LOL Great post! That is totally true. Yep I can honestly say he won't try that again. He got a nice long look at the "BUICK" emblem on my trunk too.

Then you get into the entry level cars. Stock 8 cylinder "performance cars". This kill requires a little more care as you do not want to blow the tires off teaching this lesson. (1/2 throttle kill)

Now we get into the serious kill. Mudstains, Vettes, etc. and other mildly modified "performance cars". This is a meticulous full throttle kill - but - only at street boost levels. This is treated more like a pseudo "on the track" race. Race'm like you are going to lose your pink.

The "maybe kill" is where you just aren't sure. The level playing field race. They don't know what you have and you don't know what they have. This one usually ends in a parking lot hand shake and a "wow, nice car" conversation. Or someone's going to jail with a black eye and a bloody nose.


Good kill. The only bad thing is you are reducing the street kills for the rest of us. That guy ain't gonna try that again.
