Civic SI

Well i was driving around trying to find a race here in Selinsgrove PA and to my surprize tonight is halloween dress up at the bar night.. I was cruising around and let me tell you... there were a group of girls that must have been dressed up as sexy lingre models!! I got sidetracked(imagine that) and about ran into a New civic SI..He got pissed and brake checked was acting stupid so we go through town and the last light before a single lane there was a wrx in front of me and the SI beside me,the light turns and the wrx goes through so its me and my "buddy" beside each other, I ask himto roll down his window and proceeded to tell him im going to whoop his ***(no i actually asked him if he wanted to race)Anyway he asked me if i really believed it was going to be close, i said no..... it prob wont,but ill tryI start building boost in 4whi and he revs, light turns green and by 60 i was a bus or so length ahead with a big black cloud behind me! To my amazement no ricer fly by but a big grin and 2 thumbs up...Ive never had that happen with a honda!They must be catching on!

Subaru guys are a differnt breed, more into auto-x and 1/4 mile. They dont rice there cars as much as I see all the japanese makes. I dont want to ruin a good kill, but if it wasnt an STI a chiped diesel would walk all over it.

No, the diesel powered WRX is going to be sweet! 2.0L Boxer! Those crazy Asians!

Oh, and yes! It's fun to beat little rice racers. I do it all the time in the morning trying to get onto the freeway at 4:45 in the morning. There's a little Dodge Neon (turbo one) that always whoops my tail though. He mean mugs me instead up thumbs up.

I mean the Hondas and all the other weak intro cars these kids rice out are a joke. On the other hand the Dodge Neon SRT or whatever, the WRX and STI can be pretty mean.

Oh geez! How freakin funny! The primed body kit!!! I think it's every suburban city in America. The whole county I live in is loaded with em. Luckily big ol' diesels and FULL sized trucks are catching up. LOTS of Cummins and Powerstrokes up here. I'd rather see a tricked out Cummins over a stupid Honda. On the other hand, since Subaru was the first car I owned I have a soft spot for those STIs.

the subaru driver has already realized that his engine WILL blow at any point so he doesn't want to chance it by racing.. He is only prolonging the inevitable
