mine was also to a turbo caravan. i was in a BMW 318. we both turn left from an off ramp and my lane turns into a mall and his keeps going straight. i need to go straight. i figure im in a bimmer and this is one of those old lunch box looking oil burners. i get on it in 2nd gear at about 30mph and he does too. by 60mph his rear bumper is a tmy front so i let off and see "turbo van" on the back. i couldnt believe it. then i read a few days later that carol chelby set up a few of those vans with turbos.

I'm out cruising one night about 4 years ago in my 95 eclipse GS with i/h/e/rims/altezzas/green tint/green underbodies/green strobes in the clear part of the altezzas/green strobes in the headlights/green interior neon under the dash/green light up pedals/HUGE stereo (4 audiobahn 10's)/fat ex-girlfriend and I'm sitting at a red light, a white integra pulls up next to me (I'm still in my "DSM'S RULE HONDA'S SUCK SO I WON'T LEARN ANYTHING ABOUT THEM" stage) and he starts stomping on it and letting me know that he too has a fart can. Light turns green, as I am finally getting through the intersection I am looking at the little Type R badge on his *** end. By the time I hit 70 he was already slowing down and turning at the next light. Yep, turned out to be a fully built, turboed ITR. I suck at life.

I beat a 1997(i think) Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder with intake header and exhaust, lowered rims nice meats.. anywho I beat him in a completely stock 1994 chevy lumina sedan (not even a euro, it was the base model 140 hp 3.1 V6). That kid literally cried after I beat him, he just paid $18k for that eclipse a week prior

My first car was a 89 ford tempo 2 door. It was pimp, I liked to race old school 4 cyl. mustangs cuz than i could say i beat a mustang even though they had the same displacement engine in them. But ya, this one time i tried to race my buddies POS rusted mid 80's honda accord. I thought i could take him, but since i was young and sucked at driving i "missed" 3rd gear (i.e. let go of the clutch b4 i put it in gear) and I screwed up the tranny. Needless to say i lost and i got harrassed about my flippin sweet driving skillz

This is a story my buddy told me, he was testing out his new r6 down on the west valley highway and he decided to open it up. So he was cooking at about 140 when out of no where an old school 80's style 4 door volvo turbo goes flying past him, rusted panels and all. He said it was one of those "WTF!?!" kind of moments. The guy was long gone so he was never able to find out what made the car so fast.

i have two stories

i was at a stop light with my civic - i/h/e and that was it. Two smoking hot chicks pull up next to me in a grand prix, four door. I looked over at the car and then at the girls and I was like, 'holy ----'. The light turns green and she just punches it. I was wondering where they went until i realized the light turned. So i am trying to play catch up while, in my lane there is a small road construction (with a man hole), So I have to slow and swerve. I couldn't catch them.

My big break of trying to get with two girls got screwed..

On another time I saw a BMW, I wish I could remember the model I think it was a 3.. something it had four people in it and I had my friend (with the same i/h/e) mods and this bmw tries to race me so I try.. He had four people and still just walked me..

I think with that race, and also getting beat by a cavalier, ssei, and mustang cobra it was time for me to put the turbo on..
