Watching TV may be hazardous to your vehicles healthCassiesMan 04-09-2006, 04:59 PM So I haven't really gotten a ton of races recently. I just can't get people to race. Like last night, I paced a riced to all hell Honda Civic for a good two or three miles, but couldn't get him to go...and then he saw a riced out Eclipse and jumped all the fuck over it. I think I'm just ognna get some neons and huge wing and Wal Mart spinners. Anyways, I digress. I finally was able to find a race last night. Mazda RX-8. I really didn't wanna waste the gas considering I knew I would beat it, but he was willing to put down $50 on it, and I was like...I just cant pass that up. Thats perfectly good drinking money. Anyways, we agree to go from a dig and we would meet up at around 11:30-midnightish to go. I go out to the spot and wait a bit for him to show up, and he finally does. He brought along a buddy to flag us, and to hold the cash. I'm normally pretty wery about such situations, but this time I was up for it. So we mark off a start line, and I pull up to it, only to watch him in my rearview mirror rev the shit out of his car, and nuetral drop it. His car makes a horrible grinding noise, lurches forward with a light chirp of the tires, and he pulls up next to me. I had my window down, and look over with a what the hell just happened look, and he was like...dude, you should do that, warms up your tires and gives you better traction, saw it on TV. Oh god no. Now, as stated above, I knew I was gonna win this race. Why? Well, for one it was an auto, and two, earlier the guy had said, and I quote him on this one directly "I dunno if I should run it, I don't think I can handle the power." After that though, I knew I was gonna smoke him. So he lines up after some rev show or something, and starts reving the shit outa his car, and I'm just power braking to about two grand, nothing that big. His buddy points and starts doing this spool it up motion with his hands, and I'm just like...wha'? Anyways, flagger finally drops his arms, and home boy in the RX-8 does it again, nuetral dropping from some high ass rev. I get a decent launch while he just kinda sputters forward for a second while his tranny asks God what it did to deserve this, and I fly off, putting a good three or four lengths on him by the time I hit 90. Take it up to 110, and let off, turn around and head back. He sees me turning around, so in defeat, he does the same. I collect the cash, and I really think he just broke something. It smelled horrible, like someone had died, come back from the dead to go roll in elephant feces, then died again, and was making a sound even a rotary shouldn't make (To paraphrase Red...you mean it was running?) He comes up with some rice excuse of how he lost, and I just ignore him, collect my cash, and leave him there trying to figure out what the hell was wrong with his car. Decent night even if I only got one race and had to drive like, thirty miles to get it, cuz I got fifty bucks to drink with. -The Stig- 04-09-2006, 05:03 PM man... N bombs with an auto. I thought nobody did that anymore... crazy. VR43000GT 04-09-2006, 05:12 PM Mabye I missed something. Does this guy have a button that he can hit to make it go from an RX-8 to an RX-7???? Nice kill though. -The Stig- 04-09-2006, 05:19 PM No, but he wishes he had an Rx7... Cassie just gave him an upgrade in mid race, still didn't help. :lol: VR43000GT 04-09-2006, 05:20 PM lol CassiesMan 04-09-2006, 06:29 PM I have no idea what you are talking about... VR43000GT 04-09-2006, 06:36 PM For those of you entering this thread for the first time this is what Cassie said in his post before he edited it (notice it says edited @...). In the beggining it was an RX-8 and then an RX-7. How did he do it. :eek: Anyways, flagger finally drops his arms, and home boy in the RX-7 does it again, nuetral dropping from some high ass rev. Mad_Maxima 04-09-2006, 06:43 PM :lol: Cassie got caught. TatII 04-09-2006, 08:06 PM wow, i would've taught the guy how to properly launch it. i mean you took his money, atleast give him a hint. 2000LS1Z28 04-09-2006, 09:13 PM Sounds like you raced an idiot. I remember doing neutral drops in a Corolla. Back then I was 16. Pretty foolish I know. If that guy honestly told you that he didn't think he could handle the power he must've stepped up from a Yugo to the RX8, cause those cars really aren't fast IMHO. Now the RX7's were a totally different breed though. What happened to selling this car? CassiesMan 04-09-2006, 09:27 PM What happened to selling this car? Long, complicated story (actually its not long or complicated at all, lol). Yeah, I messed up, lol. I was hoping it wouldnt say I edited it. GForce957 04-09-2006, 10:33 PM I like how u paced the civic for a few miles, but debated wasting gas for an rx-8 and 50 bucks haha CassiesMan 04-09-2006, 11:32 PM I like how u paced the civic for a few miles, but debated wasting gas for an rx-8 and 50 bucks haha That was on the way home from Como, the RX-8 was out here local. Sleepr awd 04-10-2006, 01:09 PM and you didn't call me!? man i'm on my last quarter tank w/ 5$ in my checking account, i def. coulda used an easy 50$ or hell even 100$ tell him some slow ass eclipse wants to race, i'll even fake having engine trouble or something. I'll even drive all the way out to where you are to show this guy a thing or two :rofl: oh and the cops said that one spot we always go to in como is done, we've got some new spots i'll clue you in on if i ever go out carrrnuttt 04-10-2006, 01:19 PM Cassie, you still drive the 325 right?

