hey that past couple of days ive been going to a popular " *** Dragger" Hangout looking for trouble. ANd as you expected i found it. ITs called astoria park in queens nyc. Everytime im driving home and i jump on the Grand Central Parkway theres is always a honda thats wants some action. And boy do we go at it. We race from 30 st to 111 street doing like 105-120mph average on the grand central like at 3am. My girl to my suprise was actually having fun. Not like any of us won or raced for any monetary value (buti was ahead most of the time so i technically won) but we were ******* around and going at it. We were both slowing down and looking at each other and taking off. The car was fast but i catched up to it and surpassed it hearing my engine hit the 6000 RPM mark as it screamed to the next gear. And my Automatic Rex was showing him my s4 tailights and i was happy and so was my girl she was like " Get him baby". Some corolla was trying to play with us but he couldnt keep up. I look thru myrear view mirror and as im exiting the GCP i see the honda in the back and the corolla spining out. Another victorious day for Wankels lil babies. The Little Red Rotary Rocket Strikes back. Check my page out and let me know what u think of my car.

yeah the guy in the corolla spun out cause the floor was wet becuase it rained earlier. Luckily he didnt die or kill himself he slid into the green section on the side of the highway. But i slowed down to make sure he was ok then i continued on my merry way

You went 120 on wet road? Road tires reaches hydroplane velocity around 70-80mph, specially designed treading (such as aqua tread) gets a little better wet traction (mybe 80-90) after that you are water skiing. And you went 120 without losing control, while a car that isn't going nearly as fast as you spunout? What's wrong with this picture.

glad to hear you had fun but please be careful on wet roads, i lost a friend in a 300ZX who hydroplaned and he wasn't going anywhere that fast..although the highways slow lane's erosion (where water tends to pool) didn't help any. have fun but be cautious on wet roads esp. when there's water.

hell I drive like a granny having a seisure (speed wise not control) when it's wet outside. I went fast one time....it scared the hell out of me and I did a 360...so I decided to always drive slow in wet.

Yeah on a wet road i'v been told never go above 1/4 power. And speeding like nuts in NYC i dont knwo if i had the ***** to do that. Dont you guys have mad amounts of cops up there. Hell where i am you wont see a cop on some of the roads but once a year and other's they dont either care about or want to go on. They all stick to the highways and towns. Youll see a cop on 70 or the turnpike every couple of miles sometimes if your out at bad times. I woudl never speed like that on the freeway.
