MustangWorks.com : Ford Forums - Fun after the wedding

I went to one of my old buddies weddings yesterday, it was a lot of fun except I was 15 minutes late do to a little too much fun Friday night and my phone which is my alarm clock being covered up with blankets so I couldn't hear it. After the wedding and reception my friend Ryan and I were heading back to my car when we found some of the other guests decorating the grooms car. :D One of the kids there was about 16 or so and he asked if he could drive my car. I politley told him I didn't think so. Then he said well burn them off when you leave. I backed out of the spot and almost hit some people because I couldn't see do to two large trucks beside me. They were from the wedding too and they gave me a signal to do a burnout too. I was a little reluctant being in a packed Holiday Inn parking lot, but I figured what the hell. I revved it to 4K and dropped the clutch. Had a nice slow 15 foot burn out with lots of smoke. I got some cheers and thumbs up, it was cool.

On the way home I see a really cool car coming up beside me. It turns out to be a Lotus Esprit S4. I don't know if those had the v-8's or not, but it looked really good. It was black with real nice rims. I kept goosing it to get him to run, but he wouldn't even look at me. The all the sudden when I am stuck behind traffic, he gets a clear lane and took off. I haven't seen a car accelerate like that for a long time. That thing moved, I am sure he would have smokled me, but I would have still liked to race him, he turned off and I didn't get the chance.

Then I get back to Greeley from Ft. Collins where the wedding was and I am stopped at a stoplight and I hear revving behind me. Fart can revving. I take off a little and the car keeps up with me fairly well so I pull into the other lane and we hit a red light next too each other. The car was a mid eighties Rx-7, it doesn't have the turbo hood scoop so I am not too worried. Light turns green and I nail it and instantly get a car and then keep pulling on him until about 50 when I had to shut down becasue of another red light. I could hear his turbo spool up and his blow off valve, he must have put a turbo in, but it still didn't have much power. They turn off at the light and I give the peace sign, all I got was two dirty looks from some punk teenagers. Oh well.
