I was coming home from work the other day. I was tired as hell, but that didn't mean that I wouldn't turn down a race when the opputunity arose.
I was at a traffic light waiting for it to turn green. There were no cars around me but I could see a few coming up in my rear veiw mirror. The light turned green, so I took off normally, but as soon as I go through the lights a Civic Si (probably a 94 or 94 coupe) went flying past me. I was going about 50km/h when this guy passed me. So I though, what the hell I need the rush, it was a boring night, lets have some fun. I speed up to about 80km/h to get side by side to the Civic Si. I look over and the guy notices me and my 240sx at his side. He gives a little nod and we gun it. I didn't down shift to third since I was at about 80km/h when we took off. It would have been better if I did, but anyway as soon as I slammed the gas I had pulled away on this guy about a cars length. He wasn't gaining or pulling away on me. I was at about 110km/h now and still had this guy by a cars length. Then I see some dense trafic up ahead, so I decide to slow down a bit. As I slow down to get side by side to the Civic to give him a thumbs up for the effort, the guy pulls a fucking fly-by on me. I was like "HELL NO!". So he gets in front of me and I pound the gas to catch up to him. We are now weaving through traffic at a speed of 140km/h and let me notify you that this street is a 60km/h zone. As soon as we duck throught the traffic we are again on an open street. Gunning it to the max I start to pull on this guy. I get right up to his side, and by no time I have a half car lead on the Civic. Before I pull away any more the Civic suddenly slams on the brakes. I look back to see what the fuck happened. Then I look in front of me, and guess what I see. Po-Po coming down the opposite side of the street. I hit the brakes to slow down to about 80km/h to avoid a situation with the cops. As the Crown-Vic passes by we come to a traffic light. The Civic pulles up to me and guestures by flicking his fingers, indicating either that we were kucky to spot the Po-Po or that indeed it was a sick race. We diecide to call it quits since there was quite a bit of traffic ahead, and the plus the Po-Po ruined my appetitie for another race. All in all I felt good that I was able to stay ahead of the Civic Si since my car is still stock. It seemed that the Civic was stock to, since I didn't see or hear anything that grabbed my attention when we were racing, like a exhaust system. I was pissed of a little when the guy pulled the fly-by on me. But I still felt that it was a cool race. Just wait till I drop a SR20DET into my 240sx.
Peace out to all!
