Got me an STi tonight!

I was driving home from work tonight and Im at a light with no other cars around. Then I see some HID
light coming at me. Then when he gets upnext to me I see the monseter hood scope, and the gold
brembos. Then he looks over at me and gives me the cool guy head nod , you know the one where
they kinda flick their head back and let it come back down slowly. Any way I smile and throw him a rev.
Just after that the cross trafic light turns yellow and he satrts reving up for his AWD launch. The only
thing I was thinking when he did that was that if I spin off the line I may not catch him. When the
light turned green I launched like I have never launched befor, realy I think it was my best one EVER.
But he still got about 3/4 of a car on me off the line. Then I hit second and got about even with him
and I was pullin hard. By the end of second I had a nose on him, but third... omg that car has a real top
end problem... by the end of third I had about 3 cars on him, after that there was no pint in going to
4th, so I hit the breaks. then he did it... the fly by.
at the next light I trned left and he turned right, but he did give me a wave befor he turned, I think
he lost his cool guy nod when he lost the race, o ya and it looked like he had his girl friend in the car to.

show no mercy, even if he does have his girl in the car. i think its more fun when its a guy and his girl vs. a guy and his girl. my girlfriend has as much fun as i do when we dust people but is as pissed off as i am when i lose to people

They are killers out of the hole but loose their pull up top.
The ones that have mods seem to do a bit better.

nice kill. STi's are nice and quick too. my buddy ran a 8.2 in the 1/8th in his the other night..................

but doesn't sound like much of a "ricer flyby" to me. from what i understand, he went past you while on his brakes? if you lose a street race to someone, do you relinquish all rights to go past them in the future?
