				 |  Ford vs Ford Well as I was leaving school today I noticed that there was actually, a nice car in the parking lot.  It was (i'm not sure what year) a Probe GTS, silver with 2 black stripes, chrome rims, and GTS in big black letters on the doors.  Granted this was a really sharp looking car, I wondered who drove it.  Anyways, I left school and headed home, which is only about 6 mins away.  Well, after about 3 mins in the car, the kid in the probe cuts me off into the turn lane. So i take it calm and say, "whatever, there were a ton of cars that were getting stuck in the traffic."  SO it's all good until, what's this, this kid is crazy.  He cut me off by about 6 inches after cutting into my lane.  So i'm really flamed now, so i just do a drive by, honk my horn and flip-um the bird.  So maybe this kid get's the wrong message?  He honks at me and speeds up, obviously thinking I want to race him.  So what the hell, I go for it.  We both started side by side at about 60mph.  I just stuck it in forth and thought nothing else about it as i started to pull away.  Well as to my amazment after I got my rear bumper to his front he starts pulling on me, pretty good too.  Now, I have raced alot of other probes with and w/o mods and haven't really ever had trouble.  Although, I don't think I've ever heard of the GTS's, only the GT Turbo's.  But I think those were the earlier models that were the GT-T's.  So I figure, eh I'll just dig deep into 3rd gear.  Well I drop it in and take off.  Now here's the odd thing, when I hit about 4800 my car seems to be cutting out. Hmm..time to shift into 4th, and I just about ripped him another ***$hole.  Well that was fun for the time being.  So I head off to work to pick up my paycheck all proud and everything.  I get heading to the bank, and jeesh, it feels like my car is acting up, and doesn't wanna freaking go anywhere.  Oh look...now I'm coasting down a hill because I have no freaking gas left.  Yeah, I should've realized I was on fumes when My car seemed to be surging.   ---| I'm a freaking Dumba$$ |--

				 |   Good Kill.  I hate "Butt Probes".  There are too many of them around here and they can't hang.  My Girlfriend's Aunt owns a '94.  I drove once and it "feels" fast, but you'll get pulled by a 5.0 Mustang or LT1 Camaro from a stoplight. |
