Me vs the pontiac set-me-on-fire (sunfire)

On my way back from a work meeting today, I had the pleasure of a sunfire riding me up the *** like a 12 year old at a michael jackson party. (those jokes will never get old I suppose. haha) I could hear a distinct buzzing, indicating he either had an exhaust or he had trapped some bees in a tin can and used them for an intake. (ram-bee intake. woot!) It turned out to be an exhaust, but here in wisconsin, the latter of the two wouldn't have surprised me at all.

I was doing 60 in a 45 and apparently this wasn't fast enough. I finally cleared traffic, and moved over to let him pass. He flies by and then slows down, almost forcing me to pace him near his blind spot. He eventually downshifts, moves over in front of me, and throws on the flashers..... W T F mate.

I can already see what this winner's "kill" list must be like. I now see his tail lights are some weird form of euro lite, but they look homemade. Upon closer inspection, I see the caulk around the inside of the light lenses, and some silver spray painted rings around the lights. I'm thinking this must be some kind of DIY job. Interesting. He also has a "dualie" exhaust that doesn't look made for his car. In fact, I'm wondering if that wasn't a DIY also since the exhaust pipe comes out at almost a 40 degree angle I'd say from the bottom left side of the car. What's next... flames from the tail pipe?

I follow behind him for a while, and manage to wiggle my way next to him at a stop light. Alright slappy, let's get a little run in here. I give a quick rev, and he buzzes back. Light turns, I start to go, and he just kinda sits there and slowly rolls out. I quickly stop racing, once again thinking WTF mate. (f**king kangaroos) Yet this genius suddenly speeds up, gets ahead of me a bit and for a 2nd time almost forces me to pace him in his blind spot. Seeing this behavior before, I downshift immediately to 2nd (we are going 40mph now) and get ready for it. Sure enough he tries to take off. I floor it, traction control and all, and manage to fly by him hard enough that he might have pissed his pants.

Well maybe not really **** his pants... but it would have been funny.

Sunfires... sheesh... they're a POS.

Bees in a tin-can.. LOL... it wouldn't surprise me, unless he was making the noise himself by spitting and splattering saliva all over his interior.

haha the quote you are looking for is....


When you compare a mustang and an S2000, and someone says "well the mustang has more torque". My answer is "When my S2000 whups your GT in the 1/4 mile, do you think anyone cares that it has more torque? what are you expecting... a cookie from the torque fairy?"

These ricers and their hazards... sheesh. I used them once, but I didn't mean to say "haha, I beat you", but rather, "i'm done--there's traffic up ahead".

Good kill.

Oh, and I must admit-- I got scared for you when I heard of those DIY euros. Those things add like 15 whp, especially if they're home made.
