To race or not to race: Cocky guy with RX-8 75 shot $100

got a phone call today from a friend saying that some cocky ******* around my town is willing to race anyone for 100 bucks. This guy has a stock rx-8 with 75 shot kit on it. I guess this would make around 240rwhp?

I'm quite frankly afraid to boost over 10psi anymore on my FD. I'm just done with the street racing. I used to run around with 338rwhp at 15psi maxing out my injectors until I wrecked and had to replace my sub frame and gramlight.

I'd need to retune my PFS over 10psi as I deleted the map in promising to myself I would never beat on this engine anymore.

So at 10psi I dynoed 258rwhp. Should I run this guy for 100 bucks on the interstate? I just feel like a Dousche Bag trying to beat another rotary. Sounds very high school. All these people around here are talking this thing way up as if I've already agreed.

He might just blow it up before you get the chance to race.

i dont usually condone this kind of behavior but the 8's arent that great. and if he run's out of "nos" he's fucked. soo put him in his place and run him. he need's to know his role.
