Friday night after clearing out of the shop, heading for the house, I got stopped at a light next to the typical teenage ricer. Big wing, ground effects, 18" fart can. As we are sitting at the light, he begins racing the engine and generally making a fool of himself. I kind of laughed to myself and decide to return the favor. I am in my dually with a full length set of 2 1/2" dual exhaust. Needless to say, I got his attention. Light turns green and we both nail it. He got me off the line by almost a car length, although I had a substantial amount of wheel hop. We run 'em up to almost 70 before I decide to quit it. I am 37 for crying out loud. How would that look to the judge. Anyway, I never caught the kid, but he never pulled anymore than the initial car length, about 6 feet I think, although I saw his shift light glowing most of the race. He was giving it all he had. Oh, I almost forgot to mention. I had the 23' dovetail trailer with an '89 Jeep Cherokee loaded up. Not to mention the truck bed filled with engine hoist, stand, a rear hatch for a Chrysler minivan and a host of other crap. Bring it on again, fart Boy! I'll own you!!:laugh:
damn thats funny reminds me of the time i was with my freind in his 3/4 ton 73' chevy pick up. well this is how it went i live in riverside california and theres mors rice burners than ********* out here along with the typical s-trends and minitrucks on bags anyway we just left the parking lot to georges (which is a bitchin place to get burgers cause they are good as hell) and were going down the streets next thing i know i look to thwe side of us in the lane 2nd to uis cause its a 3 lane road anyway i see this riced out 91 or so civic hatch revving at us i start to laugh cause seriously this car looked ridiculous anyway he starts holding down the gas getting ready to dump it at the green well green hits and my freind stomps the loud pedal and we leave the ricer badly hes just sitting there burning out not hardly movingby the nxt light all we see is his headlights and like a lil girl he turns off at the next light he didnt even try to catch up.:spank:
While towing??? After hitting 45 he was probably just trying to get away - scared that such a rig could keep up.
