I usually dont post my races but ive been after this one for a while

I have raced this TRD Celica GT-S a few times and he keeps beating me by about a car length or so. Well tonight I raced him again for the first time in about a month or so. He has intake,exhaust,and says that he has some other stuff that he wont tell me about. I know the kid because I used to work with him, hes a cool guy, but he always brags about how he can beat me. So we go out to race on this road that we always race at and we line them up. The guy who was riding with him got out and started the race. I spun out quite a bit in 1st but just immediately started pulling on him once I got traction. I ended up beating him by about 2 cars to 90. We raced again with the same result. I was pretty pumped since ive lost to this guy the first few times we raced. It felt good to actually beat him. Now the guy who started the race wants to race me. He has a WRX so im pretty sure he could take me, Maybe I could take him once we got up to top end? Who knows, just thought id share my kill. Its the first one ive ever posted. What do you guys think the WRX out come would be? Take Care

Race the WRX on a roll at higher speeds. He will murder you off the line.

Do you think he still will, even with my mods? By the way I didnt have the ZEX when I lost to the GT-S. Take Care

Ok, but shouldnt I be able to catch up, or is a 55 shot not enough to catch him by 100? Take Care
