Not really kills, but might as well post
Ok, got 3 to post, kind of sad kills really.
First one: I'm in the FD driving through a main road (about 45mph) with my girl early one afternoon and come to a stop light. A woman in a lincoln pulls up to my left and looks over to me like I'm driving a pinto with a big smile on her face (you know, one of those "you don't deserve to even kiss my ***" looks) my girl sees this and rolls her eyes. I'm sittin here thinkin this woman is out of her mind. My girl turns to me and says, be careful, the two lanes merge into one a little ways after the light). So I'm like, ok, not that big of a deal. All of a sudden the light turns green and the lincoln actually chirps its tires and begins to pull off (at this point I'm thinkin a mmix of wtf and this chock is just stupid). So I feather the clutch a little to retain traction and then slamp the x as soon as I'm out of the no-traction zone. I fly by this woman within a second and as I'm drivin by she looks over with a look of "what the hell is going on" and "holy $hit". Needless to say I made it first into the merge and my girlfriend was smiling the entire way home. (mod at the time: boost gauge and downpipe).
Second one: I'm driving one saturday morning headed over to my girlfriend's place on the parkway. There is a 2 lane exit coming up in about a 1/2 mile which turns into a winding 2 lane road. In my rear view I can see this yellow '00 celica weaving through traffic trying to get ahead on the right of me. So I pay this guy no attention and then all of a sudden he is next to me on the right and reving his engine. I'm like ok, let's see what he's got. (about 1/4 of a mile to go before the exit). So I punch the gas and leave him like he was standing, get off the gas after a few seconds and the jerk keeps on speedin past me and cuts me off to get in the same lane in front of me, so I'm thinkin ok, here we go. So he takes the exit the same as me, I jump into the further right lane as we both exit and the road becomes a winding 2 lane road. I keep to the outside lane and keep level on the gas, slightly accelerating just enough to push the car forward but stay in the primary turbo only. The celica didn't stand a chance. Going through the first left turn I gain about 2 cars, going through the second turn (right) I gain like 3 car lengths. By the time the road straightened out, the celica was a good 100 yeards behind me. He never pulled up next to me after that. (mods at the time: downpipe and boost gauge)
Third:
As I'm approaching a toll booth on the parkway, a dropped 5 series bmw is weaving through traffic behind me. I'm just admirin the paint job and look of the car, the owner really had done a nice job on the body work. So I pull into the toll booth and he pulls into the one next to me. we both start pullin out, I hear him honk his horn once and slam on the gas (squeals his tires for a sec). So as I'm already going over 10mph I figure traction should be good and I hit the gas. Between 10-60 I had a good car length on him, had to shut down as we came up to a corner with a cop posted. As we got past the cop trap the bmw peels out, didn't chase after him cause I figure if I can take him in first and second I'd rape him in third. (mods at the time, downpipe, catback, and boost gauge)
