Well I just got my car back and I am running a Mazda reman with a GothamRacing aggressive street port done by Steve Kan, and the BNR stage 3's at stock boost for now but that will be changing very soon. So lets get down to the nitty gritty. The first night I went out to find some races a 02 ram air trans am decided to try his luck with me so I give it a little gas and he hears the turbos spool up and decides to run on the high way which just set himself up for failure. So we fight our way threw traffic and we line up and do a 60 punch and I killed him right off the bat, pore T/A he didn't even stand a chance. So after all that I go back to the strip and as soon as I get on the strip this red 300ZX that I had been hearing about comes along and ask if I would race him, so of course I told him yes so we go to this dead end and he honks three times and I do a low rpm take off due to the traction problems I have at this dead end, and baby the shift from first to second and during all of this he is some what next to me then I finally floor it and pull like 2 cars on him instantly and then I slam into third and pull god knows how many more cars on him so I just let off before the end of the 1/4. So after that kill I decide to go cruse some more and eventually find my way back to the same dead end and see some of my friends just chilling out so I pull in and talk to them and they asked if I have seen the black ZO6 that has been cruising around and as soon as they asked that what do you know the black ZO6 comes haling *** down the strip so my friends ask if I would like to race him so I decided to try my luck and agreed to race him. so we go to line up and this guy is flagging us so he raises his hands and before he drops his hands the ZO6 decides he wants to go before the guy drops his hands so right off the bat he gets one and a half cars on me so I take off and decide to slam second not worried about traction and it pay's off, second gear starts to pull him back in and I slammed third gear and all I feel is the car just grabbing at the road and I shoot out in front of the ZO6 and pull about a car and a half on him and from what we can see from the video that my friend had I just started to pull away. After that race I talked to the guy in the ZO6 and asked why he jumped the start but he really had no reason so I asked him if he wanted to race agene but he decided not to race me agene. Then for the last race I got was a black SS. I see some V8 guys talking so I rolled up in their paring lot right off of the strip and this one guy just starts to star at me so I just give the 7 a little gas so the guy dashes in to his SS and romps on it and looks at me so I revved it agene then he pulls out the parking lot and gets right next to me and wants to do a run from 45mph so I just started to grin thinking he just signed his life away. So sure enough we do the three honks and punched it and lets just say that I never even had to go into third gear, that's how freaking hard I pulled on him right off the bat and we did one more run after that from 45mph and it was the same exact thing didn't even go into third. I guess you could say that it was a very good night for the 7.

Hey Drifter in you sig it says who needs p/s. Does that mean no power stearing? Driving with no power steering is a bitch because today my belt poped off after going through a puddle and I had to literaly fight the wheel to get the car going strait.
