Kill story

[ZFreie]

So, new "kill story" more like a tie.

Me and a new Mazda 3? were messing around getting on the highway, and there is traffic so we cant line them up so we just pace and blip the throttle at each other for a min till traffic opened up.

In the mean time a wrx came out of no where and when we started our pull he turned off lol Not sure if he was already losing or what.

By the time traffic had cleared we were approaching the on ramp for highway so we did a 60-115ish pull and it was a dead tie. He was behind me during the pull and he didnt catch me and i didnt pull on him.

Ive seen him around before so im hoping ill get a good run with him soon..

I feel like from a dig or low roll I woulda slaughtered him, any idea what he might have had done, or more about the car? I don;t know imports so i have no idea what it really was.

If it hung with your car it's probably a Mazdaspeed3 (turbo)

No way it was stock right? it was a 2010+ model cause it had the hood scoop. Everything I can find says i should be making MUCH more power then a stock one, and I have a good weight advantage. Perhaps he was tuned and bolt ons?

mazdaspeed 3 like alex sed. factory turbo in the 300hp range?

260bhp was the only # i could find online, and i have a few hundred lbs weight advantage, im guessing it had to have been tuned and more boost? atleast i hope a stock speed3 isnt a race for a botlon lt1 lol

Pretty sure that car is still lighter than yours even with weight reduction. If he had bolt ons/tune/more boost/any of the above it should be a good race.

So clearly I am the faster car, if it was dead even now, with gears i would have pulled a little. Don't forget I'm bolt ons minus stall and RR. And to boot a 60 roll race was HIS race, I'm guessing it would be bad from a dig being fail wheel drive.


Either way thats the best race ive had in a while, He has a fancy vanity plate so next time i see him ill try and get him to stop and chat and see whats up with his car.

Traffic light/dead stop.....Universal sign of "let's run" thrown by overly eager other driver.

Red GTO + young driver = an ass hurting by an old man in a H/C Vette. Wasn't even close, 5 car lengths by 70. It's been awhile! Wife being pissed.....so worth it.
