    First and last race EVER (maybe not ever)

    On my way home from a great date and seeing Iron Man I was cruisin to Justice. as always... although I probably looked obnoxious as my volume does not turn down unless i fiddle with the dial for 10 minuets. so it was pretty loud. This GTi starts hugging my bumper my first thought was OMFGVWFTMFL. He kept annoying me, flashing and swerving.

    he pulls next to me and starts pulling, I was in 5th gear. going 40, dropped to 4th caught up (heindsight wish i would have gone to third.) We end up at a red light. I rev my engine and take off at about 3krpms.. first gear.... USELESS, the street was moist from rain earlier and all i was doing was spinning. I grabbed second and I was OFF. a car length in no time. i put on my hazards. waved, and took my turn to my street.

    I am overall pretty happy with the outcome... of course. I mean, even if i won by an Inch or a mile, winning is winning.

    But, in all honesty, when my tires started spinning all I could think about was the lives that were being put in danger, including MR. Asshole next to me. Although it's fun, I think I want a car like this to stay on the track.... most of the time.

    if my date wanted to slap me for playing, and was like, "wut r u doing? i wanna sla..."- i'd cut in and be like "NO ONE ASKED THAT!", then i'd get laid too.

    If first gear wheelspin causes you to think that people around you are in danger, please don't ever race again. You should probably buy a slower car.

    He was flashing at you?

    Were you in the left lane?

    Also, at 40mph (when youre about to race) you drop to 2nd, not 3rd.

    Why would you not want to use your M as a street car? Its not like 240hp is unmanageable.

    Well you see he REALLY likes running 13" Daytons so 240hp makes it a little scary

    You're not getting flamed for street racing; you're getting flamed for bad storytelling and sounding like you don't know what you're doing, thereby sounding dangerous.

    sn0\/\/ tires ftmfl.

    There are a ton of guys here rolling on 400-700 HP on the street. I know of at least 30-40 guys doing such.

    A stock E36 is not dangerous.

    Unless it's being driven by someone who thinks first gear wheelspin endangers everyone in sight. Even a golf cart is dangerous in entirely incompotent hands.
