Smashed a 98 Windstar

I'm sittin' at the light mindin' my own business when some fool in a Windstar minivan rolls up. I've got the music up loud, and I'm not really paying this guy any attention. He revs repeatedly and I glance over to see him staring back at me... right then I knew it was on.

lookin' at the crossing lights waiting for yellow....red....GREEN!

We both get on it, we're dead even through first, I chirp the tires a bit going into second, thats when I really start to pull on him hard...roughly 15 seconds go by and I'm getting close to about 60 mph! (I can't tell how fast I'm going cause the speedometer is broke)

We're really bookin' it now... by the time I hit 3rd I'm a good 4 car lengths ahead of him. I hit my flashers to signal the win, and slow down enough to give him a thumbs up before I have to turn left.

Of course he does the traditional flyby... pissed cause he got 0wn3d by a 94 protege dx...

Its all about Mazda Speed

I wish I knew.

Actually I might get it back today, but it won't be driveable. One of the shocks will be stock, and the other 3 will have the coilovers.

All depends on whether or not the shop is done installing the 'kit'.

Why do people in Windstars think they are fast, all of these ladies around here in them seem to gun them and swoop even with the kids.

Naw... the Mazdas are pretty quick... my GF has a 2001 ES (1.8 liter) with a 5 speed, and I eat the Civics for breakfast...

Stock vs Stock of course....

I gotta read this racing forum more often.

what's really funny is that you know the year of the Windstar.
