worst kill would have to be, among many others, getting killed by a 1st gen Talon hitting 17 AWD lbs of boost. He destroyed me on the launch and as I was reeling him in, he missed third and still won. He was a cool guy once I met him but I felt bad about it.
generally speaking "worst" refers to something bad. take, for example, this thread. It is entitled "worst death", referring directly to the *bad*-est loss you have fallen victim to. However, when someone makes another of the eleventy billion "kill" threads, feel free to express your aforementioned information. you are the weakest link. good DAY sir.

...the sarcasm is killing me this morning lol

2 deaths. Both of them happened "a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away".
Back in the late 60's I owned a pure stock 68 RoadRunner with a 383, 4-speed manual, 3.55 posi rear, and no a/c, p/s, or power options. It ran 0-60 in the low 6's, and the 1/4 in the high 14's. Not fast by today's standards, but decent back then.

1st death-
From a dig against another 68 Roadrunner, but it had a Hemi. I knew I would lose, but I just wanted to see how fast these cars were. I quickly found out. It tore me a new a$$h..e. It was a few car lengths ahead by the time I shifted into 3rd. I gave the driver a thumbs up as he was pulling into the next gas station.

2nd death-
Another run from a dig. This time against a 68 Mustang. It was a plain looking white car with no badging, steel wheels with small hubcaps, etc. I figured it had a 390 at best. I figured wrong. It blasted me off the line, and steadily pulled away. It must have had either a 427 or 428. I wonder how many other muscle cars this sleeper made fools of.

Ahh, those were the days, when muscle cars could line up against each other at almost every stop light.

I got beat by a lighting the first week i had my car. Just for FYI i've never owned a V8 or a rear wheel drive so i needed alot of getting used to. He did one of those i'm not telling you i'm going take off and then did. I caught back up to him though and talked and he had a good amount of stuff done to his like pulley, intake, exhaust, and a tune.
those trucks can be fast, my friend's killed a c6 vette (long tubes and complette exhaust) with his i was like he is gonna whup your ***, but he raped him twice, from the hole and on a 40 roll

Besides my brother beating me over and over, I lost to a talon running high teens of boost. Started around 50 and he had maybe 1-1.5 cars on me by 120. I actually did better than I thought I would.

Ricers must have plenty of death stories....
The last time this ricer lost was a couple months ago...it was a 94gt, had me by about 2 cars from a 60 roll, then I missed 4th and made it worse for myself. Oh yea and it was procharged and the guy said he dyno'ed at 521 to the wheels. I never got a 2nd chance because he was paranoid about cops, but I'm sure I'll see him again with my new turbo[sm=crossbonesgif.gif]
