So, I was dirving down a residential street to get to a man street el camino, and I see behind me a white evo kinda riding my ass and reving a bit high. I dont pay attention cuz I dont think he wants to race so i get to a red light before a left turn onto el camino. And hes behind me and revs his motor 3 or 4 times, so i rev hard once, and he gets ancy and starts reving and movin forward. So I turn on el camino and slow down and put it in second and cruising at about 3000 rpm i wait for him to come up, he does and I honk 1 2 3, and he guns it and i gun it but got the torque and move up about a car length, then I hear his turbo start spooling real hard, and I think ( OH SHIT) and he blasts right up to my door maybe got a nose ahead but I shifted to third, and got half a car length ahead, and then 4th and iam a car length up and then I let off, I look over to give a thumbs up he doesent wanna look over, then i catch up again to enforce the thumbs up and he nods. I was happy I got a race, its been a while. and it was a good challenge. nice white evo too, real clean.
