"I'll Show you nitrous" then turn around. For the most part that is just another supra owner being a douce. I do agree with the popular opinion give him all you got and pick up the pieces later. there are alotta cool people in the world but some people just cant help but to act like idiots

He already ran him once...and he spanked him. Seems fine to me.
No one is gauranteed a second race. Once in the same area is
usually good enough for me. The last thing I need to see in my
rearview are red & blue lights.

I agree and disagree... if the supra owner had somewhere to be then it's cool but not giving someone a second chance is kind of lame
it sure would have been nice to see the sprayed run vs that surpa.

You make a good point...and I cant disagree with it at all but I usually like to race more than once. I can also understand the termie owners point of view with wanting to see how his car stands up without the bottle to the supra(even though it may have been dumb if he was on a dedicated nitrous tune). Also by not running him the second time now you have a guy callin people out over the internet like a fool. If I was the supra owner and the guy spouted off that was off nitrous I'd be itching to 1 shut him up if I could and 2 see how my car would do against a probably ported/spray cobra.

I think its annoying as **** when people get their *** spanked and keep trying to race me claiming "oh... well I didnt spray or oh....I was in the wrong gear" tough **** man U shoulda went all out the first time. He prolly should have thought wait a sec im about to race a turbo supra I better turn my gas on because the odds of him being faster than me are pretty good. Sometimes you only get 1 shot..........and I guess he blew it......

yeah will's car is pretty awesome... the race was kind of jacked up. Neither one of us had working horns so as soon as I started brake boosted he'd take off (later he told me he thought I was just extremely laggy lol) or I'd get the jump on him. clearly his car was faster at the time. He recently sent me a PM asking for a rematch but I've since hurt the motor so I'll be down for a few more months.
