Today during work,I was on the way to a customers house to check her modem.I had some ricer pull behind me and tailgate me for about 5 miles.We got to a red light,and when the light turned green we went thru the intersection. After the intersection,the ricer whipped his car into the other lane and stepped on the gas.At this point I have accelerated to around thirty mph.The good thing is this is where the power kicks in for my van.I stayed in front of this kid for the next 1/2 mile or so until my turn started to come up.I lifted and started to press the brakes,and this kid went flying by me beating on his steering wheel. I was quite surprised really,but enjoyed it none the less.Stupid ricers want to try and blow away a work van,but where are they when I am cruising my Sport Wagon.
Silly ricer, toy cars are for kids! Good kill! I had the same thing happen in my 97 Ford conversion van. I have the trailer tow package with 3.55 gears, the 5.4 and the van comes on strong from a rolling start especially when you are going slow enough so it kicks down to first. Some fool was driving like a goof and when I went to pass on the right he gasses on it and then so do I. Well, I actually slide past him but bail because we are now going too fast for the street we are on and I slow to the limit. He keeps going and I never see him again. How embarrasing it will be when they have to tell everyone they were beat by a big ole van. Cause you know they will also tell their friends the race stories they lose. LOL Mikey
i did something similiar to a bmw 325 that was tailgating me out in the country (how convenient it was on the kids 1/4 mile street strip). Came right up on me, maybe 10 ft back at 55mph, so i sped up to 70, there he still was, so i just punched it, he kept up with me for about 2 seconds, then away i went. When he pulled up next to me at the stop light (a ways down the street) i saw he had a friend in the car (trying to show off). well, he wanted another loss, so i gladly gave it to him :Brow:
