When I asked him if he wanted to run, he gave me the "this isn't worth my time" look...
Needless to say he didn't have a damn word to say after!!!

Gotta love the 1/8th! Looks like grudge racing, just a win light? Do they even give you a time slip?

I almost messed with a 2013-ish Audi S8 today but had to turn off.  Glad I didn't, 11.9 bone stock!

Good thing you had to turn... My buddy has a G8 that runs dead with my car and got his ass handed to him on a highway pull by one of those!

I can't get those Audi boys to run with me, above it I guess, or don't expect a true challenge.... But, those BMW guys will try, now that's fun.
But, who would have ever thought a 'Taurus' even attempting a car almost 2x-3x the price....hehehe, love it!

Had little fun last night at the track.  During open time shots, I ran against a newer GTO 6.0 stick car.  We lined up, light turns green.  I'm gone.  Keep looking out the side windows, never say him.  All he saw was Taurus taillights.

Good kill...

Had a similar occurrence, we have a neighborhood (jackass) with a 06' GTO manual trans car with some bolt on's. Loud ass exhaust and this kid tears up the roads hauling ass everywhere. Laughed at me when I challenged him to race, but wasn't laughing after he got his butt handed to him. Wouldn't even come close to even say good run or piss off just turned tail and went the other direction. Needless to say every time I see him now I rub my eyes at him like I'm crying to rub it in. Gotta love a little arrogant smart a$$....

Yeah the funny part I left out was that when I challenged him to race and he (giggled, that's what little girls do) I said well lets race for some $$$. He said $200 so I said lets make it $500. At this point he starts back peddling and give me the lets just race for fun lol....

So I just got back from Mexico for the first time. I even surprised myself tonight. 2 Mustang GTs wanted a go, one from a dig, one from a 20 roll. I took 'em both down by at least a car length if not more!

Went to my local thursday meet, some dude was running his mouth about his prelude beating a friend of mine's rx8; I got tired of it and said "you wanna run my taurus"? All my friends know what my car is and went into fooling this kid into not even questioning what "SHO" stood for.

He asked if it had a v8. I laughed and said nah its FWD with a 3.5L v6 and stock(yeah right).. We make a run down to mexico for me to claim my $20 he bet without breaking a sweat, I think the last dig was the only time I went full throttle and launched on him which is why you couldn't hear the fart can anymore..

Coming back from Cars & Coffee....(in Mexico)
Driving home, several miles from the event, sitting at stop light, a bright yellow, beautiful, Corvette, with carbon fibre ground effects package, pulled up beside me. I looked over and grinned, he nodded.
Rumble, growl, he pulled forward of the white line a full car length ahead of me, racing the engine.
Light turns green, roar from the Corvette, and I jump ahead. As I go by, he panics, he then lights up his rear wheels, spinning as I drive away. Just to rub it in, as I'm driving away, I put my arm out the window motioning him to come on... He sure sounded ferocious.
I watched in my rear view, as he made a U turn before the next light...hehehe.
I've got to get a GoPro.
(Power is only awesome if you know how, or have the equipment, to put it down.)

I would have went right home and got those codes sent out.  Hopefully, you'll see that guy again and take him but good.

I used to have a stock Porsche 944 in the mid 2000's and would constantly have people in Lexus is250 cars (basically the base Lexus at the time try to race me on freeway and wonder how I could beat them in my old school Porsche.
