Ok I am turning around in this plaza and 2 ricers are up in there. Well I get back out on the main road and one follows me. I hit highway 94 and he is right up on my ass we clear traffic. We both downshift and drop it. Well he slowly begins pulling on me. His rear quarter panel is right at my front bumper then at 70mph I begin pulling back and by 85 I have pulled about a nose on him. Well we both see red lights in front of us. I am surprised he was this ******* fast!! Well I go to hit the brakes. The car doesnt respond! WHAT THE ****?!?!?!?! So I start standing on the brakes and she begins slowly slowing down. then the car stalled out. So I fire her back up and get her stopped at the light. Once stopped there is nothing but steam coming from under the hood. ****!!! So I pull off the road and into a gas station. She had over heated pretty badly. She didnt want to refire once in the gas station lot. Her coolant was just boiling! Very loudly! Checked my cooling fan and all. Nothing wrong!! WTF???

Well I got her cooled off and got her back to the house. I am going to replace the water pump and thermostat as a precaution. Will only cost me around 25 bucks for both... so I might as well.

So basically I beat a prelude with a cold air intake cams exhaust header throttle body chip clutch and full exhaust. Not bad... plus I did it all with a fouled out plug or 2.... (plugs look like ****... damn bosch platinums!) and overheating! BWHAHAHAHAHA



If only he had known that. Plus I walked him pretty good....

Well I guess I will have some downtime now.... ****.... oh well.... car is ok.. the plugs are pretty fucked from the overheating but no warped heads or anything. Damn I got lucky!

I was glad I won but pissed about overheating... but at least I beat a lightly modded Prelude while majorly overheating! hahaha
