Default 2 kills last night in Japan.

I live in Nagoya Japan and last night I had a race for about ten miles on and off with a 2003 or so integra type r and a 1990 modified rx7 and just so you guys know my new stock 97 cobra was king. And the guy in the RX7 did not look happy when I draged his *** out of the hole and kept pulling away and then did it again at the next lights.They think USA cars are gas guzzling rubbish but last night these 2 lads learnt that if the mustang has the snakes on the sides dont **** wit it.lol

How do you know the years and if they were modified or not? Did you talk to them? Anyway, you killed 2 high 14-low 15 second cars. That is if the RX-7 was turbo... Good kills I guess. But N/A Cobras are still slow.

properly set up and tuned LSx cars can get over 25mpg even when making
more than 500hp
it must be cool to whip on them like that, but im sure u got to watch out for
JUN supra's and the like, 1000hp Skylines' and the other hi power cars
i always read about in the import mags over here
get some more mods for both cars

Now you must drift on the Wangan to earn their respect. To some people that means more.

J/K. Nice man.

One thing to consider too is they they dont run their cars on 91 octane **** tunes over there. 100 octain is widely available AFAIK. So I bet a RX7 turbo is a significantly faster car out of the box over there. Even NA you can run a bit more timing on the exact same car over there. That 4V might really benefit in fact

Always getting so defensive with anything that has to do with Japanese import and a loss.

"Too bad. What if." On and on with your yapping.

Dude, did you read this? Just shutup, I wasn't talking to you. Good explanations will never get a post asking a question. This one however, sucks *****. I hope to one day see more detailed kill stories. BTW, imports lose every day, as well as domestics. Big deal. I didn't say "Too bad" or "What if". I asked questions.

"LOLERZ I Killed A Turbo 408 Camaro in my Civic OMG WTF GTFO!!?!?!?!"

Would you have questions about this kill? Exactly.

Your correct. Imports lose every day. Domestics lose once a month though.

Kind of weird. A lot of people like US cars over there. You need to find one of the large American car clubs over their.

this is getting rediculous.

Thread #1:
"Hey guys, I had a close race today with some import, If I would have sprayed I would have beat him good though"
"LS1ina7: If this and if that, but what if................"

Thread #2:
"Hey guys, I beat some ricer today in an rx7 today by a few cars by 60"
"LS1ina7: You wanna race my ricer? If he woulda sprayed he could of beat you, or if he had this that or the other swap he coulda walked you"


It's getting really old man, can't you just say nice kill or something?
