Coming home tonight.. and i passed this celica new, with the performance, aero package with a bunch of guys in it. So I decided to dog it and see if they would play.

I passed them slowly and looked over.. then just hung there... at the next light they have a clear lane and I didn't. So I moved in behind them and went at it from 1 and a half car lenghts behind. I passed them pretty damn fast...

at the next light they ask me what I had done and one guy said he knew it had to be fully built... they were pretty kewl guys.. and then they asked if I wanted to go from a stop dead next to each other.. I said sure...

We didnt get the chance at another light.. but I did give them the start from a 20 roll.. and they got about 1 lenght in front and I passed them while spinning through second... ran out most of third with enough distance you could drive a semi between us...

Not that glorious, but I think both parties had fun on this wonderful xmas!

If you race, just be safe is all we ask.....

happy new year...

if i'm not mistaken, your car runs more than 21lbs of boost?(1.5bar=appr. 21psi).....that's a lotta boost....what's your 1/4 e.t.?.......anyway's, good kill, is there thread i could see your car?......

well it could take alot, but for now i'm trying to stay below 1bar (14-15lbs)... ;)

My car pretty much looks just like any other integra w/ clear corners, lowered w/ tires and Greddy EVO.. inside there's alot more...

why did you change your sig.? from drag gen III @1.5 bar of boost to 1.0 bar?

Why did I change it? Well I figured it would be more appropriate to change it to a more realistic number. I could run it 1.5bar but honestly why advertise it if i don't run it.

It was very expensive to build the block, it would be a shame for the head to take a shit or something else running the extra .5 bar.. call me paranoid I guess. I almost put 3bar LMAO
