Default Raced a GT w/ 4.10s and 100 shot VIDEO

Me and a buddy were riding around looking for races and finally come up on a guy and his girl in a pretty clean looking 03-04 GT and here is how the conversation went.

ME: You wanna run?
HIM: (LAUGHTER) You dont want none of this.
ME: Um why is that?
HIM: Cuz this aint no honda civic.
ME: (LAUGHTER) Im willing to take my chances.

He told me to meet him at an undisclosed location somewhere in mexico in like 10 minutes. I kinda thought he was trying to ditch me and avoid me the rest of the night, but i wasnt going to be the one who didnt show up. After the race i figured out he just needed to open up his bottle.

He said he left his traction control on so i offered another race but then he was said it wouldnt make much of a difference.

You can probably here my clutch slipping in the vid. It actually completely burned up on the way home dropping it into 4th passing a semi Hopefully ill have it fixed with my tax check though

Nice slaughter! Even if he had full bolt-ons (LTs, plenum, etc), he still wasn't anywhere near 400rwhp. Got any numbers for your car?

I've seen the acceleration vid and pics you've posted.

Nice kill, nothing like crushing a cocky SOB.

PS...I want to have sexual relations with your car.

It put down 392/376 before i did the head swap ( AFR 205s 59cc) I havent had it on a dyno yet but i know it picked up a good bit because it felt like a whole new car

I really doubt anybody is going to complain... I'd say there is easily a 50rwhp difference in this race. It maybe shouldn't have been QUITE as bad as it was, but it was certainly going to be a murder. Do you know if it was an automatic or a 5spd OP?

Killing a cocky **** in front of his girl probably felt great. Nice kill.
