Pablo meets the LX...

Ty'97Cobra · 11-27-2002, 10:37 PM

Coming home from work tonite, I took a different route...
I luck out and get pole position, left lane. Anyway a pickup pull next to me and turns right. No biggie..... But what does appear next.... Pablo and his ricer. This is a real ricer.. a lowered civic (methinks) with a HUGE wing, racing wheels, under carriage body styling, fart pipe of course, and stickers galore....
SO anyho, I look over as he pulls alongside....
HE revs.....
I smile and give a nod....as the light is still red....
Now mind you he has two people in the car with him. He says something to the passenger and looks forward...
I check the light and tack it to 1200-1500 (Im in the LX tonite)
The light turns green and we are off.. I get minimal wheelspin and hit second with a bark. He falls behind miserably..... So I let off at 50, in a 35 and he is at least 3 cars behind...

He pulls up and starts the flyby, but alas, another yellow, then red light. He hits the brakes and starts gliding to do a roll on the green....
I pace him , but for some reason, he doesnt speed up to catch the light????

I hang it in second.... the light goes green and we are both off... luckly i was at 2000 rpm and the end for him came quickly at 50... he was again 2-3 behind... i tapped the brakes and slowed down to 45-40 and can you guess... yep good guess...

But needless to say, he proceeds to show me how cool of a driver he is by weaving in and out of traffic doing at least 60 in a 35.. :rooleyes: What a dork...

Happy Thanksgiving

I would guess that the driver of the Civic was a Latino...

That's why I hung back. I figured after two kills off of the light, he knew whats up.... I'm not much into playing the "in and out of traffic game".. Leave that to the autocross people....

Dam, I guess I'm old...
