Protege5 vs. Riced 1.6L Pro
 
There's this highschool kid here in Westerville that has a '99 1.6L protege with a huge aluminum wing, nitrous stickers, and a loud exhaust. Anyways, he works at McDonalds and last summer I went through the drive through and he says, "nice car, too bad I'd blow it off the road!" I was like"what do you have", he points out his car and says that it's turbocharged. Yeah, whatever. Anyways, tonight I was on my way home and I hear someone revving behind me so I put my window down and put my turn signal on, hoping to god that he'll follow me. We turn and get side by side and I ask him about his "turbo" and he says that he blew his headers, so he got rid of it. What! Now he say's he's only got headers and exhaust(still has a HUGE nitrous sicker on the back of his bumper though). At the next light he turns left and I follow, since that's the way I'm going anyways. I don't get on it right away, because we were right near a cop hideout, but he does and gets about three car lengths ahead of me. After I feel that I'm safe from cops, I hit it and wined out second, now I'm about two cars behind him. Next, third gear and I go from one behind to about two infront. It was gross! I shift to fourth, because I'm slowing down and he just looks over and begins swerving through traffic. I hate street racing, but this kid deserved it. Just thought I'd let you all know. Later.

at first I almost got pissed you were bragging about beating a 1.6L Pro...but since the guys was a punk McDonalds workin liar(there are no headers for a 1.6,and blew his turbo header so he got rid of it,wtf is that??),so good for you!!!...

Hahaha, why do people have to pretend they have something they don't. I thought that got old in primary school already. :D

the only 1.6L turbo 3rd gen i know of is in my area, and it took him a lot of work to get it right!

at least you didn't swerve through traffic with him :)

you should have got out and bitch slapped him.

He's an idiot. Did he truly think he can beat you? After racing against Lost_Concept's P5, it's going to take a lot more than headers and exhaust to beat a 2.0

He's a f*cking dumbass.
