BG Racing Action
Well guys there was some street action in Bowling Green. I personally raced (or tried to) my TR all week long excluding friday. For starters, I tried to race no less than 4 vettes and 3 ricers- none of them would go. The only races I ended up with were other TRs.
Friday-Believe it or not there were 4 of us in my friends GN and we raced a Supra on Firday night about 1:30 am after the streets had started to dry. Nice Black Supra with big 17 inch wheels, big exhuast. We ended up beating the Supra both from a roll and from a stop. The kids in the Supra were good sports about losing to a GN with 4 people in it.
Thursday-On thursday evening there was a cruise night at Toots and a Plymoth Cuda got on it a couple of times leaving the parking lot of the cruise. I jumped in my Ttype and chased him to a four lane street where everyone could see. At 30 mph I nailed it, spun through 2nd gear, and shut it down. To my disapointment, he would not race although he sure seemed quite confident in the parking lot. Anyone whitness this???
Wensday-At Autozone parking lot a kid in a mid 90s Camaro came rumbling through reving his very healthy sounding moter. My friend chased him for like 5 miles in his 86 GN trying to get this kid to race. He finally got a light and the kid actually told us that he didnt want any from the GN but he was gonna go and get his friends. HA!
Tuesday-One ricer had a full racing harness on and no less than 3 TRs tried racing him and of course he wouldnt go. This car was ridicules- stickers, wheel covers, twin fart cans you get the picture!I video taped the punk as we honked at him and taunted him to race and we couldnt get him to even look over at us. It was so funny!
Next year we hope to street race even more although Johny Law is starting to come down on street racing from my understanding. From what I heard from locals,in Bowling Green if your caught street racing your going to jail for the night.
