I was on my way to work this morning, and I heard a low buzzing from behind me. Looking in my rearview, i expected either a swarm of killer bees, or a large bag of sh*t someone dressed up to look like a car. This being wisconsin, of course it was the latter of the two.

The culprit? A purple grand am. And I don't mean like a cool purple, i'm talkin that ugly barney purple. f**k that dinosaur. and his purple grand am. anyways...

So I'm in the left lane, and I'm passing a car in the right lane. He gets on my ***, because apparently the already 10 over I'm going isn't enough, and he has to get where he's going before the government realizes he stole one of their navy aircraft wings and put it on the back of his car.

Eventually I'm far enough over that he can move over and fly by me, roaring exhaust and all. (seriously... do some people ever even fricking listen to what their damn exhaust sounds like??!!)

But the next light changes, and as we come to it, he downshifts for some reason (enging braking... do people actually do this in cars?? wow.......) and it sends his rpms to god knows what, making his engine sound like it's going to explode. However, this sound is only drowned out by his "bag of goats being beaten with an oar" sounding exhaust.

I line up with him at the light, he's revving, and I slowly star to inch forward. The race is irrelevant, considering an S2000 can rape a grand am like michael jackson a 10 year old boy, but it was the fact that he actually drove his car like he would win. After the race, and he caught up, he drove by, revealing his final mods.... Ebay altezzas and a kerry/edwards bumper sticker.

O_O I thought you left the site

But yeah, one o my biggest concerns about having a nice import (Supra, NSX, RX-7) is having dipshits like this constantly trying to race you.

i love your stories man so awesome.. are you a writer? most awesome quote - "However, this sound is only drowned out by his "bag of goats being beaten with an oar" sounding exhaust."

I picture the car dragging a bag of goats with a huge oar smacking the bag as it rolls on.. lol

I saw a friend of mine a week or so ago when i was driving around, he has a 96 Mustang GT, so obviously... could I feel any slower, so we take off not racing just driving and we're like pacing each other then he just takes off on my ***.. just to make me feel slow....

we got up to about 35, the limit, then he blasts up to like 45ish while i manage to hit 38 by the time he's goin 45ish.. and even tho a mustang isnt fast overall, when ur in my car w/ 100lbs of subs in the trunk, in a civic, and a mustang gt takes off on you, damn.. but I dont really care much about performance obviously otherwise I'd ditch the subs, but I still dont like the feeling of, damn im one of the slowest cars on the road.. but once I have a career job and some $ to spend I'll get another car, something thats atleast quick.. EVO or STi sounds nice. but thats a long ways off..

but dont get me wrong im keeping the civic until it dies, I'd just love to have multiple cars..

little off topic, but i actually saw a s2k get beat on my lunch. i was sitting coming up a yellow light to make a left, and slowing down, and i hear a s2k revving, and right beside it is was looks to be some kind of older fox body. they keep revving as the turning lane goes, the s2k kind of chirping it tires, and the fox body lets out some smokey stuff by its wheel, i'm pretty sure he was purging or something. regardless, they go and the s2k races off and the fox body just sits there, even though the other cars or passing it. not sure what happened. i turn left, meet and am behind the fbody at the next light, they take off and the fox body smashes the s2k, it got a head in second it seems, maybe by a car length and then it started accelerating crazy quick (i assume this is the nitrous he was readying). soo, at the next light they start talking all this ****, there are two guys in each car. The guys in the s2k get out of their car, and the f-body guy opens his door and slams it into the open passenger door of the s2k (i about broke a tear), the passenger of the s2k jumps towards the front of the car, a little afraid it seems and this big fella gets out of the s2k. right when he steps out i notice his left huge boot is by a pot hole, within a second or so he manages to lose his balance to the pot hole, tumble towards the s2k and smacks his face on the top of the s2ks body where the door meets hood. he goes down, while his friend is getting out of the car and the guys in the s2k hop in and cut out, almost running over the guy that fell. i wish i had a video, or atleast i should start carrying a digital camera. happy i went out for lunch today to see that.

lol that's one hell of a story. fox bodies, with some mods, can be made much faster than their normal 15 second stock-ness.
