luckybmw · #1 (**permalink**) 03-10-2002, 10:08 AM

brad and i decided to pay a little visit to some of the s.d. ricers at the streetraces. i have some sik ass video that i will try to get up soon. can you say 4 wide of all saturns....

i had so many runs i forgot who i raced. the best part of the night for me was losing by half a car length to a cobra.it wasn't the brand new ones, but the ones before. nice car. brad had a nice ass run in where he decided to save gas and break off two people at once, may i add handed them both their asses at that. i'll try to get the vid up soon. thanks to shane and marcus for helping out with the nitrous install and the new clutch. shane you da man. the car pulls like a somofabitch now

watch out, my 318is is coming to a stoplight near you

i'm gonna try to get them on brad's computer today if i can. wait til you see where we mounted my purge at. very sik. i think i scared the shit out of some poor taxi driver when he wouldn't move so i purged on his car. i was getting sideways in second, i have to work on my launches real bad. saeed is right, i want to just hook that sh*t into my veins

you should have seen the look on the guy with the cobra's face

"what the hell do you have in that thing?" i think i made him nervous when he could see my hood the whole run through his passeger window, he didn't seem like he was used to having people keep up with him.

Were these typical ricers with only exhaust, spring, foglight and spoilers, or did they have anything decent under the hood?

alot of the cars that came out with us were performance modded. there was an eclipse gst running 20lbs of boost, cobra, gt 5.0, rsx-s, vr6 corrado, maxima running a 70 shot of nitrous, and a few others that were quite fast. none of us were in the single digits, but we had alot of good runs. there were also alot of the all show ricers... huge exhasut, airplane wing, etc. the funniest part of the video is when two eclipses line up, both with indiglo guages, and brad starts talking about how it is the "indiglo guage wars" right beside their cars

Can you refresh my memory on what you have under your hood. Your car seems pretty quick for a 318. Thanks.

So changing your differential and putting it that zex kit kept up with a cobra? damn, thats impressive.

He may have gained some power with ditching the muffler right?

I sense some form of maybe a little bit of hate here.

If you read his post he has a 325 with a 318 badge, gears, nitrous, and for god's sake I recorded the whole run on video. It was awesome.

Ditching the muffler doesn't give you power, its the cats that are the limiting factor, and they won't give you any power whatsoever unless you have a highly modified car, or a force induction car.
