The fact that my daily driver aka Rosie (1993 v6 camry) is awaiting me changing the ps pump I have been forced to drive the beast 70 miles/day for the past week. It is killing me, moreso because I had yet to even have one challenge. Today I got off the highway and there is a modded Volkswagen R32 at the light. I pull up, the guy notices the brakes and with a nod its on. We wait for the light to turn green, the driver of the r32 wearing a smirk like he's about to own the SUV.
It turns green, I wait one second to give him a jump and then it was over. It felt like he wasnt even moving. Then round 2 was from a roll, still no match.

Then on the way to work today I was doing a leisurely 70 (trying to keep the mpg high) when a maxima SE-R(yes, keep reading) was weaving in the backfield and whizzing by everyone like he owned the road. I paid it no mind since "Its not worth the gas," until I saw his license plate
"SHUKUUP"
and that was all it took.

Like a shark on a seal, I came up on him. He looked in his rear view to see just what he "shuk up" then I came around and let him get the black smoke from the screaming hemi's pipes in his face. He slowed down and took the next exit.

I love this truck.

Good work. Lesson here is if you want kills, you have to drive more...

I guess that would make his ride a Maxima SEAL-R? Oh the humanity - loved the kills.
On a sadder note there is upcoming Ontario Canada legislation this morning that would result in a $10,000 fine and impounding of your vehicle for such behavior.:eek: The apocolypse is upon us in the great white north.

The first chance I ever had to play with someone, a pedestrian walked across the intersection when the light turned green killing the situation. It was in the rain, so it would have been a real shocker for them. Damn jaywalker spoiled my fun. :(

from the numbers it seems like an 07 s6 would be a formidable opponent.

i wouldn't mine owning one.

A6 - Kill
S6 - Should squeak out a kill
RS6 - Would kill us

The RS6 is very heavy. My 05 S4 was pretty heavy too. I believe the SRT8 would beat it. Now the RS4 would be fun to watch.

My prev car was the RS6, the only thing I really miss about it is that it handled like a car in a video game. Everyone who has driven both that old one and my newer SRT8 says the GC is 'faster' definitely the rear wheel bias and lower gearing make it seem that way. The RS6 was amazing but not always in good ways. The GC SRT8 seems like it would easily beat it off the line but after a bit the Audi would catch up and surpass, if it didn't break.:rolleyes:

In VA a week ago. At a light in the left lane, 2 lanes each way, 18wheeler is stopped in the lane to the right of me about 200ft after the intersection. Some little red car pulls up next to me after a bit, glanced over, thought it was an older gen Eclipse. Thinking, even if this guys 'riced' to the max he doesn't have a shot (or a clue). Light changes, I wait for a a fraction of a sec, he's accelerating well, I apply some pressure to the go pedal. He goes for it, I give it more, he now backs off. Now I see the red C5 show up in my rear view. Don't know much about vette's from the front to determine if he had much of anything, assume it was stock. I have a great bit of respect for the Corvette but it managed to amuse me greatly. :D

Nothing too big, but exciting all the same! This is a twofer :)

1. a somewhat "tuned" acura integra... he started it. I think he saw the exhaust and thought it was just a churched up regular jeep.....WRONGSKI DADIO


1. Whatever the riced up version on the little chevy cavaler is.

I know I know nothing amazing, but it was fun all the same and both times they initiated it and (no one flame me for speeding) but got to about 80 or so on fairly busy streets of only 40 or so limits.

hurray!

How bout this weekend at Ocean City cruising weekend:

Kills:
04 Cobra w/ exhaust, chip, intake, pulley (my proudest kill) from a stoplight
92 S10 w/ chevy 305. Killed from a roll.
C5 vert w/ 6 speed. Killed from a stop
87 Mushtang Coupe w/ carbed ford 306 (12.5 sec car at track) killed from roll and stoplight
92 Rustang Hatch w/ regular 5.0 and lotsa mods (no forced induction) killed from stoplight


Only car that I truly raced that beat me, was an SRT8 brother, a highly modded charger. Badass car, 17 year old kid, kinda ridiculous.

Thought you would like this....
I was driving down the gs parkway nj last night 6:30 and an Audi A8L (2004 ish) flew up behind me. Wanted me to move over........well, I opened it up. He tried like hell to keep up with me. I backed off at 135, due to the fact I caught up to the guy in front of me. We both got off the next exit, came to the yield sign, and I launched it from a stop. He tried again, no luck. You can tell he had no clue what I had. I could see him pulling close and to the side of me at the light to see what I was driving. He was too embarrassed to ask.
I love this truck.
Happy driving.

After crossing the RT 1 bridge from Trenton into PA on Tuesday, a guy in a new white 350Z pulls up behind me. I proceed to floor it and he trys to keeps up, but falls WAY behind.

I let up he comes up on my a$$. As we pass a car on our right, he proceeds to floor it and jump into the right lane to try and pass me :rolleyes: I drop the autostick down to third and mash it!! He gets the jump but only can pull his nose to my front passenger door, at which point I begin to walk him!!:D

I slow down and get into the right lane to give'em the old thumbs up. I look in my side view at him in the left lane driving slowy checking out the beast and notice him with a camera in his hand snapping photos. I give him the thumbs up and he returns the favor as I can see him through the side view. As he pulls along side me he mouths the words "THAT THING IS BAD A$$"

Good times!!!
