i don't know if it was a 99 but it was that year model.. and it was silver.. probably stock.. but hey i really don't give a ****..

coming home from the Airport last night at 1 am in the morning this moron decides he wants to start acting stupid and race me.. so what if his car is a 17 sec car and my car is a low 14 car .. i was tired.. i just got off a plane after 8 hours of flying.. and waiting in the airport 1 hour for the long term parking bus.. driving in traffic in NYC because the genious decide to work on the Van Wyck during rush hour for airports and it took me 3 hours to get home..

Needless to say.. it looked like he was driving in reverse.. i kicked his *** pretty bad and even after 130 mph i just kept going.. i never saw him again..

Street racing is bad. How dare you act so irresponsibly in a vehicle? You could have killed a busload of Jerry's Kids on their way to grandma's 80th birthday party. 130mph! I hope that was a joke. You have no business going that fast on a public road. You are a bad person. How can you live with yourself? I hope you die soon. I'm better than you.

Heh, way to represent.

AirTrain, how are you going to bring your luggage for a flight onto a train. Stupid MTA, anyway, mzmtg, you are on the ball today, funny as hell.

This primered up Mustang (Huge hood and everything) was gettin pretty crazy with me today, so I figured I would ask him what was in the car. I pull up and ask him thinking... 350, 425.....

He says: 305.....

Damn out of staters,don't know what the AirTrain is. Sprint, the REALLY big concrete thing that you were driving next to coming up the Van Wyck that slows traffic down because of its constuction is called the AirTrain. I've gotten stuck in traffic on the Van Wyck numerous times also, so every time I see it I curse it.

Ok first of all, there has never been any 350, 425, or even a 305.

There have been 289, 302, 351, 390, 427, and whatever the heck those 4.6's are, probably somewhere around a 280. I'm not sure of the math for liters to ci.

Yeah, 305 and 350 are Chevy V8s. A 4.6 is a 281.

Street racing is evil, you're all going to burn in hell...

Here in Kansas City we've got 5 late model Civics (car club) that have ultralight 15s, lowered, and a bullet mufflers and that's it......on the outside. Under the hood, a couple are running built B16s, couple with ITR swaps and 40-50 shots, and another with a H22. Let's just say most guys don't know what hit them after the race. Hondas have become like Mustangs, you never know what you are gonna get.
