I was sitting at a dual turn lane waiting for the light to turn green to get on the freeway. Sitting next to me was a new Passat VR6 (280hp). Light turns green and he was been slow poking it for the last 5 miles so I decided I was going to get ahead of him. Well as soon as the light turns he punches it and squeals the tires. I had a semi hard take off since I was planning and getting in front of him. Well he didn't like that and was trying to show off his new ride to his girl and friend in the back. Let's just say I got on the freeway first :) First respectable kill.

I saw one of those today. They look really really nice. He didn't bite. Good kill!

Oh yeah, they look nice, and are nice, but there's no way I'm paying upper $30k for one. I don't think I would have beat him if he was alone in the car. I have some weight advantage, and possibly acceleration advantage on him.

was the passat auto or manual??? nice win

From best I could tell it was an auto.

Ok, I am not getting this, please explain. Is the SS a race car, I keep seeing all these posts about racing other cars, I thought street racing was illegal, and not to mention.. stupid and dangerous, I love the HHR, but, it is a mini-station wagon, even if you put a turbo on it. Just want to say that some guys on the site never reply to anything other than racing their car...let's try and support the whole site, get together and make this thing huge!! Todd (Uma)

As I stated, I was getting on the freeway. It's not like I was weaving through a school zone at 100 mph. I simply got up to freeway speed faster then the other guy. I never went above 3rd gear.

First of all, I am not a lawman, but street racing is a big problem out here in Socal. I love the SS..the ground effects, the rear spoiler, etc. I just love it!, and black is my color. I have an "06", You put my 20" rims on your car, lower it, put my sounds, exhaust, grille, taillights, and make that paint shine like mine..then I may be a "Hater" Until then, I will be satisfied with my lowly little "06" 2lt.

I have to agree now, the SS is a race car. I tried launch control tonight. Holy cow, it's awesome! Torque steer is pretty much gone. Very pleased with how it performed!

Just messing with you uma:D , street racing has been around since kids started driving cars and will never stop, when I was young we use to race in industrial areas at night when all the businesses were closed and there would even be cops around but, because we stayed off the streets they would let it slide, there were occasinal accidents but at least it wasen`t innocent people, we were all there by choice, if they would let them still do that, they would know where they are and it would happen alot less on the public streets:thumb: trying to stop them just makes them want to do it more:steering: sometimes when your at a stoplight, and a punk in rice rocket pulls up beside you and thinks he`s all that, you have to put him in his place:thumb: right or wrong you can`t help but smile:D

Most of us racecar guys don't have any intention of making our cars slower (increased rolling mass), making them handle worse (increased unsprung weight, and making the ride rougher (shorter sidewall). Just saying.

That is very true, I do concede, for you it is a rice rocket, for me it is kid thinking he has some serious sounds...blasting distorted crap. I turn it up, and they turn theirs down, so I guess I understand your point...as long as it is safe, LOL, Todd (Uma)

We all have our vices! :D

The one thing we can all agree on though is keep it safe!
