today i was on i-90 goin towards AMC in barrington (IL). i was racing a friend of mine in his Si and another buddy in his celica gt. i was borrowing my sisters 2000 automagic civic ex...i know its a dog off the line...but i was leading the pack most of the way...the si driver was giving me madd props. he was like damn i had a tough time catching you for an ex. he has ihe on his si too. the gs-r was following me inching up on my tail from like 2 lengths behind, but he couldn't catch me...i was so suprised. even when i hit 100 and the auto shifted to 4th he was just inching. i think he can't drive. or it could have just been a weak part of his powerband which i doubt. oh the auto celica was very similar in power to my car, but he backed off. i guess its a lot about ***** too.

why bs?

why would i lie? its kinda pointless...i was jus telling u guys what happened. i know it seems hard to believe but thats why i posted it. i think the guy with the integra had his car in like 5 or something because he wasn't gainin on me. but i couldn't hear his car because he looked bone stock except clear corners. but my buddy with the si did say i was tough to catch, probably cuz i did a ricer fly by before he knew what hit him. his car is decent, he ran a 15.3 at great lakes dragaway in WI.

werrrrd

This reminds me of the time I was out rollerblading in my TT skates and this guy in a Viper started to rev his engine on me, so I chirped the wheels on my blades and gave it a go, he got a better start and jumped out in front 5 car lengths, I was thinking quickly and started throw off my clothes to reduce weight and drag... And what do ya know, i started to pull on him HARD... that dude was amazed and gave me mad props because he said he never lost to roller skaters before, only bicyclists and guys on skateboards..

automatic 17-18 sec EX auto ahead of a 15-16 sec SI and a GSR? Did the other guys forget they were driving 5spds and left it in first or what?

hey, since we are bein just a little bit off topic, i was watcing tv one day and this man made a motorized rollerblade skate. one samll tank, a little less then half a gallon, would take him 100 miles, thought it was pretty cool. i just dont remember how he controlled it....

yes!

There it is....classic BS flag!

So why WOULD you lie about this? I mean come on guy a 120hp Civic EX vs a GSR with 170hp and an SI with 160hp---both 5spds and your killer auto Civic EX? God I can't stop laughing. I think you thought you were racing them and they were just keeping pace with traffic. Just because you have to floor that thing to pass someone does not mean its a race

I would like to apologize to you for the bs flags that i raised. The reason for doing it was because someone asked. I did not doubt what you had said in anyway. I hope you can understand that. I don't call anyones bluff unless i know thats the way it actually happened. So cheer up
