I originally posted this on zilvia.net.... couple of people were really coming down on my post saying that street racing is so dangerous this and that... and i should keep it at the track or else i would kill myself and or someone else in the process... I didnt over exagerize anything... so i dunno y some of them were freaked out that i went on a windy road at night.... =/ I rememberd that 240sxforums had a section just for kills so hopfully here i wont get people lecturing me about always keeping it at the track etc etc... cus hey.. im not a crazy driver who street races all the time... its just sometimes i just want to have a lil fun... dont we all???
Keep in mind this road i was on, i go up and down it around 3-4 times a day for the past 3 years so i know it very well. Im sure everyone in my town knows the road well because its one of the main roads to get the the freeway... Its not even that tough of a road, when i first started driving, before my 240, i drove my moms maxima and i could make it down and up going 50mph the whole way easy...
Well heres my story =D
So tonight i was coming home from my night class at the CC i go to. I get off Central Lafayette and i head on my way to the small town i live in, Moraga to be exact. Theres a stop light where i have to turn left to go to the curvy roads that which leads you to Moraga. I went in the inside lane and there was this black z28 camero, very nice looking and clean with flows etc etc u guys probably know what im talking about. Light turns green and i turn left, and accelerate how i normally do. Next thing i know the z28 speeds up and starts pacing right next to me and accelerating fast then slowing down to wait for me... im deciding on if i should run or not... i speed up cus the 2 lane road merges, and i merge and we hit a Red light at the stop light right before the curvy roads, im in front of the z28. Finally turns green and i do a lil turtle start, then i gun it. The road is pretty bumpy at the start so im going around 50 miles, the z28 is right behind me and we are going around 70. Then the curves start coming i slow down for the first sharp turn and down shift to 3rd and start driving up the curvy mountain road going 50-70 the whole way up grip driving and shifting to 4th of crouse =D. Each turn i see the z28 getting further and further behind and see him always try to catch me at the straights but they arent long enough for him to. Finally we reach moraga and i slow down, in the end he was about 8-10+ cars behind me compared to being a few feet from my bumper..., finally i turned on my street where my house is. It felt really nice beating that camero going uphill, which a cocky HS kid proll just got. I know on the freeway i would have terribly lost but wheres the fun driving straight =D. My car just has intake and n1 duals for exhuast on a KA motor and has no suspension... i wonder what would of happened if i had some after market suspension to stop the body roll =D well yea thats my story... I just wanted to post on the forum for anyone who cares to read about my first real race, i dont normally wanna race because if i get a ticket that means im f*cked. No PO-PO on the curvy road haha..
