    I don't "race" much in my VX, with the gas prices and the god forsaken Vegas traffic and a 17mile commute... well you get the picture...

    Buuuut, I did try taking on... I think it was a late model Frontier. The guy just wouldn't leave me alone on the freeway. (pulls up next to you and gases, then slows back down next to you, then gases up again type of deal) Lets just say after awhile, I could't stay up front.

    Wish Morgen-Tech was still around for that S/C kit +intake and exhaust =(
    [/thinking to self]

    BTW Costie, Stick around, this place isn't all that bad. Alot of them chime in to help when needed and some come in and out with there own opinions (which happens in any convo/chat).

    I raced a colorado recently, beat him.

    A lot of cars/trucks start to mess with me,
    but you can tell they are so unsure what the heck they are messing with.(debadged)

    Ohh man, the one thing that really pisses me off is when driving on the free way, these larger SUV's and Trucks think they can just push Lil Ol' VX around. I constantly get cut off, like to the point where there tail end would touch my front if I dont "blip" (tap) the breaks. Makes me want to get a air horn so bad! [ROAD RAGE!!] naw j/k

    Unhappy

    I attended the event at the following link several times last summer and finally brought my supercharged VX out to take a shot at some of these guys.....the only problem....nobody would race me! I think that there is a bit of a clique there plus as mentioned above.....alot of people don't know what to make of a VX and don't want to take the chance of being beat by a SUV. I really felt that I could have won a few with the advantange of TOD & our gear ratio and the fact it was 1/8 mile. But, alas, I'll never know.

    If you look at the photo gallery last event (October 14th) run at Zelionople, PA and scroll through the pics on page #7 in the gallery...you'll see my VX midway down the page below a couple of Wranglers....I tried to race them but they would only run against each other.

    While making a left turn recently, some woman driving one of those BMW SUVs felt I was impeding her progress and went wide, trying to zap me on the outside. Well, she got me and it seemed that the VX didn't quite have the beans to put down the insult (sorry Costie', I tried). At the next signal, the arogant smirk on her face was rather galling, but a I am positive that deep inside, she realized that Proton yellow trumps blase Beemer silver any day of the week. Sure, I may have come in second, but I aced her big time on style points!

    On the point of losses, some kind fellow in a testerossa (sp) was nice enough to let me keep up with him. Once the grade went from uphill to level he was gone.
    don't hate
