Default Low boost Kill (EVO)

Note: i tried to spice it up a litte by giving you all the little details as well as my mental thoughts at the time. Too manny dull kill stories are posted.

So im going to Sonics last night with my car club and i was a bit behind. So im cruising and i stop at a light of a big intersection.

(Now let me describe this intersection for you. This is one of those intersections that you slow down before you hit because you dont want to bottom out your car and/or go airborn. the road is dogshit and it twists right after the end of it.)

So i look to my left and i see some red jap car next to me... . no big deal. I look back over and i see a hood that kinda looks like an evolution hood. hmmm i look back farther i see 4 doors hmm . . i look back all the way and finally see this monsterous wing. Yup. Evo. So now im like ahhh **** he prolly wont go anyhow. Then he revs . . damnit. I rev back. Im thinking to myself, PLEASE can we just get over the intersection before we nail it. I DO NOT want to die today. So light turns green and we both go, we pace eachother for about 10 feet then we both start rolling into the throttle. Next thing you know we're both WOT. (Im not good with peer pressure when it comes to street racing.)

So im in deep **** at this point because im spinning, and its not that spinning you get at the track thats all nice and happy, its the spinning that makes your car jump all over the ****ing place. I short shift into second at ~ 4500rpms (to try to bring my chances of dieing down a little) No use, still spinning, the Evo is ~ 1 car ahead of me and i hear the loudest PING of a BOV ever. So im getting a little sideways then i go a little airborn. My front tires come offf the ground. Ok im still good right? wrong. as soon as the front tires come down it brings all the weight off my rear tires. So while wrestleing with the stearing wheel i hit flat dry tarmac. I dont know weather to cry of happyness of sadness because at that point it felt like my rearend was going to get ripped out of the car (if you've ever been sideways then gained traction real quick you know) so smack! My car straightens up and i finish out 2nd. He is ~ 1/2 car ahead now. Third gear was easy going and by ~ 5,000rpms i was 1-2 cars ahead.

He seemed like a cool guy because he sped back up and gave me the thumbs up.

So that was my fun of the night, i did get to toy with a turbo honduh but that story isnt worth telling.


Low boost kils FTW
