Yea, as you can tell, I have the greatest competition out here :P. For starters, I don't race much at all, only sometimes meeting someone else's taunts. I don't go driving specifically looking for competitors, in fact, I'd much prefer a sunday drive on 7 Lakes Rd, or some other windy 55mph road with 45 degree rises and falls https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png
So, this little event wasn't much of a race, in fact, its more of a "Touge" thing... I drive my 7 to school seldom; given most drivers there are either honda idiots that redline first gear in the parking lot, or female drivers....on cell phones. I'm leaving the parking lot and this ugly Blue RSX with some wild, curvey lip and sideskirt and ugly headlight masking (to make new shapes and holes and all that crap) is RIGHT on my butt. Chick driving. For some reason I get more tailgater's in the Fd than any other car I've owned both sports or not. Perhaps they are intimidated and feel like reversing the anxiety? Anyways, I turn towards a busy road that leads to the highway and she pulls right up behind me once again. Any time I lane change, she follows suit and stays attached to me. By this time my car's finally warmed up and I'm ready to leave her. The onway ramp to a highway I use is one long sharp 270 degree turn with that "Warning 25mph" speed limit sign...so I'm taking that (and so is she apparently) and decide to really push the FD around the corner at 65mph+. This is where I am laughing out loud as I can see she's only coming through half the turn and I just downshifted to 3rd on the striaghtaway as I boost to 85mph. At this point in time I have my hazards on as she finally comes around the turn and straightens out....so get this... She's trying to catch up, but mind you, I took the turn a lot faster and remained going 75mph from that point on and by the time she was catching up I was ready for my exit (its the first one that comes up)....which is ANOTHER 270 degree sharp turn. So obviously I slow down a bit in preparation and here she is again on my tail....soon as we reach the turn I downshift and then wave "bye-bye" to her in the rearview and pull the same buslengths ahead of her. By the time she reaches me to pass me at like 95mph or something I have to get off this highway to head home and she doens't even look over (Stares straight ahead) and just passes me. Eh, I'm bored, sorry it wasn't that interesting. |
You dont mess with an rx7 in the twisties, but you definetly dont mess with an FD in the twisties. Nice kill.
|
dude. that sounded like fun.. nice
|
pics?
|
Of her? of me? LOL You wanted me to take snapshots as i left her in the dust?! Heh. Matter-of-factly, I am getting a digicam for xmas and will have new pics of my car. what's neat is, everyone who sees me in town says they always notice the roll bar, and that it looks badass. I brought my car to a local auto show and everyone who recognized my car were like "Wow, this is the car I see around town! I always try and watch your car the most I can when you drive by, you can see that roll cage at night or day and at any angle! Badass.." |
what color is the cage and i meant of the girl, usually the ones in the rsx-es are hot

My Roll bars are all black, with Red 5pt. Racing Harnesses. Hmm, she was okay. Not ugly but nothing worth a snapshot from what I remember... Now, the girl we call "The One" that drives an Eclipse RS with a PA Liscence plate...that's a different story. LOL and to think she was showing me obvious signs of interest...and I did nothing! Bah. |
maybe she wanted to talk to you??

I was in that area on Sunday, a friend and I went to go look at an FD that he's going to buy. Nice kill...
|
Too easy. But nice kill. Always good to show people why cars have been rwd for peformance FOREVER.
|
my friend has an rsx-s was hers an S not that it really matters but from what ive seen girls drive bases guys drive type S's.
|
a honda is a honda and an fd is always gonna be better at the end of the day
|
nice kill
|

Got an FD? I am dieing to find some local owners to cruise with. We went to Warwick, yes I own an FD. I ran into a Viper on the way there on the twisty's, but we just cruised through the 30mph speed limit. On the way home I killed a 911 turbo on the thruway, I hit about 140mph. He tried to do a fly by when I was cruising at 70mph. the funny **** is after I killed the 911 turbo, I looked at my friend and asked him do you still want an FD and he laughed and said hell yeah. I'm not too local, it took me about 1hr 15min to get there. We should be there again in about 2 weeks to pick up the FD. Alex |

I baet up on one of those a while back when i had just gotten over the 1k mile on my rebuild....low boost and rev limiter set at 6k rpm and i was still 2 cars ahead when he decided he had enough...i was so amused by the kill i just kept taunting him and shootin flames at him!
It might have been a bad idea cause he might have driven away thinking with a few mods he can be dead even with an FD.....joke will be on him though Oh, nice kill btw....any time you wanna roll with us, youre more than welcome! |

It wasn't even a real "race" in the end... Manny & ALNY: Aim me: TigerDBR https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png |
Well...she does get better gas mileage than you!

LOL, this is true. But I get better gas mileage than her in my 92 Integra (33mpg!), so if I combine the two rates I get an average of 25mpg which is probably what she gets revvin' all the time. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png You sell your car or kept it or what? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png |

Huh? No. I could, but anyone, anywhere can see them if they just go to a highway ramp that needs to make a 270 degree turn, there's tons accross every highway...go find one and find out...most have "Warning 25mph" signs on them...I was doing at least 55... |
