Default Phoenix Race

well since i am trying to let us be here i am deciding to make my own thread on a car i kept up with today.

so... i was coming off 143 onto mcdowell when this carrera s comes shooting by me. i decided uhh what the hell and i tried to catch up to him. From mcdowell and 52nd street to 64th there are no lights so when i caught up i pulled it down into 3rd at ~55ish and then he hit it. He got an instant 1 car length on me untill my car went down into 2nd gear and i stayed at 1 car length behind him till about 115ish when i let off.

i had another person in my car, 2 full backpacks, and my woofer, amp and newly dynamated doors.

i would say this is pretty good for a Vert with some sorry *** bolt-ons.
