Crazy Little Run

I was on the highway and I had an S-15 Silvia replica behind me and a Mercedes CLK430. The CLK430 was harrassing the Silvia and they took and I followed. That CLK430 was quick and the Silvia was insane too. Well we all got the same light and there was a G35 Coupe there, needless to say it was on. Then a riced out Civic shows up ( one clear altezza light and one carbon fiber ) I took VSA off knowing I'll need all the help I can get. We all take off and they all got me off the line like I was standing still and couldn't get no closer to 4 to any of them. I then realized my trunk was loading with crap, 2 bags of rice, set of mufflers, baseball equipment, and baby stroller. Well atleast I beat the civic

Platano, you seem to be getting beat by a lot of cars lately that you should be able to keep up with (ie. CLK430). Maybe you should check your actuator. A bunch of people had problems with it and didnt even realize it till they went to the track.

The problem is everytime I get someone to play with, I have a trunk full of crap. 2 20lb bags of rice, a set of Comptech Mufflers waiting to get installed, 3 wooden baseball bats, bases, and helmets, plus a stroller. I will get that checked though, I'm supposed to go to the dealer soon and get new foglights. Thanks for the heads up..I just remembered you're right that CLK430 aint that quick he must of been modded because he took off on that Silvia and G35.

Vehicle Stability Assist
It applies braking when there is a loss of traction.

The VSA button on the left side of the steering column. Did your car come with an owner's manual by any chance? If so, you should read it before posting.
