Don't drive like a *** with your pregnant girlfriend in the car...
Man did I hear about this once the camera was off, LOL!!!
The reason I'm posting it here is at the end is a clip of when a highly modified 2008'ish F250 Diesel pulled up next to me, and stood on the throttle. Truck got the hit, but you can see what happens in the video
ENJOY!
Let me know you guys think.

I also raced a 2009'ish Evo that night, but the video quality was horrible as it was already dark out after we where heading home from dinner. I pulled about 5-6 lengths or so from 55-100mph. Also ripped on him a couple times from a slow roll. sounded stock.

Nice to see a kill video buddy. Those cars weren't really much of a match for your setup.
Haha, I would avoid doing pulls with the pregnant GF in the car. Fix that interior, you got your HVAC dials hanging all over the place and your shifter boot is nowhere to be found. Did you never get the correct bezel and boot after you swapped out the slush box?

Haha, fun video.
I had my girlfriend threaten to never ride in my car again if I was reckless again. She almost got out and started to walk. It happened when I got poll position at a light, and a Scion TC pulled up next to me. It was full (Driver and two passengers) and they were just fooling around (revving their engine and hoping for a response). I knew they were doing it all in fun because the they were smiling and looking at me, plus the guy in the back seat was laughing and making hand signals that his driver was an idiot. So I give them a little show and hit some high RPM's and they all give me a thumbs up. We both then proceeded to burn the tires as the light turned green. Wasn't a race but just a little fun. That's when the girlfriend through one of the nastiest fits since our relationship.

My girlfriend always flips out whenever I drive hard. She screams and yells my name like she is about to die. I tell her that's how I feel every time I'm in her car and she is driving, and thatI don't scream for fear that it will take her attention away from the rode even more.

I bought the gauge pod kit that moves the radio up, so you can put gauges under the radio, but I have been far to lazy to put them in, so everything is stll all pulled apart.
i have a hurst shifter boot/bezel thing that covers that hole up, and is a really good looking piece. Once the car is running right, and I figure out this code 92, then Ill get it put all back together and sorted out.

Shes pretty shy, and she knows the camera is on, so she won't be as..... animated.... as normal, but she sure had a lot to say about my actions when we got home, lol!

Yea, It wasn't a good match up. But some mod's and those turbo car's pull hard on naturally aspirated cars at this elevation. The turbo is not effected as much by the elevation.

IDK about burning the tires at a light, but I dont mind getting on it next to a car I know has no chance in the world
LOL, yea, once I get the bottle hooked back up, or the next motor I plan that will be 550 to the tires all motor (plus a 200shot) I wonder if she will flip out.

Her neck muscles are stronger than you give credit for.
Having an understanding girlfriend does make enjoying the hobby quite a bit easier.
Way back when my son was still facing backwards in his car seat, his head would tilt down with the slightest amount of throttle. I'd avoid any crazy driving with a baby in the car but one time I had the mother's approval.
At at red light with NOTHING out in front. No intersections, driveways, sidewalks etc. Just an empty road. A Camaro IROC pulled beside my 88 LX with a couple young dudes throwing my revs and getting all happy in their car. Wife twisted over and held the boy's head down. Let them have it she said.
Anyways, hate to sound contradictary but you should tone it down a bit in rural areas.

yea, she deals with my **** well. I dont do anything crazy in traffic. the only part I regret is that part where I fishtailed first and second, that could have got ugly, and I could have slammed into someone.
