Default Had a run in with a M3 and a GS400 tonite...

i seem to catch these races on Wednesday night for some reason. Let me make one thing clear, I raced a E36 M3. Not a E46 but a E36. Well anyways i saw this crazy fixed up GS400(license plate says 1sckGS) on Wilshire coming from Westwood so I caught up to him and then we took off. We had a rollin start, l'm glad I didn't have to launch my car, dont' really know how to yet. To my surprise I pulled on, little by little. We took a quick left to Centinela and this M3 joined him. Once again had a rollin start and I raced with the M3, and I slowly walked away from him. We stopped at a stop sign but this time he had a jump on me and past me before I could get on the boost. Once it kicked in I was fine. We raced to 90 then pulled a U-turn on Centinela/Olympic and did it again. This time it took me a while to pull, but it was pretty much even. Damn I wished I had my FMIC, I bet i would have pulled on him again if I did. Anyways, I talked to them a little afterwards and they were pretty nice, then we went our ways. These kind of races are the best, fun and no bitternesss afterwards just some people having fun.

Default You so crazy...

I wished I had Stage 3 to hang with M3... my 1.8t stage uno would have gotten killed. But going 90 around there is a bit much... I was on Wilshire from Westwood to BH earlier and traffic was not all that clear. But I do find myself taking off around that area, its a nice short run

Default Wilshire? No Centinela:)

I would never do that on Wilshire. I clarified a little on my post, it was Centinela. Actually to be exact it was from Idaho to Olympic. There is a nice long straight. i caught a few races here in the past. Yeah pretty crazy, only happens once in awhile but you are right pretty dangerous nonetheless. A persons luck can only go so far, until you get a ticket or hit a...
