How fast are you? My boys' Mustang GT did 220..
Leaning against my car watching the dollars rack up on my $2.71/gal, 91 octane liquid fun as it poured into my car, my pocket began to vibrate and the muffled yet oh so familiar "Ring ring ring ring ring, BANANA PHONE!" creeped out of my front left pocket.
"Oh hey Steve.. Yea I'm on my way, there better be more girls there this time.... Ok.. Ill call you when Im close" Click.
Putting my phone back into my pocket, I glanced over the back of my factory spoiler to notice 3 young men, no more then 15-16 pushing their goped into the gas station I was about to depart. I thought nothing of it, just out having some fun, stopping to grab some more gas before heading home I suppose. But the workings of how 3 people could effectively cover any sort of distance together with one goped eluded me.
Thunk! $31.46. Boooo.. This heavy foot of mine is starting to take its toll.
"Ey y0! I wanna race this guy"
I glanced around, not knowing what was going on, to see the group of guy looking at my car with a cocky demeaner on their face.
"Uhh.. Sure." I assumed he was talking about his goped, so I casually played along.
"Eh, you ever race for money mang?"
'Cant say I have'
"Thats a shame, my boy has something that would eat you up"
'Thats cool....'
"How fast have you gone in that thing?"
'Not very, Im not a high speed run kind of person.'
"Oh, well you should, that **** is tight yo."
'Its AWD... Top end isnt that great...'
"Nah, you just gotta know how to drive it"
My douche bag alert has been going off from the first sentence out of his mouth, but I find these people quite amusing, so I continued to sound interested.
"So, you wanna run or not?"
'And what exactly does your "boy" have?'
"2002 Mustang GT y0! What do you have done under the hood mang?"
'Stock right now.. Just pulled the intake silencer, thats about it'
"Aww, never mind then mang, my boy would eat you alive."
'Neato... I guess'
"Yea, my boy does all that top end ****, he got that **** up to 220mph on the I-15 mang."
'220 eh? Thats pretty fast.'
"Yea, he has all this **** done to it mang, its pretty badass."
'I'd like to see that, sounds pretty mean. Most super cars cant get up to that, he must have some serious stuff under the hood.'
"Yea mang, he got the governator removed."
'Uhh.. what?'
"The governator mang, he used to top out at like 170, now its 220."
'Wow, I havent heard of those, Ill have to check them out soon.'
"Yea, they are badass mang, maybe Ill see you around when you get that **** installed. I dont think itd be to fair for ya right now mang."
'Yea.. maybe...'
I finished screwing in the gas cap, and tried to keep from laughing. He had run to catch up to his other friends who had left him during our little convo, no doubt to talk about his recent schooling on me.
Pulled out of tha gas station, turned towards the 3 yokels bitching over who gets to ride the goped next and slid it into 2nd. Slowing building boost till I reached 3500 rpm just as I passed them, I left off and gave them a little BOV loving. Funny how something that cant speak, can say so much more then somebody who can.

Rep Power: 0 The 02 WRX 5MT have no speed limiter, but are drag limited to 150ish in stock form from ive read. Ive barely even taken it up to 100 yet, as its a new car and I dont even know the full characteristics of its handling at low speeds.
My SL65 rim, because a rim is all I can afford

I think you mean 220 Kilometers/per hour, son. J/K "Leaning against my car watching the dollars rack up on my $2.71/gal, 91 octane liquid fun as it poured into my car," <- Love that line...
