Yesterday, coming home from the local shop (bought japanese air freshner +5hp) during rush hour around 4 pm, i saw this silver integra (auto i think) with aftermarket rims and exhaust, and lowered. i weaved through traffic to get to him, and picked a race with him, but he didnt do anything. i was pretty dissapointed but like less than 50 ft ahead was an even more riced out integra. this black integra gsr (manual) had rims, greddy, body kit, and completely slammed to the ground (maybe 2 inches from the ground) and probably other bolt ons. so i caught upto him, gave him a look, and he took off.
i must say, he was a pretty good driver the way he managed the traffic... his decision making was exellent... even with full traffic we hit over 100mph. when he took off, i was behind him from the beginning. i think i was within 5 ft the whole time... and in one straight away, in fourth gear, around 5k rpm, i had release the gas cuz i almost hit him. i know he didnt slow down, cuz i saw him shift to fifth. now, i am wondering... do you think i caught up to him because i was drafting so closely, or because my car is faster... im not really sure. god i wish there was room to pass, but too much traffic. oh well, it was still fun.

nice 
which shop were you at?
this morning when I was going to work, I came up against this new Celica GT with a HUGE exhaust. It was a one lane road and we were stopped at a light. He was first and I was right behind. He takes off normally as do I. Then, he looks in his rearview and guns it. I give it gas and am on his tail....he couldn't shake me at all, and I wasn't even at WOT. Had to turn off after that...
Harrison, whats the deal? Everyone wants a race around here these days. I have gotten into five or six in the past two days.....used up a lot of gas
oh well tho....

Many 5 speed Maximas are in the high 14's. Some are in the mid 14's.
