Default killed a supra....

Ok, so maybe it was an 1987 supra, and maybe I was in my 1999 tahoe, but I still won.

Saturday night I went to the "races". Its basically a bunch of ricers meeting in a parking lot, then all leaving at once to drive down to an industrial area, where they get in a few dangerous races, until a cop shows up and turns on his lights, and everyone freaks out and crashes into eachother. then they go back to the parking lot, wait awhile and do it again. I went to see the commotion, and cause a few friends would be there. After seeing everyone scatter I decided that this wasn't the place for the Transam, went home and switched out for the tahoe.
A kid I know was there in his 1987 supra. dont know what motor, but definitely not anything good. its a five speed with an open rear and a fart can. So on the way home he trys to run me from a 50 roll, as a joke, and is only able to pull MAYBE a car on me. then we come up to a light, light turns green, tahoe and supra take off, and I immediatly walked away. lol.

tahoe had 4 people, myself included, and maybe 3 gallons of gas in it. supra had no passengers.

It has now beaten an olded f250, a chysler 300 v6, a ford probe, and a supra. lol, It has more kills than the T/A.

Lol, nice kill.

When I was running the Evo yesterday, there was a Supra at the gas station. They stopped and asked it, and it was N/A...asked him to run and he went to follow around the building (so we thought) and pulled out. There was also an STi...he was inside getting his food, but revved at the Evo and said he'd run. Got his food and left out when we thought he was coming around again. And some diesel Chevy did a ricer flyby of the gas station leaving it...and then some Tiburon or something revved behind the diesel. It was rather eventful in a way after I think about it...but then again not really. Damn ricers.

Nice kill. Pretty sad when a big suv loaded down with 4 people can beat your car. Lol.

You guys have it better than I do down here in MS. Just a bunch of trucks, a handful of LS1 cars (one on 20's and one on 22's), a crap load of v6 cars, and a 5.4 swapped mustang that's riced out to hell and back by a 40 year old crackhead.

Well over 2 tons good sir. I think it's like 5100, plus 600 lbs in passengers, 100lbs in tools, a bmx bike and a sub and amp. Lol. Not to mention its on 32 inch tires. With high mileage.

I raced an 09 Tahoe in my 4.3L 2000 Blazer. I would pop it into 4Hi and then I'd pull about half a car off the line and stay there until 50ish or so when he'd pass. LOL

Sometimes the slow races are better.

Good run. I don't even have a slower car that I could bring out anymore, and it seems all I run into are 16 second cars over here. Good thing you didn't bring the TA. Sounds like a clusterfuck.

lmao^ I actually had the T/A at first, and met another dude with a nice T/A. But after watching everyone be animals, I was like this is not for my car, so I ran home and swapped out for the truck.

Sad part is it was probably still one of the quicker vehicles.
