Not a race but when i'm out and people pass me in much slower vehicles do you kinda feel like this? I know this might be the wrong place to post but most racers feel my pain...lol

LOL Yeah, but I know whats about to ensue soon.

It'll be a bunch of 'Good kills', 'He wasn't double clutching like he should', a few more F&F references, etc. LOL I was about to do it to you myself.

Worse is when they see you coming fast and they pull out from a side street and pull out as slow as they can while they look at you.

My favorite is when you try to pass they speed up then when you get back behind them they slow down again.

Amen

I usually just pass them right back. My buddy, with whatever bike he has at the time, passes them up, slows back down til they get mad and pass him, and then passes them again.

I just checked their cars, and Hector's gonna be running 3 Honda Civics with Spoon Engines, and on top of that, he came by to the store today and picked up three T-66 Turbos, with NOS, and a Motec system exhaust.

TALK TO ME JESSIE...

You've got a nasty hole in your fuel map. Let me tune the NAWS timer and you'll be running 9's.
