I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

racin last night.

Post by benjamin » August 02, 2005

lastnight me and my freind nick, my brother, and some people he knows, went out to test the new suspension, it definatly has better traffic weaving now, less car shake and sway. we raced probobly 10 runs over the course of the night,

I lost at a 30mph roll against my freind nicks alpine supercharged and intercooled tiberon gt. he got decent length by the end of the run. Second, from a stop, I held pace the entire time, but would probobly call it a loss. beat an infinity g35 w/ n/a mods, and beat a IS300 with few mods, more for fun.

Unfortunatly the night ended when Nick spun his car out on a winding road, and ruined his headlight and front passenger side fender, the front bumpers cracked a bit, but its "bondoable"

Hahahaha I guess. When I had my licence me and my buddy would go street racing atleast 5 days a week, from like 9pm till 2am and never got tickets or accidents or anything.

Normally well meet up at a park on the side of shepard road, where we might run into fellow tuners, otherwise well fuck around with some runs and then actually go see if we can find other people at local spots. If we do, well race a bit, but really we just prefer to practice amongst ourselves, Really unless were on touge none of us get serious. We will head out of town to road trip and maybe go as far as the badlands for the weekends, the roads are so much better, but yeah, unless its on a gradient and has some sharp turns, its just fuckin around. I am not a fan of drag racing.

whenever I go racing I break shit. Driveline shit. Stuff that I can't afford to fix. Perhaps I should stop racing. Or get a job.... One or the other
