Open highway ... Should I?
Hey guys ...
I just recently got some mods put on my car and never really put in action just messed around the highway every so often. Anyway, ever since I got the Vanguard exhaust I have attracted more attention. I was coming back from a really long day at work @ around 3:00 AM I saw so many cars trying to hit me up. First it was a civic hatch back from what I observed had a lot of mods done to it, at minimum an engine swap. But he was hitting me up, I hesitated because it was a civic but decided to entertain him. Right now I have Cobb AP running stage 1+ fmic, helix fmic, vanguard exhaust, and k&n drop in filter. Wow! it was fun burned him (obviously) three times. Then closer to home a 530i wanted to have fun so I romped that car like nothing. Actually at one point in 4th gear I was going back and forth ... hehe just to rub it in. Anyhow I know street racing is weak I only did it because it was 3 in the morning, open road, and my eyes were a bit tired. Nothing better than a adrenaline rush via mods ![]() |

Everyone will tell u "omg bad you must die for street racing now" but i bet everyone has messed around at one time or another. The only good rule you followed if you are going to play is do it at a time where no one is around. I wouldn't race in traffic, 3AM is about the time when you are alone for miles at a time and usually when u get other people out looking for a race. Nice kills.
PS: it's also the time chp catches you because u are the only one on the road going over the speed limit LOL. Choose to use the throttle wisely. Last edited by BcuzAWD; 03-12-2012 at 01:30 PM.. |

While I don't agree with street racing, it does happen and I'm guilty of it in the past. Here's where I draw the line while street racing, and I'm assuming you didn't mean cola.

Can't say be safe, but try to be as safe as possible when you're on your stuff.

such a nice felling. My girlfriend lives super far and i can either take a canyon run there or freeway. the freeway is always dead and last night it was late and i pass a e93 m3 but dont think anything of it becuase where im from e93s are always women. He flashed his lights at me and I decided to play. I burned him by 4+ car lengths haha, now that is a good feeling

Very true, everyone has indulged on an open highway.
However I will say to be careful, CHP peak patrol hours are from 10pm-5am "the witching hours". Reason being is that they are looking for drunk drivers. At 3 am, loud exhaust equals unwanted attention. Cheers!
