Spec V
Spec V
If I had a choice to race in anything other than in a straight line, I would. It was a cold afternoon and I had just got off work. I went down town to meet up with some friends. We getting to BS'ing and its about 10 so I told them I had to leave. I hop in my black SS/SC turn the key I don't hear anything, quiet steel is doing its job. I was about on the highway on the outside of town. I had been trailing a red Spec V with Unorthodox Racing stickers on it, and a poorly alligned exhaust(The JDM thing). I was driving normal past him and he floored the 6 speed Nissan. From what I can tell he's got Underdrive pulleys(the stickers), Intake, Exhaust, and maybe a header. So I was praying to god that we could catch a light. That way it would benefit him more than me, favoring his tight gears and a 6 speed. Well luck was on my side, we caught a light. He had one passenger, and I had my AF gear.
Light goes green
First gear, roads are a little wet so traction was a huge issue. I am hitting the rev limiter in first from no traction we're dead even. I grab the GM Short throw, and give it a tug to second. Its my time to shine, right as soon as hit second I pulled 1/2 car, and I not even making 12 PSI yet. Top of second he is losing even more ground. Grabbed the shifter and went up and over to 3rd. This is when I think he gave up, or at least I hope so. By the time up to around 100 mph I had 5-6 car lengths. After that I continued on my boring ride home.
Cliff notes:
Beat a bolt on Spec V 6 Speed with only the air-box mod by 5-6 lenghts
