Default A loss in SloHo

This guy showed up out of nowhere last weekend and said:
"Im glad your here, nothing else here is worth racing. Wanna run for some cash?"
this guy showed up in a LaSabre or some other W-body. I asked him what he had in the car and he replied: " Paxton blower, A/C delete, powersteerig delete, boltons, thats all i am saying....I wont pop the hood or the trunk."
I replied "well, you know i had a GTP that was bad *** about a year ago..i know all about that stuff, but yeah we can run...50 bux?". Which is the truth...i had a 99GTP, cam, headers, lots of boost, nitrous, race tranny, etc etc.
He replies"Yeah...but im gonna be on tires", I said "Ok"
"Well, i gotta go get them."
"Ok"
"They are brand new, and we will have to run for ***** and giggles while i break them in...blah blah"
So he starts crawfishin on me. Anway, we agree to race for free, cause i now know whats goin on...he's bullshitting and just wanted to look cool. So, i decided that if i am going to race for free, im not wasting my gas. So i let him win..which was harder than i thought...cause he was reall an L36 car that was stock! I had to let out...granny shift..blah blah...But i was going to hustle him...so i tried my best to make it look good. But i was sure he wasnt going to buy it. It was horrible! But he did!! In fact, we raced twice! Listen to this joker after the races about how he won!
