I laid the smack down on some douche in a new modded GTI.
Low as ****, open DP, stance ****, rust, all the plaid VW crap.
He cut me off coming out of a parking lot. When the road split to two lanes, I got next to him. I just glared and he pretended to ignore me. We hit a light. I kept staring. Light changed, we both launched. Late in 2nd I grabbed full traction, shifted to 3rd, and handed him a bus pass; 3 of them by the end of third.

Next light he was like, damn, how much boost are you running? Told him 25psi and next time you cut some one off, make sure your car is at least fast enough to get out of the way.
He made an illegal right on red and got a red light ticket.

Night was made.

This is true as well. Often it works out that I either get some ass doing stupid moves in traffic like other people say, or I have to initiate a race. I find it entertaining that being stage 2 I have maybe only had one person out run me. It was a mustang that actually had some work done to it

Man, I am jealous of everyone getting attention lol. I have a victory red with the high rise and a Rakes Tuned sticker on my back glass (Making it obvious my car is aftermarket tuned) and I still only get attention from people who just want to see me get on it. No actual races. Just last night I had a back seat passenger of an older explorer roll down their window and just motion from me to do a burnout....on the highway...going 60 then when I held my cruise (Because I am not risking a ticket just to get on it for someone at night) they matched my speed and just held in the lane next to me for about 3 miles which was super awkward then floored it to get in front of me for their exit

A rakes tune on a m62 car isnt doing a rolling burnout on the freeway lol


I will entertain those people sometimes. I "raced" some dude in a older Prelude just because. I spun 1st, 2nd, and into 3rd all being dead even with him.
I was funny to spin 3 gears and have him still not be able to pull away. I grabbed traction in 3rd and you would have thought Ray Rice punched my trunk I took off so fast.

Waiting for some nice weather for a rematch with my buddies 16' STi. He had full bolt ons and a tune last time we ran and I drug his ass down the highway multiple times.

Over the winter he went ewg, equal length headers, bigger FP, ID1000 and an E85 dyno tune. Dynoed at 341/398. Which seems low to me but we'll see if the extra 4k+ he spent has anything me now. He's pretty confident

Sounds like too much money to still be that slow.

can't even get a race anymore. had a golf r try to run me the other night, gave him a quick hit in 3rd and he put his head down and didnt want to race after he heard my wg open.
only thing I have gotten to run lately was a 5th gen camaro, got him by about 7 cars up to 120.

I had someone try me from a light in a newer stock civic si. I didn't think anything of it in the beginning while sitting at the light he was so sneaky. When the light turned green I just took off normal and heard him spinning his tires. I got in the gas a little more in 1st after taking off chirped second and about half way through second I was about a car ahead of him. I had to left off though since there was coming up on a car that turned into my lane so I had to let off. My girlfriend was like "Was he trying to race you or something?" lol.

Last week - White STI, bolt ons, 20G swapped w/EWG - Blasted the newly installed RFL in his ear (Windows were down, timed it perfectly.. Favorite thing to do to people) as I came by him turning left. Left it in 2nd gear and waited. He took the bait and just as he was almost next to me, the hit. I hit it as soon as I heard his WG open. I spun a little and pulled a bit. Hit 3rd and ran it out to fuel cut with many car lengths between us. He was in disbelief at the next light. "WTF is that?" Facial expression for days. Nice guy though.

Today - Driving along on the highway, MMOB. I drive past this stunning 2015+ 5.0 as he merged on. 5 minutes later, this dude is running up on my ass. He gets closer and I'm watching him romping the car a bit behind me. So I figured he was game. I dropped down to 3rd and he creeps up on my bumper. He swings around me at WOT(sounded wicked, thought I was toast), trying for a fly-by. SURPRISE MFer! I was waiting for it and by the time he had almost reached my front passenger door, I had stopped his pull and started the freight train, stopping around 120ish. Dude was loving it. We ran a few more times, varying speeds all with the same outcome. Multiple cars by mid 4th. After the last run, we were pacing each other, yelling out compliments and asking about mods. Was hilarious. "That little car is a rocket! You must have sprayed me!". He was a full exhaust, intake and Lund tuned auto. Man those 5.0s sound so mean!

Well my cars still in storage but I have 3 people already trying to race me this summer. Lol.

When I was on trifecta (301whp/347wtq) I ran My friends 2004 wrx with a vf39 STI turbo and full boltons. I would put probably 1.5-2 cars on him from 60. Now that I'm term tuned (350/380) he has done a six speed swap with meth injection and a more aggressive tune. He's really confident he will beat me, not sure why.

Another guy has a mk3 supra that made 365whp on a mustang dyno supposedly.. Looked them up and they weigh 3700lbs!!!! Wow! The weight difference might make it a good race for me.


And lastly there's a gen 1 2.0t genesis that's building his engine to beat me rods and Pistons, cams and a tomei m7960 turbo is coming out this summer allegedly. Looked that turbo up its similar to a s20g I believe so he might make like 400whp
And

I'm pretty sure my buddy traded in his 13'wrx for his 16'STi just to beat me. Ended up making 10whp less with the same mods lol. And the gearing on the 6speed is awful, he shifts twice while I pull 3rd. Kills him everytime, half way through my 4th he just gives up.

In theory, even if that dyno is reading low, with him on E,I still make more hp and tq, weigh less and have better gearing. Not sure where his confidence is coming from

Lmao I love racing people that have to shift a lot while I'm just pulling third.
