First ever race

Ok so I've never raced before, but I was finally baited last night by an STI.

I was minding my own business, kinda in a hurry to get home and watch t.v . So I come up to an interesection pretty quick in the right lane. I pass a silver STI and then I merge off to the right to turn left at the intersection. It was late and there was no cars out so I fly around the corner and check my rear view to see the STI right on my ass. So I thought "what the hell, why not". I left the car in second, doing about 60 km/hr. He pulls up beside me, waves, and starts reving the car. I rev, he revs, then I punch it. I put a few cars on him instantly. I think I may have slightly jumped on him, and or he was in the wrong gear cause It was a slaughtering til the top of third. We quickly came up on a light where we went from a dig. Opposite story now, I spun, he chirped, and I got my ass handed to me He put a few car lengths on me. At the next light he laughed and said "that was wicked man" I gave him the thumbs up and we chatted til the light changed. We went a few hundred feet til the next light. He asked me what I had done. I said intake and exhaust and traction mod. He mentioned to me he was "bone stock". The final run we idled through the intersection at a very slow roll then punched it. This was the closest. I pulled ahead a car length, then dropped back due to me missing third (duh!). I quickly got it in and we pulled pretty evenly through third with me squeaking out the win! Yay!


He was a cool guy. We both gave each other the thumbs up as we split ways.

I would call it a draw!

I believe you but of course the AWD drive gods will be very upset that AWD never loses. That STi has no more power stock then you do slightly modded.

Haha yeah.

Well the first roll I dont think was too fair a start, I won. The dig, he won (slaughtered me). The last roll I won, but it was close.

hahah no it wasn't. It fell off the day before! Although I do blame me missing third on the fact that the plastic piece was missing! It feels wierd now! (In all seriousness though, lol, I just need the driver mod.)
