Got smoked

ight heres what happened in my town theirs a local dunkin donuts where all the rice meet at. so i rolled up thier with my stock 96 sayin "yo ill race anybody" so i got two races the first was with a tsi talon i knew right off the bat i was gonna lose but i wanted to see if i could keep up well turns out i got smoked by 3 car lengths. the second was a gulf. had all the emblums off didnt think much of it. we got to the line. i shifted into first he spun his tires and i just went i was in the lead till i shifted into third he started to pass me then as soon as i shifted into fourth he was infront of me then finally we ended with him beign a car length ahead of me. ends up being a vr6 gulf kid had entire exhaust sytem and cai. hey i got smoked but i still got the rush. now i hope to roll up with my new exhaust im gettin and just be like lets race i know ill prolly lose but hey i love racin but i hate to lose.

just be carful and dong get caught. Also its probably not to smart to pull up in your stock maxima and say ill race anyone. Your asking to get your *** kicked. You should have just told the little civics that you will race them.lol They are a waste of time though. Take Care

i used to cruise in my stock98se
now that i got mods i dnot even do that anymore. if it happens it happens ive stopped LOOKIN for trouble..

word of advice. you probably shifted too early, or if youre an auto i guess you cant help it. i guess it kinda sucks when you go into third but if you play it right in second gear you shoulda been ok. then again it was a modded vr6 (not that i like vw's)
anyway. enjoy
