We're they really wanting to race because it didn't look like they even try.

No, but how could you tell if they were trying? Even trying, that van would be slow.

This is how I leave every red light, just on the edge of traction.

I put the drag radials on the car and will drive around tomorrow until I catch another red light. Hopefully a new camaro will be beside me this time. Going to try to give it full throttle in 1st and a hard shift to 2nd. I've been dialing in my suspension for awhile and I think i got it just about perfect.

It's so hard to catch a red-light when you are trying. My boss, who drives an 01 camaro, asked if I had a camera in the front for when I get beat!

Smoked him! Way to go! For a second there I thought he had you, but The Big Blue Oval came through in the end!

My second kill! I'm counting it as a kill, even though i didn't know we were racing. I thought the light was going to turn green, so i ended up over the white line. I didn't even see anyone beside me till after I let off the gas. took the drag radials off yesterday, because it's supposed to rain the next few days.
