Another Silver WRX...

HamFist · 08-04-2001, 03:15 AM

This guy actually beat me! I wondered why I didn't lose the first time a few weeks ago. I honestly expected to get beat. This was up I 25 and US 36. I figured he was in third when he left at 50. I gave up after 70...the turbo won it for him

. What's a good kill story without a "got killed" antithesis? There was just no contest. His turbo spooled up and he walked away. He didn't leave too fast, I could still see him

. mmmmmmm....boost....

That quite possibly could have been me. Were there more people in the car? Did it have a BPM exhaust? Windows tinted, roof rack? If so it was me. I was driving my girlfriend and her dad back from the airport. I wasn't supposed to be driving fast

. Coulda been me.

Nope. There was one guy in the car. Have you raced a blue 2 door on 287 shortly after you go the car? I remember the guy looked like he was in his 20's and had a chick with shoulder length hair in the passenger seat. It was at night. The guy turned off at Kipling. G

Before I delivered my 2.5RS to its new owner, I raced a silver WRX sedan up Golden Gate Canyon. I could tell he was trying because he lit up the tires into the turn onto the canyon.

He obviously had no idea how to drive the car, or he was going easy on it for the break-in period because I would be on his ass through the turns, but he would blow me away on the straightaways. I could've beaten him if I was a little more aggressive. I was pretty aggressive as it was, but I could've pushed it a lil more.

Anyways, I was on bald stock RE92's with stock susp. and he was on new stock RE92's with stock susp. His car could easily of out-handled mine. But, he just wasn't up to par on his driving skills.

If you think this was you, try to think of a silver 2.5RS Coupe with big wing and a few stickers on it. I passed you once we got most of the way up the canyon and into traffic.

Later,
Tom

I don't think it was me up golden gate canyon. I would have remembered that. The only time I have to drive nice is when my girlfriend is in the car

. That probably wasn't me on 287 either. It's possible it could have been me. I've had the car for a few months now though.
