Default Surprise backhand!

This happened last night, and I probably shouldn't have done it, but I did it anyways only because of who was driving it. Let me explain - there is a guy who burned one of my friends on some car parts (SBC 383 stroker kit), and he drives this POS honda with a home made paintjob, a bench on it, and a fart can. Pretty much everything Fast and Fail you can think of.. anyways..

I roll up to the light in my Formula (about 11:35 at night, and nobody is at the light except us two which is incredibly rare for a friday) just going out to take my girlfriend out to Steak and Shake. Not starting any trouble, but then I notice it's his stupid ***, but I ignore him anyways until he gives me a nice hefty rev at the light. He has no clue who I am because he's never seen this car before and my windows are tinted and all that, but I've talked to him a handful of times. Needless to say, I am anxiously awaiting the hilarity. Light turned green, I start rolling away slowly, and he takes off like a twelve year old on a 3-speed bicycle peddling like the police are after E.T. I give him about 4 car lengths on me before I decide to stomp it a little (didn't floor it, but about 75%) and pass him by buslengths like he's sitting still. At that point we were going from 40 - whatever I reached at this point..

So of course after that, he does the gay **** of tailgating me down the entry ramp, ATTEMPTING to tailgate me on the interstate (which doesn't work, obviously) and follows me for a good.. six miles or so on and off the interstate. Then he broke off and parted for whatever reason. I tried to lure him over to our hangout at QuickTrip so I could get the guy up there he stole crap from, but he parted just a hair too late. Was kind of bummed about that, but whatever.

SUMMARY:
- Stupid *** thinks I have a 6-cylinder firebird because it's a Formula and has no wing or high-rise hood mounted on it yet (but I do have them both). I guess he didn't see the FORMULA on the side of the car because it's in primer. Car has only a catback so it doesn't get nasty loud until I get on it.
- I give him all the time in the world thinking he's beating me, then destroy him and **** him off.
- I've been meaning to find him for awhile because he thinks his rice is fast as I've talked to him before and that's one more off the checklist of ricers I know to shut their mouth up.
- I'm sure he went home and told everyone he beat a LS1 Formula


Just a disclaimer - *Not all imports/euro are rice, and I don't pick on people that are out of my league but this guy's an ******* and runs his mouth. Felt nice to know I gave him a good surprise. Assuming things is such a waste. I hate that guy.

Please don't put the T/A spoiler on without the T/A bumper. I like all the retards that think cause their car is loud means it's fast.

Formula ftw....I'd rather have a nice, clean Formula than a TA. They look great. I almost bought one with a 408 in it. It was black with red lettering on the body and black wheels...pure sex.

But on topic, douchebags are everywhere. People don't know what a fast car is until they've been in one.

Naw, I've never gotten a warning or ticket in my years of driving. Besides, it wasn't even really a race haha. Racing implies some form of competiton

Hell, if he stole **** from one of my good buddies I'd have been following him. Not like he can loose you or anything. I'd atleast try to follow him to a hang out or something so I could tell my buddy where he was at. That, or I'd just get his license plate info and get his address from one of my cop friends.

I know where this guy lives, but there's no way I'd try anything by myself. I just wanted to help Duke (the other guy) get his stuff back in a reasonable fashion if at all possible, but this guy was slammed for grand theft auto so I was never around him without at least one person I know real well.

He just happened to be the person driving. Duke has his hands dirty as well which is why I won't do anything, but I still think this guy is in the wrong on this particular instance.
