Smile 1st race, 1st kill story

so tonight i went up to wawa to see a couple friends. this ford taurus sho 24v dohc saw the camaro and was asking me about it if it was fast blah blah.
He was talking his car up like it was a lambo. he said it ran a 14.7 so i was like yeah this guy is in for an *** whooping. we drove the the high way, went from i guess a 40 roll, whooped his ***, he still wanted to go. Then we went from a dig, once again whooped his ***. Then i was nice and gave him a head start. Believe it or not, whooped his ***, probably about 10 car lengths. This was a waste of my time and gas. but it was my first race so im pretty happy.

You should have stopped after the first race. No use getting a ticket for kicking a puppy! The new one's should be a better race.

Yea the new ones are sick. Once you heard him say he ran 14.7 you shouldnt have wasted your gas lol but good kill. Feels good to put a whooping on someone. Get a stall and gears and wake up that a4 bro

the new twin turbo sho doesnt impress me at all.

0-60 times near 6 seconds and quarter times around 14 seconds, and that's with a good driver. Not to mention is weighs about a grand more than our cars.

No clue man. can't wait to see one locally, even tho GPD and MPD are hot all over 385 these days.

But i just know that some guy is gonna buy one and say "well the commercial said this thing has 370 horsepower so its super fast!"

How'd that interview go bro?
