So after I took my brother to pick up his car from the shop... we started heading home and this Accord slowed down next to me (he was in the carpool lane). My brother was following me home the whole way home... and then he sped up. I thought nothing of it... Then he got stuck behind a truck... and we continued cruisin down the freeway at 70 MPH.
About 3 minutes later... when there was an opening to exit the car pool lane... he sped up and pulled up next to my brother... slowed down ... then sped up to race... I saw my brother starting to take off and I had to think for a second if I should join in on the fun. So I decided 5 seconds later... fuggit... why not... it's been a while and it would be fun to surprise the Accord owner with my supposedly-slow ST. So by this time... he was 4 cars lengths ahead... and my brother was 1 ahead of him... I downshifted... and passed him up easily... I could just see him in my rear-view mirrors STRUGGLIN to catch up... BUT he couldn't... So my brother and I slowed down and just let him pass us... cuz getting a ticket isn't worth it... Anyway... that's my story for the day... and my roommate and I were crackin up the whole time home. DAMN BOOST IS TOOOOOO ADDICTING. |

Yup! I can't wait for my brother to get his new clutch... and for me to get my EBC back and new wheels (I have no tread right now). I wanna see where my car stacks up against my brother's car. Regardless of me being lighter and having slightly more HP... He's RWD will out-torque me. That night, when we were pulling into the freeway... I floored it on the ramp... and my brother was still able to keep up with me with his slippin clutch. Mind you I have no tread on my tires and still running stock boost. Anyway... I'll report back later on this when my brother and I are ready to run... |
