Me vs "SC" 2.2 balt

So, down in Zanzibar, looking for some fresh fruit to make a blended smoothie. I was driving back to the plane when I found a cobalt sitting in a parking lot. It looked like a 4 door SS, so I thought, cool! I'll talk to him, and it'll be awesome!

I roll up, and he tells me how he's SC, and it's an LT, and challenges me to a race. kinda talking **** about how his engine's bigger, and he had a professional build it.

This is how it went down.

First race, I lay on it hard. Good launch, good shift into second...Crud. Where'd this guy go? Oh. He's about 7 cars back.

Second race. I give him the hit and launch soft. After first gear I'm out front again, and end of second, he's disappearing again.

Ok. time for some investigation.

I ask him to pop, he won't pop. I ask him how much boost he's pushing...no clue, Ask him what SC he has...iono....I ask him who did the work, his neighbor. The car is not even tuned. stock injectors....And it's an Auto...

What a crappy race. Big let-down. I've met someone else who may be promising tho...

Nope. Never heard it. I was thinking I hadn't heard it while we were driving through the quiet Zanzibar town, but it didn't really raise a red flag until I started the first race.

He probably wanted to see what your car would do and figured you wouldn't bother if his was "just" a 2.2

no, was posting a race against a poser. the focus of this was not on the car, rather the jackass owner. He clearly wasn't posting to brag about beating a base Cobalt.

lol why is the war stories section full of retards like this? ^^^

what is with everyone taking posts personaly and critisizing a racing story when it's not a bugatti veyron or a ******* ferrari racing? lol

maybe some people like hearing about ******* losers driving **** boxes getting reality checks when they get their doors blown off. if you don't then GTFO of the war stories section..
