Thread: Not too proud of it, but a kill is a kill

Coming home today coming out of town I notice this guy in his ultra-cool 4 door Cavalier complete with the rice burner exhaust "upgrade." We get out of town and I kinda get on it.....not too much, more than usual, but this guy is riding my tail. Now out of town he still riding my @$$ even though I'm doing 60 (ok, maybe a bit more) in a 55.......we get maybe 5 miles out of town or so and I see him whipping out to pass me.....and of course I can hear him too. He gets beside me and I'm already picking up speed when I catch him looking over at me.......I ended up letting off about 85 cause I had a fairly good distance on him and we were coming up on a stop sign which was also my turn off.
I know it's not the coolest kill, but a kill is a kill if you ask me.....especially against a ricer.


Cool story right bro?

Video or it didn't happen.

That cavi should have so smoked you with that huge ass fart pipe.

I would hope a 3.8 would beat a 2.2ecotec...

You have obviously never raced a Cavy with an exhaust... they are beast

I have... In my POS Daily Driven Honda...

Vtec > Ecotec all day, everyday.

Seeing and hearing the fart can had me shaking in my shoes, but he was no match for the open sunroof.

and dont say you raced a pontiac g5 OR Cobalt and smoke the ecotech, cause they are heavier and crappier gear ratio then a cavy or sunflower.

I raced a pontiac G5 and a Cobalt with ecotech and smoked them.

I played with a Cobalt SS on the highway once... it was fun... it was pretty even

..... My wife has a 02 Cavy Z24 with that 2.2 ecotech... That thing is like a go cart next to my gtp.... I wouldn't even believe it would beat a NA 3.8

stock 2.4 ld9 or 2.2 ecotech 5speed is 15.5-16 seconds some people can get lil lower times if they know how to launch. exact range of our mighty 3800 n/a.
trust me guys im no sunflower or queeraliers hugger im just saying they are competion to 3800 n/a w-body's. the 5 speed manual anyways.

By competetion, I hope you mean like a race to A.I.D.S.
