A Couple Photos from "Saturday Night Street Racing"

PBCrunch · 10-09-2002, 10:24 PM

About every other saturday they have legal street racing at nearby Mid America Motorplex in nearby Pacific Junction, Iowa. Brand new paved road track with a straightaway approximately 1/3 mile long. They let people hang out in the pit area and challenge other people to races. The racing happens on the straight, and you get to drive back on the curvy (fun!) parts of the course.

Anyway. Sorry about the bad photography. It was DARK.

My RSX:

My friend Jason's Toyota Matrix XRS (he beat me):

Random riced-out Civic Hatch (I was too proud to race this):

Very fast Mitsubishi Eclipse (This guy was scaring Corvettes away):

Toyota Supra:

Mazda Protege5 with 75-shot that beat me:

Badass Subaru Impreza WRX:

Mazda RX-7

nice pix.. just curious, how much did the XRS beat you by? i assumed it'd be about an even match for a manual base rsx
