Hey everyone.. thought i'd post about my "kill" today..
Anyways, I was messin around on this dirt road thats wayy out in hick country, that goes along this railroad track.. an this guy on an ATV comes haulin ass out of the woods, we messed around for a while in this field doin donuts an what not, an we stopped an talked.. he asked if my car was fast and i said "no not really" an he said, "Well lets race." now normally I wouldnt race on dirt, or the street, but i figured since its way out in the middle of no where an the road is huge i'd take him.

So we both get goin next to eachother pretty slow an he gets on it, i floored it in first an slowely built boost, (mad exhaust leaks) an hit second quickly, the whole time he was right next to me, shiftin about 4 times by the time i hit third. We took it up to about 65 an i cut off, so did he.. I dont think he coulda gone much faster. I guess it wasnt really a kill, but it was a fun race.. The thing sounded mean, with no muffler and he was spinnin the back tires like crazy.

My car is a 90 TSi AWD with a 2100lb clutch, 16g (stock boost) and just about to turn over 200k

Was it a 2 stroke? Guy down the road from me had a Honda 250R that he ran flat track with. It had a highly modded engine from Duncan Racing and many other mods. Anyways the thing outrun 2 600 CBRs pretty easily up to near 100 on the highway. It was a beast!

yea crotch rockets have nothing on 2-strokes :D my dad has a 1100cc Arctic Cat Thundercat (heavily modded) he got a road setup for it, hoping for mid 9's @ 130mph

My stock 2004 R-1 ran a 10.4 @ 141 mph my first time racing it. I don't really think you can say crotch rockets have nothing on 2 strokes. (Like always I have video)
