my two favorite kills, sorry none drivin my dak its still in pieces.
# 2
on my way to work driving my 75 dodge w100(4" lift, 33's, built 360,4spd, lots of rust) stopped at a light, about 100 yards after the light the four lane road narrows to two. in my rearview mirror i see a mustang 5.0 convertible jump out of the line of traffic behind me(everyone was lined up in the lane that doesnt merge over) and come up beside me. the light turned and he took off kinda quick, and i just paced him. he stomped it and so did i, both vehicles hazin the tires. i took a lil lead, he shifted came up by a fender, i shifted and gained most of it back, and slowly started pulling on him. well about that time, he had to back off and merge behind me. loved the look on his face, not bein able to get around that old 4x4.
#1
driving my dads pontiac sunbird(i built it for him), cruisin on a friday night and i end up behind a firebird firehawk, and a 454ss at a light. theyre both revving, so i know a race is on, luckilly im behind the firehawk. the light changes and we all launch. the firehawk is leaving the truck pretty easilly, and im right on his tail, as soon as i have room(about halfway thru first) i jump into the other lane, nail the gas, catch second and fly by him sideways!!!

DAMN I LOVE SLEEPERS!!!!! LOL

I was rolling along on I-85 just north of Durham NC feeling all mellow & cruising along at 75 or so. Traffic was really lite and it was hot out. Middle of the day. This old 5.0 stang with dumped flowmasters (that was the only obvious mod) came rollng right up behind me, sat on my ass (I was in the right lane) and blipped his hi beams. Then he shot around to the left and stomped it.

Well, screw that, I just eased on it in 5th without downshifting and then we were both doing 90. Then 100. Then 110. He just couldn't seem to walk off..... Then we ran up on traffic in the left lane (of course). So we started up the right lane at about 85 mph. We then ran up on the one car in the right lane, and at the last minute, he shot the gap and took off. I missed the gap so I was patient.

The gap came back and I shot over. I pulled into 4th and took off for his back bumper. I caught him with the speedo buried and then slowed back down to 110 (the 120+ was kinda fast for conditions). He spit a snot ball out the driver's window which sprayed all over my windshield. What an ass.......... At this point, i noticed that his license plate said BRNC RDR (Bronc Rider). Guess he thought he was a hot-shot.

So we come up on more left lane traffic and go around to the right. He shoots yet another gap and leaves me stranded in the right lane at 65 mph..... As he pulls over & guns it, I see these black plumes of unburned gas. Oh good!! he's really trying now!

So, just as the gap opens back up for me, I look up ahead and BRNC RDR has stomped on the brakes!! And then this big ol' silver & black Crown Vic comes bouncing out of the median trees and whips a big 180 out onto the tarmac.....

Good ol' BRNC RDR was already pulled over and stopped before the cop could even flip on the blue lights. Of course there I was still trapped in the right lane at 65 mph fully complying with the laws of the state of North Carolina. hahahaha



The worst past: right as the gap opened up (back about a half mile) there were signs denoting a construction zone had begun...... Just 2640 feet's worth of distance, but he was definitely going at least 100 in a 65 zone in a Construction Zone!!

Sure, you may say that thsi is no kill, but if I stayed even with him right up the part where he went to jail,I'd say that's a kill. ahahahahaha

Well this is my best kill story but I'm still pissed at my friend though.

We were at the street races and my buddy (a Lightning owner) goes around tryin to set up a race w/ me. He talks to a Cobra and an older vette and they both don't want to. So I just decide to pull out and race whoever pulls up beside me.
Well I get to the line and a black Lightning pulls up. I ask him if he wants to go, he asks if I'm running nitrous and I say no and he says ok we're on. We hit the gas and I jump him pretty good and I had no idea where he was the whole time but I know I didn't see him beside me the at anytime. My buddy is SUPPOSED to be filming me...well in the video you see me ahead then right when I'm about to pass my friend filming he suddenly "steps off a curb" and the camera is pointed at the sky. I think he just didn't wanna see an R/T beat a Lightning but he still denies it. But I ask every standing around and they all said I clearly beat him by a cab length. Everyone was shocked.

BTW: This is my 2nd Lightning kill. The other was at the drag strip. :)

The 1st week I owned my 4.7L Dakota I pulled up behind a li'l rice burner. Junior had his fancy spoiler, his pretty li'l chrome exhaust tip to make his exhaust buzzzzzzz, his cute li'l tach mounted on the edge of the dash by the left pilar, bassing to some Cypress Hill (remember the song distinctly), with his cap on his head backwards.

We pulled away from the light and he buzzed on down the road. I, of course, stayed in the pedal just enough to stay up with him, eventually he got all big & bad on me and layed into it. He started pulling away so I mashed the pedal a li'l more and a li'l more and a li'l.....you got the picture. Needless to say just as I passed him about a mile down the road at about 80 we could see the blue strobes in the rear view mirror. I let off and coasted down to the 55 limit using a li’l of the emergency brake (no brake lights) and Johnny Law whizzed past me still. Guess I was far enough ahead that he couldn’t tell I was one of the vehicles he was after. About a ½ mile farther I passed Junior on the side of the road signing on the dotted line and tapped my horn at him a couple times and got the finger.

I still laugh my butt off when I see him around town, I have added a tool box, larger tires and some stuff in my back window since that evening so I guess he doesn’t recognize my truck from that night.

That’s my only kill story.

Racing on the streets is not only stupid its ilegal. Shame on all of you.

