Default Got killed by a Honda. True story,

So I decided to do some freeway testing with my scan tool and new 4.10s. I pulled onto the freeway keeping my left eye on the laptop and my right eye on the road in front of me. It was a 75% pull up the on ramp. I lazily pull to my rightful place in the left most lane of the two lane freeway. I dance my eyes between the laptop and the road. Letting my speed drop to a good freeway cruising speed.

Then out of nowhere, I hear the sound of a thousand angry bees. Before I can truly understand the sound of a tortured exhaust note of a 1.6L vtec. His smurf blue headlights stinging my eyes. A ricer, with an aluminum shopping cart handle of a wing set to maximum down force to let me know he is serious, blasts past me. He achieves a distance of a three car lengths (or to make it sound more impressive; 10 motorcycle lengths) in front of me. I didnt even know we were racing. He hits his hazard, I know defeat when I see it. I got rice burned.

Ummm, no. It was just a regular civic, you know the type. Unpainted body kit, clear tales, and some stickers. Powered by type-r.....

You know the type R stickers add anywhere from 10-50 hp right?

yeah I had one try to do that shiot to my friend when we picked up his new SS silverado from the dealer for some regular maintenance. damn ricer pulled on the interstate about 4 car lengths ahead of my buddy. he didnt see me. but he pulled in front of my buddy and turned on the hazards. then my buddy pulled up even with him and they punched it. my buddy took him with no problem. so I stayed back letting him have his first race with a ricer. then he pulled next to him and started flipping my bud the bird then I got a call to bring up the rear so I did was about 20 or 25 car lenths back I said aight and halled butt to get on the ricers tail. so one minute he is flipping off my buddy and the next he has a 500hp T/A at his passenger side window. I rolled down my window and then gave him a rev and he took off. I beat him so bad I didnt even see him in my rear view. my buddy pulled up the rear and then he tried to do a ricer flyby but I dumped it into 3rd and as soon as he came to my rear bumper i took off and played with him then rolled down my window flipped him off and me and my buddy followed him to a gathering of ricers at holly hills parking lot in winder, Georgia. we went into the bar while the other ricers gauked and wished they could take me or my buddy. I hate when people think adding a rear wing on a FWD car will help them or a body kit. and the clear lights give them like 200 hp alone. hahahahaha. Ricers are about as dumb as a brick. no doubt in my mind you would have wasted him.