That poor car, if he keeps that up, his tranny will probably commit suicide. That horrible smell was probably burnt tranny fluid...that stuff stinks Musashi3000GT 04-10-2006, 02:53 PM Wow, auto vs. auto...what can I say.....YAAAAWWWWWWWNNNNNNNN! :sleep: Mad_Maxima 04-10-2006, 03:21 PM Musashi, you forgot the GTO! Kinda off-topic, but i was just wondering if AF had a thread that had all the smilies that this forum uses. 79Bandit 04-10-2006, 04:26 PM Musashi, you forgot the GTO! Kinda off-topic, but i was just wondering if AF had a thread that had all the smilies that this forum uses. ...see where the smilies are if you go to post something? then where it says more.welp click it... tada Musashi3000GT 04-10-2006, 04:40 PM ^ ROFL, I should hire you as my manager mad_max! GTO! CassiesMan 04-10-2006, 04:56 PM Carrrnuttt, what about it? I see you doing some bench racing, but thats about it. Not really sure what the point about putting up that link was, but meh? Mush, whatever. At least I don't bullshit stories about racing in a slow ass 3KGT and get my "wingmen" on line ot back me up. Elchico-I'm out all the fucking time on the weekends and I cant find shit up in Como anymore? Thought last Saturday everyone was supposed to be up at the IC, I hit it up, and it was bone ass empty, and was there (cruising up/down AC) for a good twenty minutes, didn't see shit. I woulda called you, but I thought you were...indisposed. Your girlfriend sounds kinda cute on the phone, same one I met last year? Mad_Maxima 04-10-2006, 05:10 PM ...see where the smilies are if you go to post something? then where it says more.welp click it... tada I still don't see where it says more :(, I suck at stuff like intructions over the internet, I still haven't figured out how to use MIRC eventhough my friends have explained it to me like 10 times. I guess I'm the same as that USC cheerleder rooting for Texas. Mad_Maxima 04-10-2006, 05:28 PM ^ ROFL, I should hire you as my manager mad_max! GTO! No prob, for a small fee I can even make you half of the price of the GTO so you'd only have to pay the other half, but you'd have to be willing participate in some specialty videos. Oh and you might wanna hide them your wife and friends, they might not like em :rofl: carrrnuttt 04-10-2006, 05:35 PM Carrrnuttt, what about it? I see you doing some bench racing, but thats about it. Not really sure what the point about putting up that link was, but meh? I understand where the other guy in your story seems to be a total incompetent when it comes to cars. Just don't act like your automatic E46 325 is that much faster than an automatic RX-8. As a matter of fact, quit acting like your car is fast at all. :screwy: Musashi3000GT 04-10-2006, 05:53 PM Mush, whatever. At least I don't bullshit stories about racing in a slow ass 3KGT and get my "wingmen" on line ot back me up. Awwh! Im hurt :bricks1: You thought I was BSing my stories? I thought we where best friends...:frown: dont hate playa, soon enough I'll have the Goat broken in and then I can start a whole new chapter of BSing and have my Wingmen back me up k? :smooch: GTO. CassiesMan 04-10-2006, 06:15 PM As a matter of fact, quit acting like your car is fast at all. :screwy: I don't act like my car is fast. I'll be the first to admit my car is slow. Its one of the slower cars on here. But then, thats not saying much seeing how many slow cars are on here. Sleepr awd 04-10-2006, 06:23 PM sorry man, the cpd is cracking down on ricers, so the street racers get hit too. Partly my fault, i havent' been anywhere around the racing scene for 3 months. anyways if you check the csr in the events, we've got a big meet coming up for everyone to come and BS yup same gf as last time... unless it was a dif. girl that answered... in which case shhhhhhhhhhhhh. either one would have been cute ;) anymore all i seem to do is work out, play halo on my friend's 360, and be "indisposed" CassiesMan 04-10-2006, 06:30 PM Well, that sounds like my freshman year, LOL. I saw the next meet, I'll see if I can make it. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
