i was the most awesomest racer on the streets..
had a few head-on collisions though (hard to drive while looking at the map)
i beat everybody easily

the trick is to nose em into a tail spin right before you challenge them... then hit the NOS and make that money
cheap.. but effective...

and if you still haven't figured it out.. NFSU2

15" Rota Slipsteams
Muteki light weight tuner lugs
15lbs Hawker Genesis battery
35 Nitrous Express (DID NOT USE)

OK, so minus the nitrous you're at about what 112 hp?

Do you not know how to add? The ngk plugs THEMSELVES add at least 100whp.

If you have read this whole useless post... i've mentioned that it is NOT ONLY about HP/Torque... its about Power to Weight ration and gearing.... 600HP/500 torque don't mean ____ if it only has 1 long ___ gear with 4 27lbs rims. Just had to post this, don't appreciate such condicending comment....

did you mean "condescending"? And, if you can't tell, I don't care about your hp, torque, Power to Weight Ratio, or your gearing. I'm sure others are interested, or something....I care more about your "racing". Please sit down and think about something. Speeding and Racing are not one in the same. Simply doing 60 or 65 in a 40 or 45 zone is not the issue. Are you going to tell me that you drive the same when racing as you do when you speed?

I hope this helps, because I don't think I can dumb it down any more for you.

Best of luck

Doing 60-65 is not the issue, HOWEVER, that is EXACTLY what I was doing whether racing or not.... as I've mentioned b4, I know it is not right and I have no intention of promoting such activity whether this thread itself does or not!..... All i'm trying to point out is all the people that are saying "dont race... blahblahlbah are hypocrite! I understand what I was doing can be dangerous but does these people understand the hypocracy when they pass judgements like that? I don't think so! Don't tell me that you never broke any laws and under any circumstances NEVER break any laws!

What judgements are people passing other than street racing is dangerous(as you readily admit) and that it endangers others' lives(as you seem to understand)? Of course people are hypocritical. I'm not telling you that I don't break laws, as I'm sure we all do at some point or another. I am just trying to convey that I believe street racing is much more dangerous than simply speeding(which I'm sure a lot of us do at one point or another). It's interesting that you title your thread "I know street racing is dangerous, blah, blah, blah", then you go into your street racing story, and your mods...but then double back and say that it's wrong. Kind of like someone posting on how they know drunk driving is wrong, then they post their latest drunk driving story...

Regardless, I know you are proud of the time, energy, and money you have put into your car.

CLIFF NOTE: IMO, threads on street racing are getting really tiring.

We need a "Kill Story" section on these boards so that those who are against street racing wouldn't have to read them, let alone be bothered by the title so that they feel its up to them to come into the thread and voice their opinion.
