By a ZX2 ESCORT!!!!! Me and a couple buddies came from the movies, seen "taken" it was awesome. We're leaving the movies, driving to the bagel store, we get there and a bunch of people are over there. We go to leave, and as we do i notice this loud car near me. It was a black small car-i thought it was a civic. Looked like a jelly bean haha.
He was driving beside me, with a girl in his passenger seat. His car sounded like a mix between a civic and a wrx sti-a deep sounding 4 banger. We get to a light (it's 1:30am), my buddy rolls down the window and asks what the dude has done to his car. This guy was cool, he smiled and said "not too much, just enough to beat most stangs". He revs on me at the light near walmart (1/2 mile of dead road) so i rev back. He then says we should "let them loose" lol. The light turns green, we launch hard, i spin till 30mph then take off, he rode his clutch HARD and launched. By the time my AT shifted into second, he was neck and neck with me, my car is now at around 60mph, this little car was at my front bumper. At around 75 he was 2 cars ahead. He braked, so did i, then we slowed down to talk. He said he had "basic engine mods" whatever that means for his car. I asked how much his car weighed, he said it was around 2600lb's???? DAMN i guess it's the power to weight ratio.
What did this kid have done to this car to hang with my LSC?? Anyone have experience with those fords??
