Ok, I'm riding home from school tonight when this guy in a new Mitsubishi Eclipse pulls up beside me and just parallels me... THEN, I hear his engine begin to roar and he starts to take off. SO, I drop the hammer. I expect to be destroyed, but I started catching him, (I could hear his engine, he was running the hell out of that car) and I SO OWNED him. How is that possible? I thought even the crap Eclipses were faster than our cars. Keep in mind I ran him from about 70 to 110ish and then had to slow for traffic. Are they just that slow at speed or something?

What model Eclipse was it? What model Celica do you have?

And since we're on the subject of kills, today on me and my brother's way home from work, some kid TRIED instigating a race with his Type-R. As soon as I heard him rev, I just started laughing, because I couldn't believe that he would even want to try. So my brother blew off on him. PSSSSSHHH. And he continued to rev. I laughed even harder... and so my brother continued to blow off hoping he would get the hint. But the kid didn't. So my brother slowed down, went behind him, and waited for him to take off.

SIDE NOTE: My brother loves letting Civics and Integs take the lead...

So after the lanes became clear, my brother floored the TWO and pulled right past him just a little bit just to mess with the kid. The kid then pushed harder, and so did my brother. Turbo kicked in... torqued to full boost... and then we just slowed down to teach the kid a lesson. The kid was embarrased and decided to just slow down and exit.

Oh well, not much of a story... but it still cracks me up when these KIDS try to (instigate a) race... What a waste of gas...
