first race in a while...G35 [SKIP DOWN TO RED FOR RACES]
So I'm coming home from my girlfriends house last night, make a right onto the highway. Once I shifted into third, I ran the gear out like I always do at that turn, nothing crazy. I come to a stoplight about 1/2 mile down the road after that to make a left and head home. Well, while I'm waiting for green a car pulls up next to me to make a left as well. It comes to a hard stop, assuming he was flying to catch up, and I see it a G35. He starts to rev it like crazy, then nails it on green. [this intersection has a good 4ft slope to climb up at the end of the turn, hard to explain] Anyways, he just keeps bouncing it off the limiter while turning, gets loose, and ends up in the oncoming traffic's lane (Luckily it was midnight adn no one was coming). He lets off, straightens out and nails it down the street. Meanwhile, I creep out of the light watching this dumbass and not scratch on the bump, and proceed down the road, hoping to catch him, but seeing as its a bad spot to run (cops), I just go the speed limit. A little up the road, he slows down to run...
RACEs:
1st run- we slow to a ~45 roll so I put it in 2nd. he just takes off so I hit it and immmeadiately pull by him fast, and run until the top of 3rd. Didnt see the lengths as a turn was coming, but I knew I was way out in front.
2nd run- about a 50 roll this time, so still in 2nd. i try to honk it off, he goes on 2, so I hit it late again, let off at the top of 3rd and it looked to be 5-6 lengths.
I slow down to normal speed and he pulls up again, gives me the "rock on" sign, and nails it again. I let him go as I think I proved my point. First race in a long time, so puppy kicking had to suffice. He sounded stock, and also pretty sure it was a manual.
For any local guys: I was going on 94E and turning at mid rivers, if you know that stupid intersection.
