Exactly. How is this my wrong doing? I've been challenged every time this Brooklyncrew adds some new mod to their rice cookers - a Mitzubushi Spider, Honda Accordand WRX STI. First it was a simple 1/4 race for $100, then 200 and thenthree hundredafter the owner of the STI installed a watermellon muffler, cams and engine management. It Still lost. Then they bring on a guy with a Viper to runmy Shelby (538 rwhp -- but a little slower than my GT). Still beat him by a car. He losthis $100.

Finally, last weekend I was challenged in front of about 40 people -- mostly my friends --to a 13 mile Bull Run with a lot of loops andmergesfor $250 each -- $750out ofmyhandbag if I lost.After the crowd drove aheadto the finish line andat different vantage points along the course for a good view, we ran. The best of the three cars, the STI, finished about 3/4 mile behind my GT. At the finish, they didn't stopto pay up. They split up in different directions.Everyone started booing. That stunt made them look real bad. And the word spreadaround town like wildfire. Haven't seen them since.

IKnow. I should not have ran them again. Peer pressure got the best of me that night. I knew they were no match for my GT at a high run -- very few cars are. It is built for road racing.I guess they they thought otherwise. Now all thisfollows me ontothis forum. Wow. Did I learned a lesson.
