well, it is a 4cyl mid line economy car from gm, so i knew it woudl happen at some point.
i got my first "race" in the alero adn got owned pretty bad.
black integra, had type r badges(don't they all), some wheels that were actually tasteful, and at least a cat back(prolly header as well from the way it sounded, but cat must have still been intact cause it wasn't hella loud).
i got the hit by a little when the light changed, didn't dump the clutch or anythign cause this car wheels hops like you wouldn't believe. i did ok in first gear, then grabbed second cleanly and suddenly the situation changed a bit. the integra caught traction and took off on me. it was bad enough that i didn't even bother to grab third, i just watched him walk on me. :( i jsut threw it into 5th and cruised the rest of the way home.
oh well, i guess i will have to pick on an even lower class of citizen to get teh new car a win. anyoen know where there are any yugo's or daiwoo's that wanna race? :roll:

my car is only rated at 140hp and 150ft/lbs. prolly weighs in around 3100 with me in it. so it is pretty slow.
any v-tech motor woudl have gobs of power over me and i think most hondas weigh less anyway.
i got it as a commuter, so i am not really dissappointed. as soon as he acted liek he wanted to run i had a pretty good idea of what was about to happen, i just thought it was gonna happen before second gear. lol

i thought the alero was a 6 cylander. Â*and i never knew it came in manual.
that is in GL trim. the next step up from my car. the GX trim i have comes wiht a 4cyl and has a "sport" package that installs the 5spd, spoiler, 15inch alloy wheels, and leather wrapped steering wheel and shifter knob. basically creating a rice pimp alero :)

‘Twas the night of Christmas and caught at the light,
Was a “Type R� and no cops in sight.
I will try, I will try, I will try with this small motor,
To beat this damn Ricer even with it‘s stock motor.
As the light goes green I pull like no joke,
And the Type R erupts in bits of tire smoke.
Racing ahead I'm the star of the action,
But I know I'm in trouble when that Type R gets traction.
Grabbing second I hear the RPM's scream,
I now hear the noise of that rice monster gaining,
But all I can do is keep this four-banger straining.
In a second the shockwave hits like a blast,
And my turd is now a thing of the past.
Don't bother with third cause now it's too late,
Just put it in 5th like you can relate.
Looking up at the taillights as they get smaller,
The driver backs off just to give me a holler.
"You can't win them all," he says in fling,
“You may not win any in that silly thing."
I looked down and turned off as he pulled out of sight,
With my new mods tomorrow I hope it’ll be a better night.
