can i take him?

ok, i'm going to race this kid with a tricycle next weekend. he has naws stickers on the back steps, handle bar streamers, an orange flag, and performance white walls. i'm na with a few exhaust leaks and bald all-seasons. any chance i'll beat him? what should i do?


sorry i just had to since there is always a 40 page long thread in the 2nd gen tech section about someone worried they'll get beat by someone's minivan. 1) race and stop worrying. if you lose, you lose. work to go faster next time. 2) it seems all 2nd gens do is street race. and whine and worry. its a tech section. not a race team trying to configure your car so you can beat that del sol running naws and a sideways viser with the bling. anyway, i just wanted to vent a little. feel free to tell me why you want altezzas.

The higher up you are the slower you think you are going.

PS- I saw an Astrovan at my local strip run a 14.5 and I almost lost it!! That thing also won the burnout competition. Turns out it had a supercharger and a holley carb on that thing.

Everyone tries racing me when I am in my TII. Win some, lose some. My friend always kills me in his FD though, someday he will be mine, I wish.
