Default Got Smoked Tonight

Hey, so I was out tonight, and took off pretty fast from this light, and this civic hatch goes flyin' by me with a lame muffler on it. So, we end up at a light, and he smokes me, because I burned rubber for like an hour(crappy launch) Then this girl in a civic LX goes flying by us, hehe. I felt lame tonight, having a bad launch. and not having anything to show for it. Peace.

You have your ups, and you have your downs, you'll have your up days again.

I drop the clutch at around 2-2.5 rpms it gives good torque and you dont peel out almost at all, i usually wins most of my races that way, ive only lost to a GSR and Firebird. The GSR got lucky

yeah i know how u feel, i did that in my xb. Funny as this may sound, i would prefer to lose a race than win won. You win it's like; "YEAH!! i did it right!!" but when u lose, you're like "damn it, i gotta make my car faster. I'm going to add this, do that". It's a whole pschycological drive. got it??
