Thumbs up so i uhh...raced a new gto!

im just cruisin along hawthorne blvd in torrance going home and this new gto gets on my *** and then takes off and i was like what was that? lol so i mash out and catch him and we start running down hawthorne, which is not the brightest idea by far because its cop central but thats alright. we bob and weave through the traffic and finally end up at a light both in the front! YES! seperated by a vw bus and a new mustang gt behind me with exhaust i wait for the stoplight christmas tree. rev to 3k and wait. light turns green and were off! seriously the best launch i ever did, no wheel hop just pure grip!!!!! i beat him through first and second and in 3rd he started to pull on me pretty good. but then 4th came around and it was bye-bye gto. i couldnt beleive how much i pulled on him at this point it was incredible! we get stuck behind some traffic for a bit and then hit some twisties up in palos verdes and i must say this guy was a good driver but still could keep up with the fd! he was a cool as guy though from the uk. he knew all about the fd and asked if i turned up the boost, when i told him no he was shocked. it was good times had by all!

until next time...

yeah they have the ls2 which is the corvette motor.(not the z06 one though) but its heavier than the vette i think.

i dont have too many mods but the gofast mods are apex intake with full exhaust (greddy ti, mp no cat) and a short shifter. but i have good tires and the goat had stock tires so im sure that helped me quite a bit.

Are you talking about me?

I PM'd you so I could go to a new spot to see races. I never asked to race you. I did ask someone else that had a 3rd gen RX7 though.

We have a misunderstanding. Read the 'West Community' forum on this same topic where I actually asked if I could come along and watch.. I have no desire to run any 400+rwhp cars..
