On a side not, since were kinda on the subject.

When I was young (Still am, but younger then of course), like 16, I use to have to drive across town to my job back then, Food Lion.

I got chased twice while in my old 64 1/2 with the 6cyl. Thats was extremely scary. I didnt know why I was being chased, or by whom. It was late at night. All I did was speed (It took ALONG time for that car to get to any kind of speed) and hope someone would notice my problem. I Drove the whole way to the Food Lion on my side of town (They were open 24 hours then) and Parked right infront of the store and ran into the store. Told the employess what was happening. The van slowed, then took off.

2nd time was somthing similar. I had had enough, I wanted a car that could outrun a 1970 something slant 6 full sized Van. I was chased once from down town in my old stang getting off my job at RPS (Now called Fed Ex) It was real late, and I had a mad load of cash that I needed to deposit.

I noticed someone follwoing me for a while. So I took a few turns, made a few loops through town, and they stayed behind me. Pacing me.

So, to make a long story short. I ended up rip roaring through Down Town Fayetteville Late at night. Pulled a Steve McQueen Bullit thing on a set of ramped rail road tracks. Hauled *** to Wal Mart (Open 24 hours also then) parked illegally and ran inside. The car didnt follow. It turned back around.

I've been followed to the bank before while trying to make my Nightly Deposit while in my 2000 GT, and they TRIED to pursue me. Needless to say, they couldnt keep up. I left them, bad, turned back around to make my deposit, saw them going the other way, I made eye contact. Gave them the Bird, whipped the car around and FOLLOWED THEM. They tried running from me, it was a 80's Cavalier. I drove like a mad man on there tail. After 5 mintues of them trying to outrun me, I calmed down, got my mind working again, and let off.
