***Maybe you guys can help me out on this one... I ran this guy from Corona, to Lake Elsinore a few months back, and it was a White 4 Door LC2, Lowered, (possibly with cut springs with the way it was bouncing) and a red Borla sticker above hie seemingly stock exhaust. Anyone know of this guy? Pretty fun story, if you guys want to hear it... it ended in him getting pulled over. :|
I know I'm probably going to get alot of BS flags on this, but let me just say this in my defence... the driver makes the car.:

... and so it begins:dead:
I wouldn't have considered it if they weren't racing. There have been plenty of times when I play around, with people, to se if they're interested, but they aren't. But these are ones that lasted anywhere from a mile, to 20 miles, of playing around. All of which were freeway runs. I typically don't do stoplight drags. the only time I remember doing it in my LC2 was against a kid in a Lancer. (Non-Evo) I left the light and launched on me, and ran to the next red, so I decided I'd give him what he wanted, and he pulled on me by maybe half a length at first, waved to me, then missed his shift. Then I passed him. So I took that one, not because my car was faster... just cause he was a bad driver who got cocky.

First off most of these smell of BS from a light. Where the accent does have an advantage over alot of other cars, no weight. On the highway?!?! Thats where the accent IMO is at its weakest. Even my elantra with an intake tore apart a 5spd 1.6 accent.
