wierdest races
so today i was drivin home after goin out with this one girl...i dropped her off, cought some food with some friends, then proceeded to drive home. as im driving i see an explorer drive up and flash his highbeams at me, and im thinkin "holy sh!t, is he serious" so i happen to catch him at the next signal and i look over at him with a "you cant be serious" kinda look. the light turns green, he takes off...i laugh..then go for it and totally own the explorer. i slow down, do the ricer hazard thing...and then he comes right up on my a$s, and wants MORE...we go from at about a 40 mph roll and once again, i hit the hazards. i let him pass with my hazards still on and just looked down when he passed me. i was amazed that he actually wanted to race...
i KNOW their are more wierd race stories out their...

92 3.1 Camaro VS a 92-95 ??? Saturn SL2 ( Is that the 4 door model ? ) At anyrate, these kids im friends with decided to race and suprisingly the Saturn beat the Camaro, however i dont know how many ppl were in the cars at the time or anything like that i wasnt there, i jsut heard that the kid got OWNED ... lol
Then the Camaro raced a 93 or 94 Cutless Supreme with the 3.4 DOHC , like 210 hp i think ? And he totally got toasted ... By 65 he had at least 4 car lengths on the camaro if not more ...
Cutlass Supreme VS. 2K2 LS1 Ram Air Trans Am ... Cutlass rolls up next to trans am ( A guy he works with, actually his manager at McDonalds lol ) throws him a few revs ( Only to 3000 cause in nuetral it has a 300 Rev Limiter ) the Trans Am guy looks over and luaghs , doesnt take him serious at all , Light turns green and the Cutlass floors it, the Trans Am guy is like WTF i guess lol , so he nails it and TOTALLY DECIMATES us in the Cutlass, it was fun though...
O and I raced the Cutlass Supreme kid, he was driving his moms Cutlass Sierra ( Cause his was in the shop, timing belt took a ****, so they burned him like clsoe to 1000$ to fix it ) and i was in my moms Shadow cause my Camaro STILL isnt done lol ... But thats just cause i had a major eye injury (Lacrosse ball launched from a Lax Team kid at full blast from like 5 feet away ... Lucky to still have that eye actually ) and couldnt work on it for like a month and a half ... So at anyrate, in a straight line he destroyed me haha , but then he came around a bend jsut about lsot it and i passed him and he couldnt take the turns as fas

I've raced ford broncos and HUGE lifted chevys. I don't know why they even try. We both have 350s... my car weighs 3400 pounds. your truck weighs 6000. Doesn't take a genius to figure out the outcome. Some guy in a big dodge 4x4 was revving. I wasn't gonna think anything of it, but when the light turned green he lit up the tires and took off. I take off normally like... okay.... so we get to the next light, and I see he's got his girl in the truck (automatically have to race at this point).So he yells out "lets see what that little Z28 can do" kinda laughin.. so I say i'll race you to 60 but I don't want to get a ticket. I stall up to the best of my abilities, and take off. Perfect traction. I've never launched that hard in my life. When I hit 60 i'm a good 10 cars ahead. I slow back down and the guy drives by w/ this stupid look on his face

the 3.4 in a Cutlass is a DOHC or TDC 3.4 and they can be really fast. Your Camaro 3.4 is the pushrod version.

Yeah, I don't know what it is with these morons, especially with the huge lifed Chevys. They think they are so fast and bada**! I used to beat most of them in my '90 Toyota 4x4, extracab, V6 5-speed! That supid Toyota was slow as ba**s.

Cutlass Sumpremes with the 3.4 are like 200 or 215 HP and weigh about the same, theyre like a low 16 sec car ...
