Default Less HP, Half the price, and Faster

Now i dont do this all the time, but this guy in a 03-06 G35 auto coupe was staring at me while we were stopped at alight last night. So i kinda knew what was about to happen...GREEN, he took of a little quicker, but i caught up and passed through second and into third, 'bout 80 i let go and he passed and ran a yellow....Anyway it feels good to put it to the guy who thinks more money equals a better car....I LOVE MY ACCORD!!!

talk amongst yourselves, im a little vaklemp

yea, street racing isnt safe unless...
you got some:
-crossed drilled rotors for extreme braking
-racing seats for personal safety
-nice suspension set up so your car wont flip
-your car is stick so you can downshift
-and some good downforce to keep your car pinned to the ground

It's always nice, once in a while, to show the Accord is one of the best bang for the buck.

that's great. you do realize you are making decision for others on the road too, right? cause most people arent expecting a vehicle to be travelling at double or triple the speed limit? ever been passed by someone going 50mph or more than you? ever think about what had happened had you hedged over into that, cause christ, you wouldnt have seen them coming at that speed. it doesnt sount like it.

grow up. take it to the track. street racing threads should be banned. end of story.
