so....I finally did a lil race against my friend in his integra..and I couldn't figure out why I coudln't beat him off the line. we're both auto..I'm 170ish hp he's 140ish, I"m FR and he's FF and yet he kept up wif me....I didn't realize it was cuz I had 3 passengers wif me!! damn people....should've made them get out..lols.


any of you ever do something like this? like not realize why your car wasn't performing because of something stupid until after?

yeah i did some pretty thoughtless shit too.
time to share!
raced with my a/c on full blast on an uphill. hahahha.. i was like.. come on baby!! gooo!!!!
raced with nitrous on a level road with lotsa gravel.. thats the worse sound in the world when rocks n shit hit the underside of your car. but it was night.. how was i supposed to know? oh well.
i guess thats all i can really remember.. i guess its somewhat embarassing but whatever.. live n learn right.

well..turned out like we both expected ehhe

considering I had most of the advantages...

drivetrain: me(FR) him(FF)
power: me(170HP) him(140ish)
weight: him(just over 1.5 tons) me(over 1.5 tons)
power to weight ratio: me(apparently 50/50 but it dont' really matter here heh) him(prolly more weight in front than behind)
engine:me(inline 6 lols) him(4 banger..not sure wut set up or if he switched out to a B series engine or not
newer model: him(91) me(88)


we did best of 3 runs. I won all. my pick up killed him hehe. when we hit the gas mine hooked up right away and his was like 2-3 seconds slower. I was happy heh.
