  • Went street racing tonight in a school zone

    Haha Just kidding.... about the school zone part at least

    So tonight i finally got my festiva running properly with the turbo setup, here's the back story for that (in the arena)



    So to celebrate, i went for a cruise to another town to see some car guys, show off my festiva etc. so while standing in the parking lot, a riced out focus goes by that i've seen drive around many times before, the guys always flooring it like its the fastest thing on the street, even my buddy's were saying how the guy just talks his car up too much and is just too cocky about it

    So me and my buddy's got joking around that i should race the guy and show him up, big time..... a little while later he drives by again so i tell my one buddy to jump in and we take off after the guy.... up the road i see him sitting at a red light (4 lane road) in the right lane, as i was pulling up the light turned green and i was in second gear and as we got beside the focus, my buddy sticks his arm out the window and yells "come on keep up!!" so the focus just floors it... me still in second, i waited til he was beside me looking like he had a chance, then i dropped the gas pedal, tires start squealing like dying pigs, i hit 3rd gear, tires still squealling and the focus just gets further and further in the mirror, me and my buddy laughed

    So the focus turned off on a side street, i turned around to go back to the rest of the group, when i get back to the lights i first met the focus at, it was red, a car was in the left lane which i pulled up behind, then wouldn't you know it, the focus pulled up in the right lane..... light turned green he floored it, so i dropped it down and switched to the right lane and in no time was right on his bumper haha

    a bit further up the road, i get beside him again and my buddy calls over again "come on lets see what you got" it must have pissed him off cause he followed me around for a bit then decided to turn off, i went back to the rest of the group and we never saw the focus again for the rest of the night, he must have went home to lick his wounds buwahaha

            Chris, racing on public roads is dangerous and my friend had a friend that died and this is disgraceful to all of us and whine whine whine!

            Somebody had to start in with it. Lol
            Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege. Driving is my passion, as it was for the people who invented the automobile, the people who paved the first roads and the people who continue to improve the automobile. Please respect this passion.

                        I got three tickets at the same time.
                        One for speeding in a school zone.
                        One for no driver's license.
                        and one for no insurance.

                        I'm glad I only got ticketed once for driving the wrong way down a one way street and doing a U-turn in a no U-turn zone.

                        Stop teasing us with school zone speeding. That's why I clicked on this link in the first place.
