Default Dumb Ricer :)

Was on my way to the ATM to get some spending $$$ and this Rico Suave in a Ricer Civic revs his little turd-box at me as I'm getting into my car. We incidentally end up traveling in the same direction, and, like a moron, he pulls his little "vroom-vroom" number at the next stoplight. I ask him what's he's running? He says some alphanumeric engine code jargon like b18c something(I'm thinking Acura engine). I tell him he can have a car length to the next light(early Sunday morning, no traffic what-so-ever, and I know, street racing is a no-no, but this was just a block or so).
He takes off first, on my 1-2 shift I'm at his door, and at the top of second I'm by him and into third(briefly, as the next stoplight is approaching fast) I have about three-four cars. We stop, he's like, "I beat a new Mustang the other day"(I'm thinking a stock V-6 automatic). Then his dumb-a$$ sees the GT badge on my fender and cries out, "Oh, you have a V-8, you should be faster than me". We only got up to 75mph or so(well, I did) and he was actually cool after becoming a breakfast food for my GT on a Sunday morning. "There's asuckerborn every minute todrivearound in a Civic, waiting to become a victim", or so P.T. Barnum would say if alive today[8D].

Good one.

I've had several similar deals.

I removed my GT fender emblems. The last encounter asked me (after I lifted at the top of 2nd gear - what's the point?) if I had a V6. I said to him, "Does it run like a V6?"

Game over.

You shouldn't have even rolled your window down after the beating, maybe to say. 2 Liters is a soft drink not a engine size.

Just to clear something up. A ricer (imo) is a car with all looks and no go. Me and some of my buddy's have taken down our fair share of v8's in our dsm's.(1990-1999 Eclipse,Talon,Laser) Sure they are 2 liter 4 bangers, but when tuned right, they can straight up move!
Note: I know I'llprollyget a lot of crap from posting this, but I have to defend my 91 Eclipse GSX!!
