Great day!
Well, i started my day off early working on the FD. I installed my Fluidyne and Greddy pullies. I took pix and was gonna do a write up but then i realized it's been done several times already so oh well.
Anyway on to the action. I was out cruising and hop on the expressway and see 2 crotch rockets. I get next to them and downnshift. As I lay into the throttle i notice him bounce up and get ready to pop a wheelie. So I let off the throttle so i could get a good view and i popped a fireball right next to him... oops. i guess he got a little spooked bc he wouldn't lift it up anymore. damn!... note to self....don't pop flames near motorcycles.
Later that night a yellow C5 comes rolling up on me so I downshift to third @ about 60 and sat there waiting for him to make the move. He wouldn't hit it so I goosed it a bit and let off. as soon as i let up i here him go. I lay back into it and pull about 2 cars on him b4 letting off. happy with the results i continued on my way. I guess the Vette didn't wanna go out like that bc he passed me and slowed down again. so i drop it back to third and wait.... and wait..... and wait.... The guy still wouldn't go.
so i goose it again and sure enough as soon as i let off he takes the hit. well this time he actually pulled in front of me. I quickly stopped his pull and began my own. By fourth gear i and walking past him and he lets off.
FD-2
C5-0
Well the Vette onwner seemed pretty shocked and asked me to pull over so we got off the highway and pulled into a Taco bueno. and talked be a bit. he said it was a stock A4. the first run he left it in OD. And on the second he said he dropped to third. I asked if he wanted another run ( i really wanted a head up run with me break boosting). But he declined and said everytime i shot a flame he though it was cops behind us lol. Anyway he was a nice guy and we complimented each others cars and went our seperate was.
I drove around a little longer and decided to head home and pass the local "spot" 1 last time on my way to the house. As I pass by I see a familiar looking car pulling out. It was one of my bud's FDs I think his SN is 94touring. and i also see Apneablue pulling out behind him. I threw a rev, flipped a bitch and followed them back onto the highway. Once there was ample room to play I pull out front to line up with Apnea. I wanted a heads up run (with me Break boosting of course) to see how long it would take for him to walk my *** like he always does. but being the generous type he waves me forward for the move. Oh well no break boosting for me tonight =( I took the hit from 3rd @ about 60 once again. I think he let me get about a 1.5 to 2 cars before he decided to end my short lived lead. by 120 he caught right back up with me with ease and let off. no biggy, the 7 can't loose I guess lol.
All and all it was a pretty fun day. and I haven't seen the other rotor heads in months so it was good to catch up a little.
Thanx for reading!

hey whats up Cyan. i saw you and david JUST as you guys were leaving the spot going to 51 west doing what i presumed was a run. i met up with russell and we chatted for a bit. pretty cool. didnt bring the rex as i need to put a replacement turbo inlet duct on it. im gonna try to put in the flywheel and possibly port the manifold and such tomorrow as well....not sure how that will work out as far as time factor is concerned. anyway, i have weekends off for the most part now, so maybe ill see you around next time.

What's up bud. I would have stopped in C&T but I was wearing a wife beater and didn't have a jacket lol. a little chilly for my taste. I usually have weekends off too but latley my workplace has been giving out overtime like it's going out of style. I'm probably gonna take the girlfriend out tomorrow but good luck with the flywheel install and intake porting. give me a call sometime. PM me if you don't have my # and i'll give it to you.

Sounds like fun 
. David Lee's car kicks ***, I remember when it was at Gotham and pushing it in and out of the garage every day, lol. I wish I lived closer so I could rip around OK with you guys......waaaay back in 2000 I was at Fort Sill (lawton) for Field Artillery Officer Basic Course, my first top speed run to 170 mph was held on the highway between sill and okc
