Default Import vs American.

Here's one story of an Si race against a Sunfire GT.

I was at a redlight with my gf when this kid with 2 of his friend in a ****ty looking Sunfire GT starts reving his engine besides me. I usually pay no attention when i'm with my gf or ask her if i'm allowed to press the gaz pedal She gave me the go for this one.

I just started, taking the starting lead, the shift to the second gear gave me some lenght, then third shift gave me even more lenght, but a red light was coming. So pushing 'til i know it was time to brake, i traded the gaz pedal for the brake one only to see this douchebag flying by me and passing on the red light. So i just tought that his car 1. had no power 2. had no brakes haha
