I just got back from grabbing a bite to eat with the wife. On our way out, these two hondas (obviously buddies) were sharking around me. This was all in a 35 mph zone.
We finally ended up at a stoplight. I looked over and saw the typical ricer tach w/optional shiftlight. I then barely noticed a boost gauge. So, I reached down and pushed the 'Hi' boost button on my Greddy ProFec B SpecII Boost Controller.
The light turned green and I leaped out about a car and a half. I grabbed second and then noticed that he wasn't even trying. So, I shut it down...
We drive along as though nothing had happened. He wouldn't look over...acknowledge me...nothing... I'm like...Puh...whatever!
A little bit down the road I enter the freeway and all of a sudden he's right on my butt. Once we clear some congestion, he zips around me and paces me. Knowing a little bit about honda's I knew this was trouble.
I downshift...as does he. I start brakeboosting and then, WOOOOSH!!! He took off like a rocket! Traffic was too close up ahead for me to have room to get rolling. Even if I had the room, I don't think I would've caught him.
After seeing that, I know why he didn't want to go from a dig. Traction...
