Default 3000gt Vr4

A lot of smack, a lot of smoke, and he was in my mirrors.

I just got off the highway were I past him (I was only doing about 80). He pulled up next to me at the light at the end of the off ramp. He started talking ****, something about passing him and he want to really race me. I really didn't want to deal with him and I didn't pass him to prove anything but now he got my attention. When the light turned green, he got me off the line but that did last all that long, I passed him in about 100 feet. By the time I hit about 130, he was struggling to keep up. The funny thing was about 3 miles into the race he slowed down and turned off.

Guess he could talk a lot of **** but couldn't back it up.

My buddy had a 3000GT SL and it was quick. Honestly I was surpised that I killed him. I think he sucked driving stick and the turbo lag helped me out a little bit.

3kgt's are called GTO's over in japan. My friend has an SL decked out in GTO badges ( ), but it's turbo'd so I'll give him some credit.

Still not all that impressed by them. Now I got spanked by a WRX SVT. Granted he put 15k into it and we raced on back roads. That was one of the nastiest races I was ever in.

So are you sure it was a VR4?

BTW Turbo lag on VR4's is almost non-existant, their tiny 9b's spool up pretty quickly, but can't do much after 7k ish.

You are dumb.
