Damn, nobody ever **** w/ me like that!![:@]

Well around my area the "normal" import is like the older Civic DX style car, loads of 3rd generation eclipse/talons and lots of neons(american made but..yea...) and very few mustangs at all. Majority of the area is SUV because it is country land out here. The WRX that revved his 2.2 liter 4 banger at me was from the neighboring town. He saw me yesterday at work and told me he wasn't prepared to launch he was on his cell phone....I asked why he revved up and dipped the clutch in and out, he said "he wasn't really paying attention". well he is full of excuses b/c a RWD took him off the line. He also made it a point to tell me his car was only going to be stock for so long that AR Fabrication(local preformance shop) is building him an engine/turbo setup yada yada... I just let him know i did everything to my car, never once having a shop even look at my car till i needed my dyno tune and gears lined up. That sort of ended the conversation lol. I love ricers always make my aftersnoons pleasant.

edit for typos..

I'm yet to run at the track, last time i went down i was sick so i just watched for the day and the time before my car was stock i just went for the fun, I'm planning to go before school starts. I hope i can break into low 12s high 11s because i in experienced in strip racing, launching off the tree etc etc, i know that stuff takes time to get everything flowing right. I'm looking into getting a different set of heads, im running afr 165s in my setup, anyone suggest a better set of heads for boost?
