Yellow S2K (+ Mach1)

Just got my water pump in today so me and a buddy got that in quick and headed up to Advance to get some coolant since most of it was on my garage floor or the pulleys (causing an awful squeak).

As we are leaving Advance, I tell my buddy we'll take the long way home just to make sure it's running good. Just as we are pulling out, a yellow S2000 rolls by that thank I think lives by my friend (off McClay). This guy is always revving at us since my friend always has our cars parked out front, so I was glad to see him. He at least has exhaust but maybe some more stuff, don't know for sure. He was alone.

Take off in his direction, and he's driving pretty fast down Jungermann but we caught him at the 94 light. We follow him to 364 and get next to him. I give him a 4th gear bellow at like 50 just to make noise. I hear him downshift and I know it's on.

Take off from 3rd around 55 (bad spot but oh well) and leave on his hit. Quickly stop his pull, and since he likes to rev at us, I returned the favor with a nice douchebag-ish "peace out" sign and nail 4th and proceed to jump out to a 4 or 5 car lead letting off around 100.

I wanted a race from my good spot, so I switch lanes behind him so I can avoid the traffic ahead and I honk it off from 60ish. 50mph later, I was 5 or 6 cars out. We come around a corner slowly since I figured he had enough ass whooping, but I was wrong. He wanted more.

I motion for him to take off but he didn't understand and rolls his window down. After a couple attempts, he finally heard me yell "I'll go on your hit" and downshifted. I told my friend I'd fuck with him this time, since I have never really done it. I put it in 3rd from 45 (good 2nd gear territory) and he takes off. I floor it, stay door to door til about 65-70 where I would have normally shifted to 3rd and proceed to leave him a bus+ back after shutting down in 4th gear around 105, but notice he's coming up fast trying to do a fly by so I throw it back in gear just as he's coming around me as I slowed to ~90. He's still in it, about 3 cars out when I start to reel him in, hit 5th and just as I get to his bumper, he let's out with me blowing by him at 130.

At this point, he has to be done. Nope, he still wants more. I guess the being in the wrong gear gave him false hope. We slow down, my buddy yells "we'll go on your hit" but he said he wanted a 25 roll. We are like WTF? but oh well, he gets the hit from 25 and I spin a little but hit 2nd, and run out 3rd to 85ish and let out a bus+ ahead. He STILL wanted to race but I was done so my buddy just waved him off and we went our separate ways after getting off at the same exit.

We turn around and head back towards home the other way on the highway, when I tell my friend I'd love to see a stang to top off the night. About 3 miles down the road, I got my wish. We are talking and cruising in 6th around the speed limit when I see/hear a Mustang pull beside us, and notice it's a Mach 1, maybe with exhaust.

I drop it to 5th to see if he wants to play and give him some noise. I hear him downshift from a chirp of back of the tires and he comes flying up, so I grab 3rd as quickly as possible from 60ish and pull about a car between my rear bumper and his front and let off at the top of 3rd for traffic.

Tried to get another run in, but he got off. He threw a thumbs up as we went our separate ways, I waved and headed home.

I told another friend about this kill and he asked if the front end was fucked up and, while I didn't notice it before, I did notice his headlight was out on one side so it could have been him.

Does anyone here know the S2K?

Sounds like the same mentality at least.

Sounds a lot like him. Flying down Jungermann through some traffic, then accelerating pretty quick up to 364, then nailed it when we went separate ways (he went down Creve Couer Mill Rd). I think it did have black wheels like someone mentioned in there. I even psoted in that thread lol I'll run by my buddy's hosue today and see if the car is there.

Forgot to mention, he was a younger guy but it was dark out so I didn't get a good look at him.

I don't know but probably. He was heading from the direction his house would be if it is the guy that lives by my friend.

For your sake I would take the info like speed and location out of your text. Or was this all in a "video game"?

What do you have done to your car?

Is what my buddy? My passenger wasn't him if that's what you went. He has a BBK ORY and 1 muffler, not an X with 2 mufflers like mine. He hasn't begun the part out yet, but he said he'll post a thread on STLSR when the part out begins.
