    Me vs Probe GT (Turbo)

    Well on wednesday on my way to take my Chemistry final for college, I was driving and from back prolly a half a mile a probe GT gradually made up space (4 line highway with a divider). So As I am going 50mph, the speed limit cause I am early, he catches up right were it goes from 50 to 45 to go through an intersection then you can go right to go out of the city or go left to go into the city, so I am going in and he is too. He goes to the right to get in front of me, and so I just want to play so I keep going 50, he speeds up and me in 5th gear I just keep speeding up gradually, at 65 he downshifts and I see a puff, I was at his rear bumper, so I downshift to 4th easily pull up next to him, while spinning 1 wheel the whole time STUDS SUCK, then I blow off twice (I love the RFL), he gets behind me. Well going into the city we go around a 25mph 90 degree then jump back onto a 4 line divided highway into the city. So I go around at the normal 35 around then turn then go the speed limit 45, well the probe slowed down behind me and got about a 1/16th of a mile back then all of a sudden I see him comming, as soon as he hits my door I go from 5th to 3rd and jump (again while spinning 1 tire the whole time), well as I jump he gets over in front of me, almost hits me cause of my jump, so What do I do? Jump over to the other lane cause there was traffic in my orginal one so I was gonna get over, so me being me I ride his back bumper and block him out so he can't get over then goes by him and I smile and he gives me the "I thought I had you but you are one smart SOB". My friend in the car started busting out laughing about 2 secs after I get in the other lane after asking me why I don't pass him.

    All in all it was supid cause this is an area in the State Patrol Training Ground in WA but it was fun, I think 1st time we got up to 95, then the 2nd time I think we got going 110.

    If I had my Faulkens still on it would have been nothing, the studs gave him a chance.

    He had Exhaust on the Probe and It was a GT Turbo. 89-??

    And tonight I was driving home and a MX-6 (newer one) gets up next to me, a car load of 16 yr olds and revs it, I blow off at them and they get the "What was that" look. So at the stop light I rolled down the Window and said "Nice 6" they were still confused cause I bet they thought I was a mexican from my car . Spun the tires and blew off again for them and then went home, no race but I hope to meet him again cause I bet he thinks his 2.5L MX-6 is fast

              It will go up too 22psi, a cople of pgt owners have had it up that high. its not good for it, but it will do. But most have been @ 14-15lbs, and just run that.

                  Yes I am running a VF10 hybrid,

                  Yes the snow or more like ice is that bad here

                  I don't know how much he was boosting but he def. had exhaust.

                  And most my studs are gone off the front anyways, let my dad and brother borrow my car each once and had around 10 studs left on each tire so I said, oh well might as well have fun. Now i have around 2-4

                        they peak at 17lbs and are lucky to get 9psi in there by redline. The large motor and small turbo will result in a very early power peak.
