Lets see... kills, kills. hmmmm
To tell you the truth i don't have many incredibly exciting races to talk about (i have the motego blue/green 94 RX-7). Either i don't know how to find them, or people are too afraid to race me <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>
I believe EVERYONE knows about the Miata race <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>. There must have been 100+ people watching that nite. Nobody wanted to race me, and i wanted to show the crowd what my car could do (ahem, shoot flames <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>). SO me and a friend in his stock miata pulled up to the line, pushing all the bodies out of the way. Everything from weird/odd looks to bursts of laughter come about on our way up to the line. Bryan Terry was the flagman, and he told me to give him a head start.. hmmmm <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
3.....2.....1!!, the Miata is off!!... what? Clint's still at the line singing Simon & Garfunkel? (heh, ok maybe not but i thought that was funny). I wait approx. 3 seconds then let her rip. Keep in mind i was just showing off, not racing for best time. I get sideways while redlining 1st gear, then throw it into second producing a 3-4' flame out of the back.. in return getting a little squirrely again, then finally getting some decent traction. By the top of 2nd gear i catch up to the miata and ram it into 3rd, throwing yet another bigass flame (this one being blue, hehe) right beside the poor fellow. I continue to pull HAAAAAAAARD (lol, understatment), and i end up about 3-4 car lengths in front of him by the stopping point.
The Miata guy was estatic, and enjoyed it just as well. Shortly after the lone cop came by (first time ever in that place), and since then the crowd has been relatively dead. I went to bed with a smile on my face that nite <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
Other kills:
modded '00 Camaro SS
Jonathan's Turbo Integra (however he beat me just as much, but that was before i knew how to launch well.. bogged everytime)
99? Pontiac Trans Am
too many mustangs to count
old body Z28 w/ slicks
barely pulled on a Viper, hehe, he turned off the hwy as soon as possible
Basically i've beaten anything that doesn't have slicks on it, the Z28 race was a rolling start. I don't see any future races with me in the drivers seat since i'm selling it <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('> First $17,500 gets her