So anyways my friend has a Supra. And thinks he is a badass. 4 cylinders of Japanease power. He bought it about 6 months after the fast and the furious. Keeping in mind that his car is from the late 80's or early 90's. He assumes because it was in a movie he is a god. So he promptly bolts on a useless spoiler to his car. I mean why waste 400 bucks on an intake and exhaust? Those wont do a darn thing. So we get out of football practice and we stop at a light on our way home. I tap my exhaust so he can hear it over his rap music. Roll my window down and let ol' Willie Nelson sing to him..."On the road again..."

He revs his car way up. The cool tips he has do there job and make me giggle. The ligh turns green. He drops his clutch and the 4 cylinders pound with the furry of a 10 year old Japanease power plant. The next track on my Willie Nelson CD starts up as 318 cubic inches of American iron, growel smiling at the chance to show where real performance is...a big engine.

I pass him before we finish the intersection. As we hit the speed limit I let off the gas. Change lanes so that "DODGE 4X4" is clearly visible. He pulls around me and hauls balls up to 80 or so. Later claimes he won. I smiled and said sure ya did. I was so far ahead of you I changed lanes (with my turn signal) and coasted till you passed me....only to be at the same light I get stuck at.

Wasn't great...but made me smile.

A kid who I know works at a ferarri dealership. And silly kids who saw fast and the furious always want to race him whenn he takes a car off the lot for any reason. He likes to talk about the kid who stoped at a light. Yells "Fearri's Suck" pretends to push a button on the dash, revs up the engine. Launches off at the green light. The fearri waits for him to finish the intersection before casually hitting the gas. Passing him about 10 feet past the intersection.

300K car or the car you got for 6K?

Who do you think is faster?

Well, as far as kills go, I smoked a Lightning, man was that dood p.o.'d. I was at a light and he pulled next to me and heard my truck a rumblin so he starts to rev. I looked at him...he looked at me...the light turned green and I said good-bye...I pulled into a gas station to see if he would follow, all he did was drive by...

I also killed a mustang GT...This was my favorite kill, becasue he pulled up next to me on FM 121 and Southwest Blvd. (for those of you who know where this is...) at the light. He was a young kid, maybe 19 or 20, and he was bumpin the music...I revved my truck and he looked over and grinned, acting like I could not even take him. So he revved a bit, and it was on...I powerbraked the truck and brought her up to almost 2000 rpm...when the light turned green...I left him at the light...He tried like the little engine that could to catch up...but he never closed any gap...as a matter of fact...it was getting a bit wider...hehe. I hit speed limiter going down FM 121...hehe. I stopped at the next light and he pulls up a few seconds later...He sticks his head out of his window to hear my engine and mouths "WTF!" I rolled down my window right before the light turned green and waved good-bye...and then tore ass away.....hehe


I have smoked the honorary ricers, chebby silverados (these people are funny), Mustangs, Camaros, I also raced a Grand National and beat his trailer park a$$...hehe

I also have had the occasion to burn up a couple of would be's with my 2001 4.7 Dakota. I love the power of this truck even though it's not and RT. I've not had this truck long but I've already done the usual mods thanks to this web site and SpeedTweeks.

My best kill story is not in my Dakota but on a past motorcycle I had. An 88 Suzuki Katana. I had the money back then in 88 being I was single and my money was mine insted of "OURS" ha, ha, as it is now. PLEASE DON"T TELL THE WIFE I SAID THAT! I had that bike HEAVILY modified but looking pretty stock. I was on PCH (Pacific Coast Highway) just outside of Huntington Beach when Mr. Bucks and his girlfriend pulled up to the stoplight I was sitting at in his new sloped nose Porsche. Richie Rich starts revving his engine and as soon as the light changed he was gone. I pulled up the next light and Daddy Bucks was there again looking at me and snickering at the little motorcycle. WEEEELLLLLLL I couldn't have that could I? When the light turned this time there was a different story to report. His $100,000.00+ Porsche was reduced to the ranks of LOOOOOOOOSER as my bike rocketed away from him. The best part of the whole story was when he pulled up to the next stop light where I was waiting for him he looked thoroughly discussed but the best part was his girlfriend was looking out the window at me clapping not so much at my victory I think as to his defeat.

That was the greatest feeling.

5.9,
How are you racing on the street with that blower? I have a 98' 318 with a Vortech with 11 psi and all the mods. I can't hook up from a roll or stop much less stall it up to 2000 and launch from a light. I can do 60 and punch into it and light them up. 3.92 ls. what's your secret?

Hey nick, you sure his car is a Supra? I don't think they came in 4 cylinders. All of them i have worked on are inline 6's, most of them with a twin turbo setup (2JZ-GTTE). They can easily take a stock corvette.

Maybe a Celica or something like that.

Whoops actually i think they did have 4 cyliners in the late 80's, and they sucked. The one in the movie is a newer twin turbo one.

Blown- I usually power brake. Then when it gets time to go, I do not floor it to make sure I get traction. Once i get about 60 ft. I let it go WOT. Plus I do not use crappy tires. I have BFGoodrich G-Force T/A's on my truck.

I don't use crappy tires either, I have BFG Comp VR-4's and tried there drag radials along with the nittos. it's useless trying to race on the street. once I baby it off the line and feels good, as soon as I give it more the T-trim just blows the tires off. Maybe I should turn it to 8 or so psi on the street from the usual 11 to 12.
