Silly little honda...

Seems like all my posts are goin in road tales.. Anyway,

so i'm ridin around today, went over to Opelika where the gas is cheaper.

well it's a four lane road over there and back.. i filled up the cougar and was on the way back when i pulled up to a redlight beside this very rice-ish honda CRX... the turn signal lights up and i eased forward a little early.. then realized oh yeah, turn signal.. DUH!

apparently the Honda thought i wanted to race.. starts revving like some kinda bad-a.. i look over and he has his girl in the car.. so playing along i pull down my sunglasses and wink at her, then look at him and cut a cheesy little grin.. he smiles.. nods.. and looks at the light.

I look back and remember about 75 yards past the intersection the road goes back to 2 lanes goin into town.. whatever,ill be past him..

light turns, he barks a tire and takes off.. i ease on the throttle til he gets about two lengths ahead then hammer it! didn't even get outta first and was back even with him.. he looks over as i hit second and i started toying with him.. then waved and pointed ahead... still trying his hardest, he gives a dumbfuzzled look and glances forward to see the ass end of the truck bout 50 feet away that had pulled out into his lane.. I hear an "OH ****!" and screechin tires as he tries to stop but just wasn't quick enough... nailed the 2500 Chevy in front of him doin prolly bout 35..

i felt bad but couldn't help but chuckle as i drove past... guess i should've stopped but yeah.. that'd take the fun out of it!

funny thing was, at the very next light.. I got revved at again... by, of course... another honda..

Re: Silly little honda...

I woulda seen if his girl was alright. But thats what he gets for street racing. You should consider yourself lucky. Dumb, but lucky. Keep it on the track.

But nice kill BTW.

Well, IMO it's not Hondas as much as it is the people drive them. Civic Si's are the bomb.

Re: Silly little honda...

sounds like you werent speeding though. Only second gear on a 4 lane road sounds like a 35 or 45 MPH zone.

Re: Silly little honda...

I'm suprized you didn't get smoked by the CRX. All the CRX's I see around are highly modded. What mods do you have?
