Default They think I sprayed...

So this story isn't the most exciting ever, so here are some cliff notes.

-Beat a v6 Mustang (new body style) that had intake, exhaust, headers, and a tune.

-Beat a late 90's GTP while my clutch was slipping.

-They were convinced I sprayed.

Tonight, I was hanging with the local Honda/import guys. Really just a bunch of guys hanging, but Civics are the most common car. A kid that was dating a friend walks up to me as soon as I get there and asked if I wanted a run with a v6 Mustang. I looked at him funny, and he said the car runs 14.0 or better quarter mile. I agreed, but to do it later on.

About an hour later, I followed them out to this road in BFE and we did some runs. I'll be honest, I FUBARed my first race (missed third cuz I wasn't paying attention, but I still stayed ahead til 80 when I left it in 5th). Next races, I beat him. Each time, I stayed about even with him while spinning through first, then beating him.

Here's the fun part! I turned around on their designated u-turn area, and I went into the ditch enough to get my clutch wet. Awesome.

After getting the wet clutch and not knowing it, I raced the GTP. He asked what was done, told him just exhaust. I beat him. Next race, I made sure to absolutely demolish him, even with the slipping clutch. By about 120, I had about 8-10 cars at the least on him.

When I got back to the local hangout, everyone was laughing and told me to keep my hood shut. The two drivers SWORE up and down that I was spraying. I popped the hood and laughed. Retards these days...

Actually, I went mudding through every field I saw. I am from Jennings County after all. The ditch I went in had a lot of water.

You mean wet tires I hope...I never heard such a thing as a wet clutch

Good kill whatsoever..

And about the N2O, it looks like the guys were all proud because you could have sprayed; whats the problem plp have against N2O?? Obviously you didnt, but whats the point to laugh about N2O???? You win, thats what matters. Nobody laughs because you are turboed or supercharged. Bunch or ricers.

My front tires went into the dropoff, so Idk just how much of my car got wet. And it wasn't until then that my clutch started acting funny. So either it was wet, or my clutch is now messed up. But I don't have any spray and the mods are in my sig. It's just funny that they didn't think my LT1 could get their v6s in the top end (not saying it's always gonna be me beating a v6, just these guys). Everyone knew they had lost, because the first things that came out of their mouths were ricer excuses.

And I forget who said it on here, but those GTPs do fall on their faces on top end. We were kinda close before 100. After 100 was when I really started getting him. Idk if all GTPs are like that, but this one fit the profile.

Clutch wet? Mudding? Are you insane? That is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard.

Correction! Headlight Fluid!!!!

It would be closer to the headlight fluid since the headlight cables run into the clutch!!! Or he may want to push the tires up to 95psi so it wont get wet next time from being to close to the ground! I think he should film this while he is doing it so we can make sure he is doing it correctly!!!!

You would think they would build something around the clutch so that this wouldn't happen to people.

Oh but guys, aren't you going to ask me if I welded my differential? I tried using 95psi in the tires, but all of the gauges I used went to 90, so I had to settle. I'm outta headlight and blinker fluid, I was pissed that I didn't check them before I went out. And I'm definitely 15. Big brudda wets me use his big kah to make me feel special...


Honestly. Since everyone thinks they are king ****, explain to me why my clutch, after my front end got wet, decided to start slipping, but the next day was pefectly fine? Do slight impacts **** it up for a night? And do you honestly think I would ******* go mudding IN A TRANS AM!?!? It was a joke pointed at 98gsr, but if someone took me seriously then what the hell. I'm sorry that I decided to be honest in a post unlike half the ******** around here that only put in the **** that makes them look good.

I'll run the Formula sometime David. Just tell me it's a v6. I have to run Seth too, cuz that same night he asked to run and I declined him. So a 3way on the interstate would be good. If you could get the local black Cobra to run as well, that'd be good.
