I've never told you guys this since it so damn embarassing, but I got owned by ...

I can't even say it.

I could give a couple excuses, but suffice to say he walked on me. If you've ever driven an eta, though, you understand the meaning of "underdog".
From that day forward, I vowed to have 350-400hp in a stock looking E30 so that I could blow the doors off of just about everyone (well, 90% of everyone.)

On the other hand, I've won some good ones too, but that's not what this thread is about.

see what I mean guys?
I regret saying anything now, as I have totally jacked the thread.

anyways, at least it's only happened once, as when I pull up to a light next to an echo now, I just make like I'm playing with the radio or something.
Now you all know my motivation. Why do you think I picked my license plate??
