Thumbs up The Most Funniest "Kill"....

I was out ridin in my 99 Trans Am with my gf, 72 degrees no humidity with the T-tops off and when I get on the interstate highway I saw a big fat guy ridin low in a pink civic with a bomex body kit and the front bumber was hangin by 2 weilds and was rocking back and forth at 55 mph.. So I act like the cool dude and I get up next to em and I was like "Yo, Lets Go Man, Lets See What You Got!"
So he gives me the Fat Joe kinda nod and takes off his shirt and puts on a platnium chain (gotta look cool being dumb) and he downshifts, I floor hit at 60 in 3rd and the second he floors the gas LOL!! his front bumber falls of goes under all four wheels and hes like WTF!?! im laughing so hard I barely realize im going 95 mph and I missed the exit to the mall

Wouldnt call that a kill, but just plain humor..

Yeah he has to have more than a 100 shot to get that kind of trap speed. What's in that bad boy??

Good story...but 12.4 @ 119mph is more realistic. No chance a 100shot is giving him around 650rwhp.

And here it comes, slowly rising from the murky waters of his sig..........




There we go, and upon further explanation of that ridiculous trap speed I shall gladly retract it. Funny story, nonetheless.

thats a pretty funny story. it reminde me when i was behind a civic and a an integra on the highway. they went to race and the integra floored it and went ahead of the civic. then the civic hit it and his muffler fell off. it was the funniest thing ive ever seen.

the reason for 130 was because the conditions on the track werent exactly standard, the roads were still damp. I used nitrous at mid 3rd gear when i was about 1/8th of the way there my tires were STILL spininng in fact... when i launched speedometer said 80mph! I was up against an evo8 at the time and he was havent as much trouble as me because of AWD but he was still strugglin, he said 1/8th he was 110 mph... probably in reality 130 was probably 100-110 it was up there last night and best run was 12.3@110 and that made a little more sense, gonna update it now

Im careful with the NOS though or else my engine will go BOOF




That's what did it for me. Fella's, he's either taking you all for a ride, or he's a ricer. Either way, the story isn't as funny to me. That's actually pretty common around here...(the part about the kit coming off going down the road)

SO is it standard practice to quote your trap times by reading it right off the speedometer?
