Yes, oh yes.
Dragon, Igy, Rutt, Danmanfd3, JAlers, Jerk_Racer, and I all went out for a night of Drag racing the streets of Okinawa. We're heading down south and one of Dragons' intercooler pipes blew off, so we pulled over and watched him fix it.
WELL, somehow we start talking about Honda's and FD's and how not all Honda's are slow. So I chimed in with a smart *** comment and Rutt replies with one in return....which leads us wanting to race each other. So we head down to Aja to watch them drift...but the cops showed up and we bailed.
Me, Rutt, JAlers and Danmanfd3 all took off in one direction, while the rest of the posse went the opposite direction.
As We're going back, me Rutt and Danmanfd3 get caught at a light. I look over at Rutt and Danman and we all know that there's going to be a race....
We do a 1st gear roll with me honking 3 times...and I pull away from Rutt's t-04E Powered Honda!!!!!!
...then he pushes the gas down He blasts past me quickly and I shift into 2nd gear. I have him in my sights, but he's steadily pulling away. We get to about 3rd gear and he's got a good 2 cars lengths on me....and then we get caught by a red light. Then we decide to do it from a launch.
Everyone knows that FWD sucks for launching, so I'm praying that I don't **** up my launch. Light turns green and I dump the clutch at 6500 rpms!!!! I hole shot it with a minimal amount of wheel spin and I'm gone...leaving Rutt behind. I can hear his wastegate cracked wide open as he's slowly creeping up on me. I shift into 2nd and then into 3rd gear and I can see him gaining!!!!! ...
We do it one more time from a roll when all of a sudden his wastegate dump pipe blows off and we have to stop to pick it up.
The worst part of all of this is that I GOT IT ALL ON VIDEO!
GO FAST MODS AS FOLLOWS:
Non-Sequential twins, Apexi Power FC, FEED front pipe, Borla XR-1 midpipe, JIC Bullet type 1 exhaust, open air intake, pulley's, FEED FMIC, OS Giken twin plate clutch, nitto 555R 275/40 Rear, HKS twinpower ignition, No A/C P/S and the interior is gutted....that covers the go fast parts. There's more, but coil over's don't make that much of a difference on a drag race.
