My buddies wife always gives me a better run in his twin turbo 997 porsche than he can! I give hime tons of shit that he bought the turbo so he can beat the non turbo even with his bad driving. His wife is a young hot blond who would surprise you!
So you are saying that if she wasn't you would be in?
You could have put way more lengths on her dropping into 3rd since you weren't going that fast anyway, seriously.
I agree in principle, but I've never driven anything as monstrously powerful as a Terminator (let alone a modded one) and my understanding is that if you were to just wind one out, shifting at redline then going right back into WOT you're going to catastrophically lose control. I still agree with your sentiment, but at the same time understand the OP's hesitation.
Real world example, I think: My dad stopped by a local dealer a couple weeks ago, the place he's bought his last three cars from and getting service for 20 years, hoping they'd let him take out an 02 M3 6-speed they had. "It's in back," the guy told him. "Wrecked." Some asshole had driven it through a fence, a tree, and finally a phone pole. My hypothesis is that he was going 60 in third, and (used to a less powerful FWD car) floored it.
ANYWAY, back on topic: The closest I've come to racing a girl I just mentioned very recently here.
Ran across a girl in an LS1 Goat last night. Beat her in the Cummins She could drive though!
Drop that bitch to third and the drive the car the way it was meant to be driven.
I am more than willing to race anyone anytime.....the problem I have is that most guys won't race me. :shrug: I had a 97 Cobra and I'd get more races out of imports than I would out of Stangs or Chevys. :dw:
I'll pull up to a car on the highway.....giv a little rev...drop her down to third...and see what they got. Tried racin' a 04 Mystic Cobra last weekend....but no go...
Guess it's too much of a risk to actually get your @ handed to ya by a girl

Ditto.
Even if they win, all they did was beat a girl in a vert. ;-)
