So i'm runnin to lincoln for a new tat, when rolliung start a black Mitsu lancer evo8 blitzes me. I'm thinkin, well, time for a little fun. downshift out of 5, skip 4 into 3, rocket up to his ass-end to let him know who he's baiting. run like this for about 2 miles, and then he skins over a lane. i'm like, my turn. Nope. I got owned by like 250 ft. it's okay though, if i'm gonna lose, it had better be to a bigger car or a beautiful woman.

Those mitsus are fast, but I think they look like a street hooker after a pimp roughed her up with a knife.

agreed. no shame in being beaten by something with an advantage of more than 150 horsepower.

agreed. even when i lose in straight lines to really fast cars, it still kinda cool to see them just take off.

Hell, if you lose on purpose and your windows are down, you might even catch the sound of their engine. Sweet symphonics. Mmmmm.
Anyway... sorry I'm off topic... like always...
ya, so ran back to town, and lo and behold, there the mitsu sits. i had to see it closer. no camera w/ me, but the kid was about 20-25, and apparently decided he didn't have enough power in an evo8...u guessed it. NOS. Custom FMIC snake style fogger, AND full injection. Really cool kid tho, he said he liked to see a classic car like mine that still had the balls to give him a challenge, however futile.*
*my inevitable demise at the hands of too much power.
Ricers aren't all bad...huh

I think it's a nice looking car, although i don't like the straight, turbocharged 4.
If i was to choose a japanese car, it would be a Supra or a Skyline for the straight 6.
