Woot I get to post a Kill!

(this is pretty much my first kill in the 4-5 years I've owned my truck, had a couple other races but only one was of any competition and I was outlaunched (Skyline))

So Friday night, I go out with my wife for a couple beers with a few of her co-workers. (I had A beer so no worries later in the story) So afterwards, we were going to head back to our place for a couple more drinks. A new co-worker of my wife's had never really heard of the Syclone so I offered to give him a ride back to our place and wife went with her other co-workers.

So we take off down the road, I give him a taste of the boost launch. He seems impressed. So we go down this side road and end up on a two-lane highway. It's dead, so I take it up to about 110 and back off and coast to the light coming up. As I'm coming up to the light I see a Mustang (late 90's(?)) in the right lane, I'm in the left lane behind a Honda SUV. I'm like dam Honda is my way (LOL).

So we all take off sedate-like and at the next cross-road the Honda turns left. So I boost it up a little and pass the Mustang. He hits it, so I'm pretty sure he wants to play. I was already in front of him when he hit it and he didnt catch up at all. But whaddya know, the light up ahead turns red. :D I look over at the Mustang and the guy says he was just at the track and ran a 14.1. I told him I've run a 13.5 and felt a little sorry for him but I had to show my wife's co-worker what a Syclone can do. So I boost it up to about 5psi and as soon as the light turns grean, I'm gone. Got about a good 3 car lengths on the Mustang by the time I shut down and he wasnt catching up at all.

My first real kill on the street (no one around here wants to play or just doesnt have anything to play with)

Nice kill. I know what you mean about no one wanting to play. I never get races. People see a early 90's S10 and dont associate that with a fast car.

Actually thats funny cause the co-worker at first didnt want a ride. He's a friend of my wife's other co-worker and they convinced the him to get a ride. I mentioned this to him afterwards saying "and you didnt want a ride' his reply was 'well I didnt know it'd be THAT fast!' he was impressed to say the least.

ha ha yeah. My co-workers think that I’m full of it, and think a V8 dodge ram my buddy drives could keep up if I didn’t boost launch. All they have on the brain is if it’s not a V8 it’s not fast. They can only identify speed with mustangs, vipers, and corvettes. It’s funny. I’m glad they think that. Because when someone thinks they have a fast car I’m going to rain on their parade.
