Default 02 WS6 vs 91 CRX

well it happened back in august but it was my first kill in my TA and i wanted to share it with everyone.... i was driving around lafayette trying to find my first race and nothing was coming up and it was getting late so i started to head home...before i made it out of town a friend called and told me he found a guy with a built CRX(they claimed it ran 13.2 on a bad launch and a worse tune) that wanted to run me so i turned around and went to meet them...when i got there he sent a few of his friends to look under my hood so i let them being the nice guy i am... anyways we drove a little ways outta town and he insisted on going from a 40 roll, which was perfectly fine with me because at that speed i'm at the perfect rpm in 2nd so he honks 3 times and we take off...right away i jump about a car on him and shift to 3rd...as soon as i hit 3rd i start pulling away and keep going till he's about 8 lengths behind at around 120 and he gives up..or so i thought...after i slowed down he proceeded to start honking again....he tried to do this at least 4 or 5 times. He must have been pissed the last time because he left on the 2nd honk, it took some work that time but i still managed to get him by a car or two needless to say he gave up after that...even though it was only a CRX it was a kill and my first in the new car

Nice kill, those ugly little boxes can be made pretty fast if built right, thanks to being so light. But a kill is a kill and it sounds like it wasnt even close. What mods do you have?

Nice kill man.

I hate those little riceboxes, regardless of how fast they can be made they are still little pieces of crap

Good kill. For drag racing, they can be alright, cuz of how light. But at an autocross event i went to last time, there was one that was tearing that **** up, except for twice when he had HORRIBLE understeer and just went at about a 45* angle through a turn and came to a complete stop. When he drove right, the lil bastard was getting his inside rear wheel off the ground..
