turned green, I was rolling about 30mph, the laser was next to me. I mashed the throttle, he mashed too. He left me in his dust so fast, my jaw dropped. I never could catch up to him. I finally rolled up next to him at the next light, Looked over and just said DAM! Light changed......he bolted, I just rolled on. That race changed my mind about the potental of 4 bangers.

My most shocking.... I was just driving around after taking my girl out and this civic comes next to me at a light and starts to rev the hell out of it. I just sat back and waited for it to go green. The light changed and we went... I beat him 3 times and then he got pissed and I slowed down because there were cars ahead of us and he didn't.. He almost slammed into the first car and then the other car got run off the road. I caught up to him before the next light and I tried to ask him what the hell is he doing... But just as my window went down the light changed so I followed him. I got ahead of him then I let him go by and the second he got around me he used a smoke machine.... Yes thats right he smoked the hole road in his riced civic. I stopped following him because he was pissed and driving really bad (running people off the road, squeezing inbetween cars.) I wasn't going to get killed because of that so i left.

Seems to me, every time I see or hear about a street race, the loser is always the one that ends up driving more dangerously (I guess they have something to prove or want to get their pride back... whatever). Anyway, after I nearly sideswiped an Oldsmobile Delta 88 while me and a Corolla XRS were going at it, that woke me up. That Delta 88 is a tank, most smaller modern trucks would fear hitting one
Anyway, most shocking race was when I lined up against an '07 Civic Si. All my import-loving friends told me its VTAK would walk me once it kicked in. I was shocked at how small it looked in my rearview, and I trapped 5 MPH faster than he did. Probably a combination of no torque and crappy driver, but I was sorely disappointed in how that car pulled.

Whew the Mustang owner even though he was pissed just hung back behind me and didn't go driving insane just saw him cussing. He looked mid 40s.
I've slimmed down a lot, but I do need to stop and take it to the track.

Then I'll **** on them. GTO is just a car. There is three around here and from what I've seen they think their gods. Can't wait until they are embarrassed or wreck because they think their above the higher power.
By the way...middle 3 numbers of my plate is 666. Didn't ask for it. But they are JUST NUMBERS.
