Smile New Evo= Kill Story :)

Ok so its 12:00 at night and im driven wit my buddy when all of a sudden two cars pull on my ***. One is a new evo and the other is an old model cobra like 90 somthing cobra. So i punch it to get them off my *** and then pull on to an open rode. I roll at like 5 or 10 (like idle speed) the evo pulls up next to me and does the same. I honk three times and give him the hit. He punchs it and then my T/A hauls ***. I end up beatin this guy by a half length (on wet pavement too). Now i can sleep easy. I Can't wait to get my 3.73 in the spring!

You beat a awd drive car on wet roads? Amazing, my car is useless on wet roads under 45mph.

I can't believe you got any traction at all. Insane!

Nice kill. I've yet to see one of those. Maybe I'll head out to the Mitsu dealership to test drive one if they have any tonight.

You wouldn't wake up if your car was on top of you.

Then i'd get metal legs. It's a risky operation but it's worth it.

I was thinking about doing that anyway.
Wouldn't mind a hydraulic leg powering my clutch

What amount of power can you NOT make in order to hook up on wet roads from a 5-10mph punch?

Oh good kill

That's a nice kill and even more exciting about the thought of getting decent traction on a damp road. I can't hit it at 50 mph on a dry road without having to worry about tire spin!

Get better tires. I can punch it at 10mph in my Cobra and dead hook...I also got 4.30 gears and alittle more power than you.
