Not the right forum. I don't have any Mod abilities (maybe someday) or I would move it for you but we have a street racing section here. These go there.

Good kill though.

I had a late model turbo civic come up on me a few months ago revving with his gf in the passenger seat. Using the blow off valve to tell me he was turbo'd. Probably hoping I'd not race him. I figured I was toast.. but I raced him anyhow. I had over 3 cars on the guy by the time I was at 90. I waved him down by the exit that went to 7/11 and he ignored me and and did a drive-by. I am sure it was embarrassing being that his gf was sitting with him. She wasn't all that anyhow. I've heard a lot of boosted civics are running mid 14s. I am sure there are faster out there however.
