Default eg hatch

This lil ****er surprised me! So I'm on my way home on the streets and black eg hatch is pacing me. After about 30 secs of him pacing he just jumps on it...I'm thinking he's not worth my gas. After that thought I'm like, why not? I get next to him and throw it into 2nd and kinda blip the throttle a lil, he looks over and smiles. The next light he's lined up behind me; when it turns green I get over in the next lane, stay in first, wait for him to line up next to me, and I waited till he took off, At this time in about 5k in first, kinda too high but I'm like whatever. He jumps out and I follow suit, I stopped his pull pretty quickly and by the end of 2nd I'm already half a body length ahead. I get to the end of third and shut it down. But he wasn't too far behind me. He wanted to go again but I knew the end result would be the same. Plus I'm really hungry lol. I know, It's like me picking on a 6th grader, but it was still a little exciting... Cool Kid, probably just outta high school, Damn that makes feel old, and I'm only 23 lol hahaha

I don't consider that picking on anyone. Some on them yea, but definitely not all of them. I love running the Hondas that have done their homework. They usually won't line up next to you if they're full of it, instead they'll do a flyby, etc. Good run, Crash.

I'll post ... bringing up your viewing count and post as well. Im not trying to thread jack you or anything but I had this dumb HS kid (i assume he was) in a honda do the fly-by pass me on the highway last night and then hits the brake and falls back right next to me. I'm in the right lane doing about 55, 60 and he's in the left lane next to me speeding up/down popping it back in forth 2nd - 3rd. This goes on for about a minute and im thinking he's not worth my time imo so I lift up on the gas. I presume he thought I was downshifting or lining up and he drops right away and does a classic "fly-by". I'm like hmmm this oughta be good because he cuts off someone as he's changing lanes, almost causing that car to run into the back of him. As he changes lanes, he hits the off ramp and has to drive onto the shoulder because he almost back-end someone. A grin and chuckle as I drive pass the ramp down the highway. Im not sure what kind of Honda it was because it was dark but it had a little zip.

I could care less about my post count lol, back to you're hi-jack jk, I hate it when **** like that happens. I was on my way home from the valley and some dumb *** in a z28 rolling on 22's is tailing my ***. There was hella traffictoo, if there wasn't any I would've raced him. After, he gives up trying to race him, he weaves in n out of traffic almost hitting 6 cars in the process. I mean ****, if you're gonna street race, at least make sure no one is around, or few for that matter.

I still every now & then mess around w/ ricers and punks asking for it from traffic light to traffic light. But I will never race people on the highway. Couple years back an S4 audi was asking for it while i was minding me own business & i gave him his wish. I shoulda knew that it wasn't going to be a clean race from the get go as it gave itself a head start. Well, traffic was light but it wasn't clear in a long shot and we go off heading in, around, and through traffic. Dumb, because it wasn't too safe regaurdless of the traffic amount because one of us could have blown a tire or lost control of our car as we're flying pass cars. Also it was dumb because i let my ego get the best of me and as i kept going. I should have let it go, because everytime his ran out of room he'd w/o warning dart right in front of me or behind me. Cuz me to hit my brakes. This isn't the way it should be. So, we were for the most part rpart neck and neck with one another which allowed him to do the darting. Then before I shut it off and said screw it i got stuck in traffic and im about 1 length or so behind the guy in front of me and I don't why but the S4 decides to pulled a dick of a move as he put his car between the closing gap of me and the car im coming upon. WOW! In that instant I was pissed, scared, and pretty sure i ate a part of my steering wheel all at once. It was bad man. hahaha, im darn lucking, prob used up half of my brake pad right there lol. I was kinda shocked because if you wanna go lets go but dont everytime you run oughta run cut off the guy your racing or jusr be a d bag squeeze into a spot you shouldn't be in. Though I take responsibilty for my part by giving him the nod. But learning lesson never-the-less. I just wish people would respect nice cars and leave others be. I just wanna get to and from my destination not deal with your bs & ego. I don't you about you guys but I ALWAYS only have issues with people driving nissans, toyota, and honda, and once in a while an A4 or charger. Those darn import cars and people who have V6 sports cars think there packing 500+ in their car. Idk if its the car or just the breed of people that drive those cars.
