quick run with a rx8 I was at a stop light and a red rx8 was beside me. As the light turned green it shot out really quick and I was kinda snoozing. well I took off and spun for a bit. the car of course shifted way to early into 2nd gear. all the while the rx8 got about 2 cars ahead of me but then i finally gripped and pulled it back like someone had a cable tied to it and yanked it backwards. i passed it around 80ish mph. and then just let off. turned out it was a girl i went to high school. I told her good launch. and we talked for a second because neither of us realized at the time who the other was.
i need some better tires. i kinda miss the days of being able to just press gas and go without worrying about burning rubber in my other cars

heh i know my current tires are 265 fuzion zri, they were decent when i was stock but i def need something wider and stickier. because i cannot launch in first no matter what. i just spin. and even in second the tries if i dont stay perfectly straight and the road perfectly smooth around 60mph will try to start spinning again. i need to find some good rear tires to fit on my 18" c5 rims i got on the back.
Launching!

Good kill,
Yesterday there was a blue RX8 driving like a ricer, with no shirt, visor tilted ever so slightly, with his head hardly above the dash
, right on my brothers bumper. Mine you I'm riding with him in a '00 ford exploder because he has his permit. Man I was wishing we were in my G8. Oh well.
