Last night I was out cruising with a couple friends. One of my buddies was driving and there was around 500 lbs of people in my car. We saw a LOUD integra pass by us going the other direction. Naturally we whipped around and followed him to see if he wanted to race. When we caught up to him, he gunned it a couple times. That sucker was pretty fast! He was game for racing, so we went out to the nearby highway.
We agreed to go from around 45 mph. On three honks we went. We got the initial jump (around 1/2 a car) in second gear, but by around 55mph he was slowly gaining. He barely nosed in front of us through 3rd gear and we thought it was definitely game over. Surprisingly, we started coming back by the top of 3rd gear and by the time we hit the speed limiter at 115mph, he was more than a car behind us.
I think this was the funniest race I've ever been in. During the whole time we were yelling and laughing. I recall yelling at the other passenger to "Think fast thoughts!!", lol.
After the race, we talked a bit. At first he insisted that his car was "stock" but there was no way. After a bit more prodding, he told us he had a VTEC engine swap with no muffler and a gutted interior. Stock my a$$, lol. When my friend told him my car was a V6 he gave us the most surprised look you have ever seen. :D
So much fun!
Edit: Oh yeah, forgot that we don't have sigs anymore. Here's my humble mod list:
Flowmaster exhaust, Pacesetter headers, 3" cat, 3" S-pipe, whisper lid, ram air, Spec Stage 1 clutch, Poly Trans mount, Walbro 255LPH.
