So I was just cruizing on the highway last weekend when i see this red 02-05 1.8T entering from the right. His exhaust is screaming as he tries to get up to speed limit. The roads are really shitty and slippery at the moment. As he goes by me he gives it some "additional" throttle clearly trying to get something going. I don't bite right away due to the road conditions but speed up just enough to keep up behind him. Ten minutes down the road the roads have cleared and I pull up beside him in 4th gear knowing this guy might try to dip on me. So as I get next to him I get on it for a second and let off to let him know I want to play. As I'm cruizing next to him his exhaust goes quiet for a second and we both gun it at the same time. It's neck and neck until vtec hits and I get a serious case of whiplash. By the end of 4th hes looking at my rear bumper and I let off. He goes by me and slows down. As hes getting off the highway he taps his brakes a few times as to say "nice race."
uhhh you do know theres a such thing as black ice right? it appears anywhere during the cold. im from cali and i know this... youre lucky you didnt spin out. btw a type-s vs a 1.8t is an obvious outcome unless you cant drive for jack...

1.8T(Passat,Jetta, or GTI?) What do you have done to your TypeS? A tbe, CAI, or pulleys on a 1.8T won't really do anything. If the 1.8T was a Jetta or Passat and an early MKIV you were racing something with 150hp at the crank plus if it was a Jetta or Passat you were racing something that had 150hp and a bit heavier than you. Oh well just understand that if you were racing a chipped 1.8T GTI that starts out with 180hp chipped however would have been an even race. Good race. More detail about what kind of 1.8T you raced.

Good Story, I was racing my buddy in his rsx with my a4 1.8t and he was pulling on me but then his vtach hit and it broke his neck and he crashed and died. So I guess I won, I celebrated by putting on my hazards and tapping my brakes.
