So, last night, chillin over at lundy's showin off the coupe to a friend or w/e and lundy asks me if i want to drive the CRX and see how it shifts. Um... retorical question... hell yeah! So, me and good ol ken, some of you know him, w/e, get out on the road and start to do a lil warmin it up n stuff and finally feel like its bout ready to go. bout 50 or so, i drop it into 2nd and it starts pullin. by the time i was shiftin into 3rd, i realized, damn, this car is kinda fuckin QUICK! so we're cruisin along and an old 67-69 firebird comes haulin up our ass and then slows down beside us. so, what the hell do you think i did?! 2nd gear pull of course. he got the jump, we dropped back about to his door and then lil rex, haha! started gettin its jolly's off on it, pullin right back against it, prolly 2 times faster than he pulled. inevitably, he let off, we slowed down. we see the tag that reads "ol bird". haha! that ragged ass shit just got beat by new rice!
so, we turn around start headin back from a stop light, i decide i wanna see what this car will do. so, in first, hammer it, snatch the hell outta 2nd and then im holdin a shift knob in my hand but no shifter... hmmm, o well. reach down, no shifter.... hmmmm, DAMN! reach through the boot and find the shifter which is hangin a few inches below the boot. great... hope we can get back! then, outta no where, IS300 comes haulin by us with exhaust and rims. O HELL NO! he slows down at a stop light and starts to turn. we go by, a little rev- happy, bout 7K worth or so. we set somebody off with it i guess, cause the IS came back, and quickly... it gets up next to us and somehow i get it back into second shortly before he's right beside our door. i start to roll into it and he does the same- OH SHIT!
Its a good run! the lexus pulls ahead about a fender length and what? VTEC, yeah, i dunno, some honda bullshit, it comes on. bout 2 seconds later we're our rear bumper to his front, kickin that 40000$ ASS! lol, it was great fun! we get to the next stop light and 2 girls in the back of the lexus are screamin at us and such while im reachin through the floor to find first. the driver rolls the window down and gives us a thumbs up along with a "nice car!". that was about all of the CRX slaying sogga for the night but damn, it had me jitery all night. i think we're gonna trailor it to the track wednesday night on slicks and skinny's so look for an update soon hopefully.
