Yay for me... on the way home from work last night and my buddy from work decides hes gonna follow me home. we get to a red light... look over at him n he catches my eye... both stare at the light... turned green, dumped the clutch, had 1/2 a car on him in like 1/2 a sec. only got up to about 45 cause some guy in an ol chevy pulled in front of me... but i still got him up till then.

He CLAIMS his clutch is goin out and some other BS yet when i turn off at the the redlight b4 my house, he smokes the tires takin off to go to his place...

i say me 1 him 0

well, if he has a 99 and up SI, there is no reason he should have lost to you other than the fact that he is either:
A. a bad driver
B. His clutch really was going out
C. You dont realize that he would have beaten you once you hit 3rd gear anyways
