Default Got my first kill.

I talked my wife into going to a local meet (Barnes & Noble) on friday night right before MTI's Dyno day. We were headed up 2351 when I see two motorcylces a Suzuki 750 or 1000 not sure mire than likely the 750 though and the other guy was on a Honda ( He turns at the light) so the other guy (Suzuki) is next to me at the light he looks and listens. WHen the light turn green he launches hard and then just sits there in first gear reving etc... So I look at my wife and I said what the heck so I punch it and I get just about even with him by the time he punches it it was pretty even and then at the top of third I start pulling him and by the time I am in fourth I am about a half a fender inf front of him and then he lets out of it @ 120mph. I was like hell yeah I knew my car ran good but I haven't been in a race since I modded it etc... Just to give you guys that don't know me I have an 02 with Heads cam and a Vortch S/C. To make things even worse for him is that the next day at MTI I found out I am running on a hurt motor (cracked piston or something simular.) with at least one dead hole if not more. But since I am going to be replacing pistons ETC... I thought I'd get my few minutes of bragging in LOL!

its always great to kill a bike. I have raced a few, just for ***** and giggles. Never won though, came close on a CBR600f4i but I think the guy didnt know how to drive b/c his shifts sounded really slow. Anyway, great kill.

Bike riders are always the best kills, because they're the most arrogant. I took a couple on the freeway when I had my Vette, and they generally got pissed off about it.

I also raced a buddy of mine on whatever the badass black Honda bike was in around 2000. He WOULD have kicked my *** royally, but some guy pulled out in front of him and he missed him by about a foot. Kind of put a damper on racing activities for the rest of the evening.
