maybe i should start a story, just beaten by boredom. whoever reads it enjoy... and hopefully someone reads it before this thread is gone...

me and my buddy raced with his CRX with a B16A engine (only 7000 miles on it), im not gonna brag but i did smoked him several times. he just got his car recently from the shop with an engine swap, his crx is not bad at all, it sounds mean. a sound that i would like to have on my tc.

My tC: DC Header, S Weapon-R intake, Weapon-R Damper kit, Resistor mod.
VS.
CRX: engine swapped B16A, custom intake and exhaust, sports clutch

we raced on an abandoned road (very high drug traffic there and plenty of deers to spot) and the road extend more then 1/4th mile. First day we raced only twice, i smoked him pretty bad.

day1- CRX had one passenger and me driving alone
-first race was from 0 to whatever, i was in the lead about 10 yards away, but in the first race he didnt pre-rev his engine because he wants wait for his clutch to break-in.

-second race was 10 to whatever, i smoked him clearly.

day2 we meet up again same spot this time i had 2 passengers and crx had 1; before we headed to the abandoned road again, he did a CAI trick with the BAG OF ICE, some of you guys should know about this trick. LOL

- third race from 0- whatever CRX kept up to me throughout the race and i was 5 feet in the lead. after goin 60 mph he started gain up alittle and around 70mph we were head to head, but after that i slowed down because i did not know when the road ends; if i kept goin i would be goin too fast on a turn ahead of me and possibly hit a tree. tho crx claimed he won (he also talked smack like "come on you scion piece of sh*t" lol), we had to race again.

fourth race was 0-100mph, ofcourse i stayed in the lead and he was right on my ___ throughout

fifth race i burnt him from head start, he must've messed up or something


and that was it!!! i guess that CAI ice bag trick worked abit or i had 2 other people in the car....

Lol, oh so you mean it makes the engine run seriously rich, and wastes fuel, and carbons up the engine? You actually *paid* for something to do that??

The fact is, unless you speak with the other driver *before racing* and set out exact criteria (start/finish line, rolling start/dig, etc etc) it's impossible to say who's car beat who. I can beat a wrx if the driver isn't paying attention, and doesn't know we are racing, and gets a late start. Or if the wrx decides he only wants to race until third gear. In neither situation should my win be considered a kill. Lastly, street racing is retardly juvenile and stupid. there are just too many stories of innocent bystanders getting killed or injured by people screwing around racing on public roads. If you want to race, take it to the track.

The reason why people hate vs/kill threads are too numerous to count...too much bs, too little fact, too many idiots talking about mods that give them 45 whp when in actuality they do nothing except take extra money out of people's pockets, and last but not least, the afore mentioned innocents who get hurt or killed when some 17 year old loses control and slams into someone.

I'm not saying that all/any of that appiles to you, I didn't read your story, I'm just letting you know why people hate hearing about kill threads.

i lost to a B16a hatch, if you beat a b16 crx, there's something wrong. My friend's b16 hatch completely stock runs high 14's, so obviously i lost.

He's actually a member of our local Scion club (his wife drives a box). He normally does better than that. He did when first in his class, I was 7th in mine. Kind of sad though that ESP times were slower than STS times.

This past Saturday I got 2nd Place in STS. One Civic driver complained about getting "beat by a Scion." I'm sure he has more mods on his car too. I'm stock except for TRD springs and Falken Azenis on stock wheels. Then again the first place person was driving a Civic Hatch built specifically for Autocrosses. That and he has a couple years experience on me.

First off street racing is not retarded and juvenile, that makes no sense. street racing is just something fun to do. I live in wisconsin and its gets so boring, when you can get like 60 or 70 cars and go street racing in places its awesome, and i have never seen anybody get hurt, i mean it does happen but accidents happen all the time.And not everybody can just go to the track, if your on the street and you wanna race someone, are you gonna say, hey meet me at the track at 2:00 to race, thats so ___, so in finishing street racing is not retarded it can be f***ing awesome

I was following my friend with a box on the interstate one time when a Ferrari got up behind me. He passed us once, then we lost him. Granted, it wasn't a straight line, we just made our way through the traffic easier in our cheap small cars than he could in his big expensive one.

on that whole story i did quote "he has a brand new clutch, so he refused to pre-rev his car at launch" tho we did start a race starting 10mph and i won...

i have my damper kit on me so i guarantee a good launch....
