I30 5spd strikes new respect
Ok this isn't an impressive kill but it sure suprised the hell of the other guy.
I'm on my way to work trying to fight the traffic to get into the slow lane to exit. When this Integra blows past on the shoulder.
When I get off the freeway and pull up to the GSX I'm thinking, what is this fool up too. But I still need to get over 2 more lanes to the left so I was gonna smoke him and get over for my turn. Well I guess he was ready for me. I had a terrible launch I wasn't sure if he was gonna do the race thing and I didn't want to make a scene in front my work to just get over to the left lane. But we are blaring up Caton Ave in Baltimore going 90 mph when I shut it down because I was about 3 blocks past my work and I was running late and he's behind me. He pulls up at the light and gives me the thumbs up and goes on his way...so I think...
He pulls up next to me in the parking garage and he's hops out of his car and I'm paranoid anyways so I'm reaching for my asp and he's like "dude what are you running in there" I tell him nothin much just a Pop and a Y pipe. He said he was shocked when my car lurched out front when we left the light. He thought for certain I was an automatic, then he heard me shift into second and bark then he heard the power surge when I power shifted into 3rd and barked again. He had V tec controller/CAI/headers. It was cool to get some respect from the tegs'. It was a nice way to start a great day at work.

Nice Kill!
I was at a stop light today, and while anticipating the light I revved my engine just a little. I then hear a really loud rev behind me, and I look back and it is a Riced out accord (I had seen it before). I thought to myself, "self, this won't be a race, but he will try to hang with me leaving the light." So, light goes green and I LAUNCH the car, LSD spinning both my bald tires all the way through the light(which actually really surprised me
), I hammer second, check the rear view......guess who had turned right....
yup, so I hauled a$$ through the intersection and wasn't even there!
