Well i just got the FD and tonight was the first time i got to test her out. Now im going from a NA 87 FC to this modded FD and this thing actually scares me, and i know im not "that fast". Well rollin along the local road where people tend to drag a lot i see what i knew to be at least a lancer. I didnt see the big spoiler at first so im thinking its just one of those OZ rally editions or some other lancer model but when i get close the spoiler comes into view and I knew it was on. I roll up next to him and he looks over and just smiles, "the typical response ive gotten ever since I had my car" and he downshifts and so do I into second. I let him go first because I wanted it to be a fair race. Now I've heard these are fast but from like a 35+ mph roll I made this guy look like he was standing still. I dont know how many cars i pulled on him right away but it was pretty bad. We went again, and then again and we went up to about ide say 90-100 and every time i spanked him. He was obviously bone stock but he didnt look to pleased. We never hit a light thank god cus I am still learning to drive and launch so if he knew how to launch the Evo then he might have actually had a chance. Well he rolls down his window so I roll down mine and hes like cmon man just one more, ill get you this time, but I said nah, cya around and turned left going to where I was headed. For my first race ever in the FD Ide say I was pretty pleased.

Sweet kill man, it seriously amazes me how much speed you can get out of a FD with those mods. AHHHHHH, can't wait!!! (Of course my Pettit downpipe has been on backorder for 3 weeks now )
