Default ls1 t/a beat by a saturn ion

ok so it's me and my budies are driving back from the beach when this ion full of chicks pulls up next to us. The light turns green and i go at a normal rate, my car is pretty loud so maibe the chicks thought we where laing down the smack down so they take off. I thought what the hell bunch of chicks let me entertain them. Well to my surprice or lack there off i get horrible wheel spin and they beat me by like a whole city block. AT this point my budies decide to get their heads down so the ricers in the 240 sx behind us wouldn't see them riding with me. AT this point i pretty much realice what a dumn *** i was, for racing a front wheel drive car in the rain with super el cheapo tires on, a few days after i bought the car, and yes i did kick my self in the *** latter. IT sure was a humbling expirience

I don't care if there's snow on the ******* ground. Learn to drive that thing. You've just opened up a enormous can or worms. Every Ion owner is now going to think they can beat an LS1.

Dude, a Saturn? Please tell me you were tanking to get some pink or something. I know you had bald tires, too bad you didn't hook up with some bald ION....

Did you launch in reverse by mistake? I don't care if you had the whole brady bunch in with you and you were on bare rims...an ls1 should eat an ion.

Just tell everybody it was a 1 off in-line 3 cylinder firebird with no muffler, and you just put the LS1 in this morning.
