Default Nice death tonight

Can't win them all. Lost to a 2k+ M6 SS. Still had dealer plates on it. That guy bought one nice car. The exhaust sounded sweet- looked like the SLP dual/dual by the big *** muffler hanging down, and probably headers. Had a way different tone than other SLP dual/duals I've heard, anyway. Tried to get the guy to stop and ask what all it had, but he just turned around in a parking lot. Only raced to 60 in town, but I knew my *** was had. I was seeing tail lights after my 1-2 shift. Guess that converter and shift kit aren't doing **** sitting on the floor of my garage.

At least, finally, there are some people around here that will run. It sucks to lose, but, damn, that is what more parts are for. And it was in an industrial area/ shopping area at night, not some neighborhood, like all the ricers want to run around here.

Some days the bear eats you, some days you eat the bear. At least you had the sack to race and then post the death. Props, bro.

I told you to get the converter put in, At least you didn't chicken out this time like you did against the vette.Hurry up and put it in then we will see what parts you need next maybe some laughing gas later.

That's what I figure, of course I had 2kFormula's *** in the passenger seat when I was losing, He's worth about .2 on a G-tech in the quarter. That back seat is looking pretty worthless, too.

Ditto, Sounds suspictious to me to. I also think that SS had more mods than he thinks.
