Finally happened. I was behind an STi at a light tonight. He was next to an S2000 and there was a 3 series BMW on the left. I see the STi and the S2000 talking about 'it'. Then I hear the engines rev... I knew it was on... I ready my car for combat!!

The light changed, everyone went easy off -- then BOOM! The STi put a whoopin on the s2000 (having traction issues) then its the 3 series and the STi, the STi handily pulled all of them! I was stuck way back in the dust!!! Even behind the S2000!!!! WHAT, YOU SAY? It's true, my 3.0L V6 Taurus (RENTAL) could NOT hang.

I got waxed. It was depressing. Now I am TRULY aware of the sickening power of the STi! = Enough to beat an S2K and a 3 Series. Get a clue.

I gave that same s2k a first gear head start and still pulled him by the time I shifted second.

I've seen a sleeper Tercel before. Looked stock from the outside, except a bit lower.

I was laughing at it at first, until I found out that it had a JDM Toyota turbo-motor swap, that put down 270HP AT THE WHEELS. Considering the car weighs at 2100 lbs full-weight, I bet that thing has shocked quite a few ricers and some V8 owners as well. Shocked me.

Yeah I did. I got a ticket doing 91 in a 60.... I didnt even realize it. However the Cop was a real nice guy and gave it to me for 84 in a 70. He clocked me over 1100ft away. I wouldnt have had a chance, even if my detector was ON and detected the laser.

Anyway, the ticket was only for 100 bucks. No points.
