2pm today -- no cars on this industrial street ... white MR2 (older body style) revs on me at the light (green dot). I know theres some soft twists up ahead and I've heard these light MR2's can handle -- so I wanted to see what he's got. I don't know much else about the MR2's, it was completely debadged on the back and had dual exhaust (do they all?).
I majorly goofed my launch because I wasn't ready and ended up spinning so bad the back was coming out on the right side a bit. I managed to correct it quickly and took off. He took a car length on launch. It's alright tho, at the top of second, I had 1.5 cars on him. Passed him like he was going in reverse.
The right twist came up and I popped my VDC back on for safety and gave it all its got.
Quick glance and he's about 3 car lengths behind now, left turn comes up as i'm at the top of fourth now and my tires are getting a little noisy... i'm at my limit, trying not to push it much beyond that. I look back and I see the complete side of his car
(red dot).... yes, he lost total control and he's does two 360's behind me before coming to a stop. I stop at the light and he eventually pulls up. I asked if he's ok and the nods and makes a right in embarassment with a stupid grin.
I'm glad I wasn't next to him when that happened. Kinda reminded me why I shouldn't be street racing, you never know what kinda inexperienced idiot might slam into you.
There's a lesson for me and hopefully he learned something too.
