A few new kills
Went out to the races on the Berlin Turnpike in CT last night, got a few decent kills.
I normally don't race out there since it is known as race central here in CT and the cops are out in full force, but I really could not help myself...
Some 16 year old kid in a slightly modded WRX wanted to run. He had NOS stickers everywhere, but all he actually had done was downpipe and exhaust. We ran from a 20 roll and by 3rd gear I had about 1 1/2 cars. By the end of 4th I was almost at 3 so I shut it down. The kid was cool about it and said that he wanted to get rid of the WRX and get an S now, lol.
After that some guy with a black Cobalt SS was talking trash about imports and their drivers, so I decided to run him too. Another 20 roll, we were even through the end of 2nd but once I hit 3rd I pulled suprisingly hard and by 5th I had at least 3 cars. As I'm slowing the guy does a rcer flyby. He the tries to race my friends modded Evo (that is pushng about 430AWHP) and get beat by about 8 lengths. Needless to say the guy was pretty pissed and didn't even come back to the parking lot where we all were originally. He just stopped in front peeled out and left.
My car is stripped right now so my only mods were a Comptech intake and Invidia Test Pipe. The top was also down and I had a passenger. I'm pretty shocked that I fared that well to be honest.

HAHA Good story. I was actually wondering about the Cobalt SS. There is this high school looking kid around me that drives one with some stupid vanity plate about his car. So annoying. Anyways Im happy you showed the dipwad up.

Ya, I've raced quite a few and the S2000 takes them easily. What you really need to worry about is when they upgrade the pulleys and other items. It's hard to tell from a stock version so hey make a good sleeper. I was more worried about the WRX, since I have had a few newer versions with mods roll over me before.
