A. you should never mention illegal street racing on here.
B. Check engine lights sometimes do weird stuff like that...wait a few days and see if it comes back on.
C. Did I mention not to talk about illegal street racing?

very bad idea to mention racing on the org, alot of the guys are really **** about that stuff. but hey, about your check engine light, i think its just a weird malfunction that will probably just stop happening in a couple days. check if your filter is tight on your intake, (if you have an aftermarket intake). Becuase mine was loose/almost off, and the check engine kept turning on/off randomly.

I assume you're talking about from a stoplight?

You'd probably get a careless or reckless driving ticket if you just started accelerating like a madman all over town

I asked my dad who's a cop, and he said he'd deffinatly pull someone over and tell them to knock it off even if he didn't get lucky enough to get a ticket on them

just don't street race

^^ Why do you have a test-pipe on your car, that is just retarded.

Oh, and if by any chance you have the stock cat still I'll buy it off you.
