Default First kill

I drive a 2010 mustang gt, the other car was a late model black lancer, I don't think it was an evo but it was definitely modded. (I couldn't hear anything because we didn't honk it off) I drove fast around a curve and went past them, and after merging on the highway they went to do a fly by. I wanted to honk it off, but they were just trying to get past me as their car lurched forward. When they got to about my rear door, I punched it (was in 3rd around 50 mph) and took it up to 90 where I was pulling it pretty hard about 4 cars (if i had to guess, first time remember) at 90 I shifted into 4th intending to slow down, but they stayed on it and started to catch up so I just punched it to 100 to stop the pull. I then shut it down and they of course, continued up the road. I know this wasn't as good as some of your stories but felt pretty good for my first time, their car was blacked out with the emblems painted red, actually very clean. Not sure what was done to it or even what model it was, but felt good to get the blood flowing.

Nice run, not everyone gets the whole, "line up even and honk" thing. You still put a hurting on them regardless. +1 to what Kerns said. Its a good feeling afterwards. Half the time, my feet and/or hands start trembling from the adrenaline.

This is about the only type of runs I get as well. I'm also in the same boat as you, have plans but not the money

Thanks guys, yeah stone I got quite an adrenaline spike, one comparable to when I'm boxing, when I started to pull away and reach the triple digits it felt like i was about to score a knockout haha

I race so often now that it doesn't happen to me anymore. It used to big time. I would get on the breaks after and my foot would just be shaking up and down like a jackhammer. Now... no big deal.
