I saw a big truck today with two rally racer WRX’s on a trailer. One was brand new (hatchback) and the other was a year or two old (sedan) southbound on the northway this afternoon.

Saw a white WRX(STi?) with gold wheels and black bug shield on Western a little while ago. It was the older model, '02 I think. It looked really familiar, I think I’ve seen it before somewhere.

Saw the fag with the ricer corolla do a ricer flyby on rt.9 today. In the part thats only 2 lanes :headbang

WTF is with this kid? The kids brother messages my brother (they are in the same grade) on aim and talks nothing but shit about this gay ass corolla. I don’t think he realizes I am putting MORE than DOUBLE the amount of horsepower to the ground as him. :lol Last summer he passed me by the airport and went around telling people he “smoked a brand new Cobalt SS” :headbang Fuckin hate this toolbag.

Just in case you guys forgot what it looks like, heres some pics and quotes from facebook:

> yessssss trust me it goes much faster i slowed down when i went to reach for the camera

> New badge

> i have a tendencie to park on curbs

:gay :gay :gay :gay :gay :gay

For a daily driver it’s fine yes. But to talk about it like it’s something fast and worthy of modding is just ridiculous :lol :gay Not like his “mods” are even worthy of mentioning… lol

I’ll tell him I will race but only for 100 cash. He is pretty insistant that he beat me before so maybe he is dumb enough to actually throw down to race. :mwahaha

I should pull mine off, atleast to paint them. The factory paint peeled off at the carwash and they look like shit.

Really I should see if the OZ Rally Lancer is still at a junkyard I know of and maybe Ill buy the wheels from it since theyll fit my car. Either that or some Elantra GT wheels.
