Ok, so i was coming home from school when i see a 5th gen lude in my mirror, it looked great so i was slowin down to check it out... it pulls up and (luckily) a light up above turns red, so we stop and im just STARING in awe of this kids (he goes to my school too) lude... some of the nicest rims i had seen in a while too... then i see that my lights about to turn so i give it a lil to bring the idle up to about 2.5k
so it turns green and i figure beutiful 5th gen vs project barely modded 3rd? i have no chance so i was gonna try to catch him off guard... but he obviusly had the same idea cuz as we both start pullin away i accidentally let out the clutch a bit fast chirp the tires and were both off.
i have maybe a two foot jump on him from the reaction at the light (or it was automatic... im not sure which) then i shift into second and he gains about two feet, then i see his car drop back half a carlength from him shifting (either a bad shift from inexpirience or it in fact was Automatic) and then i go into third and hes slowly slowly creepin then he shifts and goes right back to half a car back.
at this point we catch up to some other traffic so we back off cuz were not suicidal. i think an 'official' account of this race would be::
1. I cought him a lil off gaurd but i also had extra weight via passenger whereas he did not have any one with him
2. My nose was maybe five feet ahead when we called it off but he WAS gaining
so i oficially call this a tie... but an impressive showing from my beloved
