Default Girlfriends and Racing...

Okay so yesterday I was coming back and ended up next to a GrandPrix V6 at stop light... My GF wasn't impressed when I launched off the line... Kinda chewed me out and said "you are such a guy..." I wasn't impressed after the launch when the Grand Prix Trounced me... The worst part is I think he was running an Automatic and I couldn't keep up for more than like half a block before he ripped me apart... I need more power... well I need money but hey.... I just thought I'd let everyone hear about my failure *L*

I'm not a big fan of nitrous just because I'm not normally a straight line type of racer... I'm going for naturally aspirated.... I figure if I can get up around 200 hp I should have something that people need to respect.... but getting there is going to be difficult... I don't like to lose...

Ouch. I'll beat a grand prix for you, don't worry.

Every grand prix I've seen has been auto, even the GTP's. You'd think they'd put some sticks in those cars... oh yeah, I forgot, they're made by GM.

yeah, even though they are auto's GTP's can be pretty evil. But a turbo and a cam will easily match it if not beat it

Wish I knew someone with a GTP... I only know someone with a regular one and the car isn't very fast (even though it is v6). I saw someone who tried to fix one up get wasted by a trans am. I don't think I'll be messing with trans am's untill I build my motor for 15 - 20 psi. I want to do it, it's just going to be a while...
