Races with Sprint, and his friend's GS400

Well, doug actually showed up for his a$$ wooping tonight but he brought backup, his friends in his GS400. It was a nice car. they all like my car and we decided to go out racing. Medic came along also, more on that later. We roll from the turnpike down to 84 and take off, me and the GS line up at about 80 and gun it, i held even through 4th gear and at like 115 he started eeking a little bit. when i had to shift he got a little more then started gaining some and i shut it down. we tried again later and same thing, it's half my shifting and half his extra 50hp. later he even told me that once my car has a few more K on it and i can shift better it will be a dead heat. i was happy. sprint isn't worth mentioning much. i beat him pretty bad. Medic actually kept up with sprint and at one point pulled on him. I guess it's time to start looking for that intake, i want to beat that GS400. Doug says that's sticker material, so now i have a goal. All i ever wanted was that sticker, and i will get it.

Nice runs. How's the new car feeling so far? Is this your first stick car....cause you said "it's half my shifting" or are you just not used to it yet?

Sounds like your car is not broken in yet. You car likely to run faster once broken-in. Why do you torture your ride like that, it is brand new now.

Very nice.


Your goal is to beat the GS400 and get a sticker? I'm assuming it's the sx7r sticker?

Cool! Your car is going to be a beast when you get a CAI and Y-pipe let alone a "sticker". I would really love to see how your car runs with a modded 5spd. You and the GS started way up at 80 and you held pretty even? That is impressive! Enjoy the ride!

if sprint is a modded 5-spd then i will walk away. and ya me and the GS started at 80, that's about where the weight factor start to become less of a player and the HP takes over, that's why at 115 he started creeping away. I'm not gonna get a CAI though, just a short ram intake, i'm not drilling anyhole in this one. And greg tank you again, so when are you gonna give me back my 10K of tire life

Nope not at highway speeds that you guys were running. Mod for mod 4th gear on a 5th gen 5spd will pull harder than a 4th gen. Only one way for you to find out though?? Hopefully you can run Dennis or one of the other modded 5spd 5th gen guys before the snow comes.

Steve you are talking lots of **** to my car that was disabled.. we already established that my car was running slower NA than it was juicing.. greg walked me while i was juicing because i was flooding my engine.. and i walked him NA..

so all the runs i had with you were slower than i would be NA.. but since you want to talk **** .. i will be happy to meet you back at the turnpike next friday .. this time i will not be disabled .. how about that Stevie boy? on video again.. maybe you run the GS again without your passenger ..

tell you what Stevie boy.. you run friday.. you win? you get a sticker.. the offer is on the table

dmbmaxima88. Good race. Please learn not to talk so much fesses. It's not life or death. Nice ride. Your car needs a new driver--Please do not run people off the highway. Learn to shift. Be safe. That mouth/fingers does bring the attention you crave. If that what you want? You have gotten it. Thread carefully and watch out for GS400s.
