last night i was crusing around with some friends, we stoped to open the dump and hear a pretty loud wastegate, then see a honda. we all laugh and decide we can't have that car running around like it owns the place. so we follow him around a little bit, then he takes us to some open road where my friends getout and flag a quick race. i spool up about 2# and launch rather good for being on the street then hit the juick for a sec untill i spool up all the way. i look over and this honda is right beside me, dead even. we go for about another block and were still dead even, just before i let out to slow down for a stop sign he must have hit the button, he almost instantly jumped a car legnth on me. later he said that was just the vtec kicking in, but doesnt' that happen in the top of every gear?
i was only running 14# had a full tank of gas, cheap street tires, the race wasn't in my favor. if i would have sprayed a little more i think i could have easly walked away from him but i had to save the bottle.
i'll see him at the track tomorrow, where he thinks he'll run a low 11. and hes racing my friend with his 440 dart, that the honda guy thinks is just a small block. for $50. he'll get his.
