lost to a 3rd gen 6spd today :-/

well apparently i met a fellow acurazine member today. i ran into "Final" from the 3rd gen boards today... i was driving normal on my way to class in a 35mph ... and i see this black 3rd gen on my ass... so we both make a left onto a road that's a 50mph and opens up into 2 lanes... it was wide open so i got in the left lane and gunned it... not too long after he got into the right lane and floored it im assuming lol... and he started to overtake me then eventually passed me i cut it off at about 80 b/c i was approaching another car in my lane and he already had me (i didnt have VSA Off and i was not in SS mode) but im pretty sure even if i did turn them off and put it in SS the outcome would've been the same. anyway we pulled over n chatted for a bit and that was it congrats on the kill for him haha.... now sadly i have more of a desire to mod with money i dont have at the time

^ Just for the sake of it... The CAI will actually make you lose low end tq, but will help you in the high end.

Nice race though

haha, no harm in losing to a 6spd. AT for AT would be good, but don't feel bad about losing to a 6MT. I'm not even convinced MY car could take a 6MT
