it was on an open freeway, he initiated the race, so i said why the hell not...

he honked 3 times and we both got a pretty much even start, we were neck and neck all the way to 140, and then he slowly walked away, once he started to walk away i got off it at around 145 once i knew i wasnt gonna catch him.... we pulled into a gas station and talked for a few mins, he wanted to see under my hood lol.... couldnt believe an accord hung with him.... i couldnt believe my accord hung with him....


before everyone calls BS, it's not your everyday accord coupe, it's got the red top H22A swap (Euro Prelude moter, 220hp stock) and i have a straight through exhaust, no cats, no mufflers, dumped behind the rear axle, and a custum ram air intake i made myself....


Bumping thread after 3 months of inactivity just to continue an argument is trolling.

If you were street racing, you are an idiot, regardless of the outcome.


Also, Bullshit.

Hope you completed the transaction before you raced, else he might have been pissed and raised the price.

You seem to be pretty consistent. You're accurately able to determine the right thing and the wrong thing to do in any situation in life. Strangely, you seem to always choose to do the wrong thing.

But I guess it's not as bad as it sounds, your alertness was probably enhanced by the illicit drugs in your system.

Dude, there is no way that does fine as a filter. You are letting large particles of dirt into your engine.

Get back to us when you spin a main bearing.

it works fine as a filter. it's fine enough to not let big particles in, and besides its way up in the tube, i doubt any particles even make it to the filter much less through the filter.
