First won RACE!!

So im driving home today and some kid in a Acura RSX typeS flies past me so i quickly catch up to him and we get stuck on a red light. So i put my launch control on and we go..... needless to say i took him by at least 2 car lenghts. At the next lights he gave me props. I Love this car...

Cool ! This Past Tueday, My & Wife & I Finaly Took The Hhr Ss Down To The Track To See What It Would Run ( Its An Auto) & She Got 15.3 & She Beat A Dodge Ram W/ A Hemi & Then She Had Her Best Time 15.2 But She Got Spanked By A "03-04 Cobra. & Then I Made One Run In It & I Was Lined Up Along A Turbo Saab. I Only Beat Him By A Tenth !!! 15.3to 15.4 !!

did you brake boost it at the line??? that's the one advantage of having an automatic turbo car.

Because he can't see the error of his ways. 6 points will fix that.. Have fun but be safe out there people, keep it on roads where YOU will be the only casualty.

<Rant ON> Hopefully you are the only one that will get hurt when something goes wrong. The street is not a place for this type of activity. Find a local drag strip or HPDE organization and do it safely. It's much more fun. <Rant OFF>
