    killing with one gear

    this past week i did some driving around just for the hell of it... i just got my 93 pro dx so i kinda go for drives a lot because its fun, not the fact that gas is 2 friggin bucks a gallon though, anyways im in the city at the so called "circuit" where a bunch of kids drive around on the weekends and race and such, 3 very interesting races.... and results which caught me off gaurd.

    first- i was at a stop light with my friend in the passenger seat, both of us guys, and these two chicks pull up beside us in a subaru and look over at us and i ask my friend if i should take off and he says no i dont think their gonna try to race so dont bother, well sure enough the light turn green and they are gone so i accelorate my heart out and didnt realize that i was at 6500 rpms and going over 30 miles an hour while still in first gear in my SOHC and the rev limiter was nowhere to be heard... hmmm... long story short, i spanked the pants off those chicks by like 3 car lengths and i didnt even go off the line to start

    second- these two guys pull up in an old civic with this crappy sounding exhaust and the passenger yells to me
    Him: "do you want to try to race?"
    Me: "Yea, sure"
    Him: "Where do you want to start"
    Me: "whenever we catch a red light"
    no sooner after i said that we were at a red light and off we go, again i crushed them in first gear at the next light they turn immediatly, probably to avoid my taunting

    third- i am coming home from the "circuit" on the bi-pass and theres this newer type cav in front of me and he's doing about 75-80 while im trying to do about 80-85 so i swing into the right lane and try to pass him, meanwhile he speeds up and i end up behind a tracktor trailer, so i swing back into the left lane and he slows down so he is driving the same speed as the truck, meanwhile i drop down to third, and i assumed he was dropped to 4th and he took off, within seconds i was back in the right lane passing his slow a$$ and giving him the finger, at my exit all i saw was a glow of his headlights way behind me

    my intake should be arriving this week, then the first week of june is time for ground wires, muffler, potential for a full cat back, headers, and some interior and body work, my cardomain page will be up shortly so you can see the 1st gen blossom

    welcome to the board, cool kills, you know the newer cavs can take the dx especially on the highway, he let you go, where are you from? and before you mod the dx 1/4 mile it, you will be glad to see the improvement of you work (in number form), my dx 1/8 mi @10.9 and 1/4 mi @17.2, stock
    happy posting

          thanks for the feedback and the nice welcome, i plan to get one of those dyno things that they advertise like the gtech pro or something similar trying to compare them and read peoples opinions, the closest dyno place around here is like and hours drive and its 40-65 bucks so i figure i can spare myself the money and the accuracy, my goal is to at least run a little behind my friends 200+ HP neon by the end of july, before he goes off to the air force, its the fastest neon ive ever seen besides the SRT4, which by the way... there are 5 electric blue SRT4's at "the circuit," they have their own crummy club, o well.

            Yeah I don't think the cav was really racing. The latest Gen cav/sunfire/saturn all use the 2.2 ecotec engine, which is fairly quick, even with an automatic. I got walked pretty badly by a recent model sunfire coupe in my 93 DX.

                      last year in the speed world challenge series, some of the bmw's had stickers that said "I got your zoom-zoom right here" on the inside where the camera could see it, it was ****in hilarious

                        I don't remeber there being headers for a sohc motor.

                        ------------------------

                        The sohc has pretty good pep on the highway. A friend of mine has a sohc 1.8L and it kept up pretty good on the way to that mtma meet thingy bbq majit.
