I've lost alot of races....Never lost at the track when I was driving. But one loss is worth mentioning. I lost to a riced out civic. I was showing off and blew a vital vacuum hose and although he jumped on me I couldnt catch up....

You lost to a civic? Agh.. that sucks. But, I mean hell.. if something like a vaccum line pops, you have an excuse. What all mods did he have?

3 or 4 times at least...
at the track to a meanass '69 camaro... also to a C5 Vette that sounded just as bad as the '69 camaro.
Both of those were when my car was stock and ran a 14.075 @ 99.75.
With intake and downpipe, ran a friend's BPU++ Supra from a roll before I was wise on "brake boosting" Lemme tell you, running vs a BPU++ Supra doing 20psi+ on a 60mph roll in a nearly stock RX-7 isn't a good idea.
Most of the time though, I have won or just didn't realize we were racing... *cough*hondas*cough*... Gotta love sitting at a stop light and laughing at the honda revving at you, then he takes off and hazards you, while you're still laughing and just putting the car in gear.
