Default Almost got it off the traler

Boy i couldn't get a race even when i offer to fill up a guys tank with 108.

Pull into taco bell to get some food, somthing about not eating all day and then drinking makes you hungrey, so i park the truck and walk inside, come out and three kids, look like highschoolers staring in my windows. I walk up to them ask if i can help them, and they start asking 100 questions about the car, so i play the well its sort of fast game, which it is compared to most gutted out nitrous cars

So then the one kid starts talkin all this **** about how his honds runs low nines, I about lose it at this point and start to wakl away, when all of a sudden he wips out a wad of case and asks if i race for money, I turn around and i swear if it wasn't dark, you could see the gleam in my eyes, Yes.. yes finaly after a day of letdowns, and tons of bullshiting honda guys, i found one So I stop take a quick survey of the road, sort of dry, good lines, would have to baby it out of the hole but **** looking at his fart can equioed, park bench waring honda, i say hell yes i race for money, It will cost you 1000, for it to come off the trailor. Kid looks at me and waits like ten minutes, and says pop the hood, He starts looking under the hood and then turns around plain as day and says"THIS THING IS A V-8, I thought It was a 6 banger. Then the excusses start, the best one is well i run a big turbo and i need better than 92. Well guess what budy i got 5 gallons of c-12 right there. From then on it just turned into one thing after another, my tires, it's wet, can't get caught street racng again blah....blah.........blah, so tell him to keep his excusses for some other loser, get in the truck and head home to enjoy my chalupa, and boy was it good.

See evem if you try to help them out they still make excusses. What really blew my mind was the fact that he thought it was a V-6

Sorry for the long post, but had to tell that story, after a day like this i thought for shure i had a race.......

Don't you hate ricers on Friday nights? I had this stupid Eclipse ******* me the whole way up Canyon/256/Kent-Kangley as I came home tonight. I left him at every light and he pulled up looking for more at each red. They never learn.

Man, those guys are so ******* annoying... at least the ones that actually race their Hondas at the TnTs don't have any delusions that their park bench fart canned honda is faster than cars like ours.

The only **** talkers out there are usually the ones that have never even sniffed a track, let alone had the nuts to get out on one and see what happens.

Nice job showing them up...

Well, there's is that one guy that comes down to PacRac all the time that runs 10s in an Acura Integra...

Of course the car is gutted, runs slicks on the front, has wheelie bars on it to hold the front wheels on the ground, and snaps the axles about every third run.... no way it would ever be driven on the street...

But it does run 10s!

I agree... for the money that dude spent on that Acura, he could be running 8's in a V8 powerd car.

Thats the key. Find a street driven one and then you've got something.
