2.2L goes down

Predictiable outcome I suppose but it was still fun.

I was on the way to work in the morning and I see a black Cobalt behind me. He stays there for several kms. Trafffic was pretty light and the orad is an 80km speed limit. (thats about 50mph)

So the whole time I was like, race me! Well we come up ot thelast set of lights before entering the freeway---it goes red and the 2.2L swings to the right lane.

Now this lane ends up ahead so I know we are going to race. I put her down in low and roll the windows downa crack.

Light goes green---I immediatly pulled ahead and kept pulling on him as the speed/revs climbed. I am pretty sure he let off about 50km/h--he knew he was beat.

Not too sure but it might have been an auto. Thats my exciting (sarcasam added) story.

I don't dispute the drive factor at all. As long as people come clean and admit they won and tht might be a factor as to why they won

Say I race IROC-Z 350--he ***** up---I am not gonna go arouind bragging that 2.4L SS autos are faster then IROC-Z 350's. Thata pure lie and if you think that way your an idiot poser.


I'll say I won the race cause he fucked up is all.

But the fact is I have more hp and similar weight--the car that has those to factors (or more weight and tons more hp) is the faster car period. Drive ***** up---he looks like an ass.
