But ya, back on topic......havent seen either of them with hardly any traffic. So no, haven't raced them yet. Two of my new tires have a bubble in them. So the dealership said it looked to be manufacture defect. Today they are getting replaced.

So I keep pulling up beside R/Ts who never want to play. Maybe I should change my vanity plate to HEMIPLZ.

They replaced all the tires today! Woohoo. I didn't have time to mess around. Oh well.

And since this thread is very active i'll ask here. My AC isn't blowing cold air. And it sucks bad. I'm currently broke and can't take it to the dealership for them to look at it. I wanna try to do it myself.

I thought refridgerant (sp?) but not sure how or what kind. SOmeone mentioned in my other thread, AC gauges. What are those? Help please! This 90 degree weather is whoopin my butt without AC.

i know im in the "wrong section" lol, but the srt8 chargers and challengers are slower than my bone stock 2000 firehawk, so are stock sti's and evos. i watched a 98 z28 walk away from a 06 evo like he was standing still. though the guy in the evo was a retard and in an all wheel drive car he wanted to race from a 30 punch lol.

July 3rd we had a very big fireworks show in my town. It happens every year. Well after the show i went to Shell to get gas because I was "low fuel". So as I was waiting to pull out onto the road, a chevy caprice with louder than stock exhaust hauls out of McDondals.

In my head I was thinking, "oh ya, its on!" SO I caught up to them at the stop light. We each had a pickup in front of us, so I revved my engine. All 4 guys and 1 girl in the car turned to look at the badass sound of exhaust. When they looked with windows down, I said "What's up." As in I'm going to kick your *** when we race each other very soon.

We get to the next stoplight but decided to turn opposite directions. As I was turning west, they were waiting to turn east my passenger heard their passenger yell "Is that all that things got, *****?!"

Right then I said to my friend oh no they didn't, it's on. SO when I could make a U-turn, I did and started going there direction. They were still at the light so I pulled off in front of a hotel and waited for them. Half a minute passed, and sure enough....here they come.

I start to follow them and they are doing like 45 in a 35. Once they slow down I caught up and we came to a stop light. Different lanes obviously, light changes and we're off. The douche didn't even have a chance I whooped his ***....quick.

I slowed down, waited for them. They pulled up next to give me appraisal. Wanna know what I said next? "Is that all that things got, *****!" fun times
