Default Mugen SI vs 04 Mustang GT

Hey guys, just wanted to share a little story.

A few days back we were coming out from a party in a 2006 G35 when this guy asks if that G35 was the one that came with Brembo brakes? My friend who owns the car reply saying that no it wasn't. So this guy in the honda tells him that he took a G35 with Brembos in a race. Since I know that guy because he has try to race my friend's 2006 mustang gt with full bolts ons and has also challenge my mustang gt. I told him that his car was just a Civic SI with a body kit some suspension work and a rice pipe and that none of that made his car that much faster in a straight line. For some reason the honda guy kept making comments about his car and how fast it was, it was then when my friend told him to put his money were his mouth was and take the cars for a quick spin. The honda guy decline saying that we were too drunk to race. So that night we let things the way they were.

The next day I send a text to the honda's guy girlfriend which I happen to know. He quickly replys telling me that the only way he would race will be for money. So right away I notice that this guy is just trying to scare my friend and I by talking big but nothing else. So we convince him to come to our house and he could race either the G35 or my Mustang GT or even a 2002 beetle turbo we had around for kicks. the guy ends up coming and quickly he tells me to race for pinks, I was like are you serious, what a child really that only happens in car shows and movies. Either way I told him that it was fine, that I was ok to race for pinks. So after that he tells me to race for money, and to make the story short this Mugen guy ends up shaking hands and telling me that he just wants to race for the sake of it.

At the end of the day I took my mustang gt and I literally rape his poor civic. Every single time I had him like I was expecting. I even started in 2nd gear twice, from a roll at 20MPH in 4th Gear and not even like that would he be even close to me. No matter how bad a beat him, he wanted to keep racing, and we did or at least he did because I was not even pushing my car that hard. So lesson learn for this guy who previously from our race, he had claimed on previous occasion that his car had race and beat many mustang gts of any year and many g35s and 350z.

I just don't see why people like to talk a big game if you can't back it up. The people you could beat in a race are average Joe driving his toyota camry, and he doesn't give a crap. The people who might actually be interested in talking about racing probably drive something that could wipe the floor with you.

I had a new civic ex with just a loud pipe trying to race me, and I wouldn't. He confronted me at a stop light and said "why wouldn't you race me?" I responded "Because when you loose you will blame it on the pizza delivery sign that's on your roof".

The guys girlfriend works with me, everytime I would talk about my car with my coworker who also has a mustang she would always mention his boyfriends mugen honda as if it was a corvette. We mostly ignore her because we figure she knew nothing about cars but when her boyfriend came to us that night, we just couldnt resist. He was acting all though and stuff so we confronted him. That sad part was that he really thought his car was faster.
