Raced a seventh gen...

Well as I was at a stop waiting to get onto the freeway, I see a 02 champagne colored civic coupe. From a distance his tail lights looked like something I hadn't seen before, so I sped up to catch him. They were just the matrix chrome altezzas, but from a distance looked different. Everything about this guy's ride was nice except for his altezzas. He had an oem kit, and what looked like 17" enkeis. I think he thought I was trying to show off to him or something, so when we got to a stop light (don't ask why this particular freeway had a stoplight) he revved, so I said okay I'll play a little. Needless to say he got spanked. I dunno why. I pulled on him a little bit in first, but once I hit second, I was gone. The only thing I can think of is maybe he had a LX auto? I dunno...

The next stoplight, he flashed his brights like he wanted more, so again, I handed him his ***. I had fun, but he looked pretty pissed. Oh well life goes on...
