One Crazy Night

This from a few months ago. I was on my way to my job to pick up my pay check when I roll up to a light with a 1996-1998 Cobra next to me. I was simply admiring the car and he started reving and inching closer to the light. Me being myself I dont back down to anything,so I put ss and started brake torqing. By the time I hit second he had me 4 cars easy. Later that night, I was leaving a chinese carry out and I saw a 2005-2006 Honda Accord V-6 (six speed), learching and rolling back at a light,in front of me. So when the light changes I decide to follow him we both get on the highway,and as soon as we merged I downshifted in ss and floored it and he jump on it too. We started at about 60 and went up to about 120. He had me about 1-1/2 car lenghts,then we had to slow for traffic. Round two we started dead even at 70 and I let off at 135-140. Again he got me ,this time by about 2 car lenghts. After the race I realized that I had forgotten to turn the heat off. I think it would have been alot closer,with it off. No victories but alot of fun.

welcome to the board and nice killed might want to think twice about racing at such high speeds though.

a/c or heat should have nothing to do with you getting beat. the compressor clutch disengages when you go WOT.
