1ST EXPERIENCE DRIVING A BOOSTED CAR!!

in #cars7 years ago

As the title says, this was my VERY first experience driving a boosted car and oh man, what a joy it was!

One of my closest friends had suggested I take his car for a spin and film it for my Youtube channel. Without hesitation, I immediately said yes! :). The link to the video is below,

Being very cautious while having around 400KW's of power at the end of foot, I took the car for a cruise down the highway gently shifting through the gears. After getting use to the throttle response and becoming familiar with amount of power the car pushed out, I slowly started to pick up speed and acquire some fun out of the car.

(This was on my way home) - I admit, I was nervous to launch on pull away straight off the line, but something told me to go for it. When I reached the stop street, I had this urge to get the rear wheels spinning and get the car to scream and get some burnt rubber to scent the air. With my adrenaline and confidence building up, I pushed the throttle down, kept the clutch and popped it out!... this was literally the smallest wheel spin ever lol, but to me I had achieved something!.

Holy shit :O
I want to do that too :)

Lets make that 2 of us! lol

Haha that was a real monster of a 200sx. I used to have a 200sx with original motor and an R33 with an RB25. Good stuff keep it up :)

Hey Jason!!, do you have pics of them?, i would love to see them :)

I think I have pics of both cars somewhere, I'll dig them out and post them at some point, you follow me so you should see them pop up in my feed at some point. The pictures are really old though, I had the R33 when it was the latest model out, before the R34 was released!
I should do a car list maybe :)
