Default First race with my New shifter!!!!!

I just recently graduated from High School and my dad put me working full time at his store so i have to be at work at 9 am. So i am headed to work this morning and it is lik 8:30 and i am grumpy b/c it is so damn early. This ricer in a GSR pulls up next to me. From what i could tell he had it lowered (he did it the ricer way b/c it was bouncing all over the place when i looked in my mirror as he approached), he had an exhaust and i thought i heard that signature CAI sound but i wasnt sure. He sarted to rev at me so naturally i drowned him out with my big bassani's. I think that pissed him off b/c he tore off that light and i followed. I got a late start but before i topped out 1st i had my rear bumper at his front bumper. I hit 2nd (WHOA IT WAS FAST WITH MY NEW SHIFTER) almost instantly and then topped it out and hit 3rd even harder and faster. I never look over to see where the other guy is during a race untill i let off it. I try to concentrate on what im doing but by the time i hit about 90 i had him by 4-5 cars at least. It was fun! And i am now IN LOVE with my new shifter from UPR.

I work landscaping.

We START at 7:00.

That means I get up at 5:45 to eat, crap, shower, make lunch and get to work on time.

i like my blue thunder.. the actual shifter handle is nice and high like the stock one.. but the throws are really short.

Hate to be off topic, but do you have a sound clip of your Bassani DaMach04.
