    Default Street Victory

    Yeah, I know its not legal, can be dangerous, and I haven't been into this for years, but it was late and no traffic about and when the light where I was stopped changed some punk in a Honda Si (I hadn't even noticed he was next to me) hole shot me and took off....well the old street racer instincts kicked in and I floored my 3.8 and passed him left him at least 3 car lengths behind when I hit the next green light about .3 mile down the road and backed off...he kept on accelerating and must have been doing 120+ before I lost sight of him around a curve...the sweet part tho is when I got a couple more miles down the road doing the speed limit, more or less, there he was pulled over with the party lights flashing and him assuming the position!

    LOL..... The part where you got a couple more miles down the road doing the speed limit, more or less, there he was pulled over with the party lights flashing and him assuming the position!.... He got what he deserved.

    Man don't you feel happy for slowing down first ;)

    And yeah, I mean I'd never condone it but I think realistically we all know that at one time or another we've all had a heavy foot. If you haven't, and you own this car, I don't believe you!

    That's the truth, a 1/4 mile or so late at night with no one about is one thing, but to continue at that kind of speed down the highway is asking for what he got...locked up and impounded.
    I've only had my Coupe for a month and had never firewalled it...I am very impressed with the response...My Girl Rocks!

    As much as I like to race. I would NEVER race on a street. Even with no cars on the road, it's still too dangerous.

    Use your head people!

    I hear ya Pmastron, and I am not advocating this practice, but sometimes the little head takes over thinking from the big head, and there you go....
