Sometimes the world is just perfect... ;)

Driving home a bit late from work last night. Traffic was winding down. I was down the street from my house when I caught a glimpse of one of Garland's finest all set up in his speed trap. No biggie, I was just over the speed limit and was a couple minutes from the house.

Get home and notice there is no wife and a message on the machine. She's out with her mom and dinner is up to me. Can someone say SONIC!?

Get right back in the car and haul out to sonic for a burger and tater tots. 10 minutes later, I've got my food and heading home.

Sitting at a light at a major intersection and I hear a buzzing, ricey sound, and low and behold, the absolute worst Civic I,ve ever seen pulls up next to me in the right hand lane. I've GOT to describe this...

It's lowered so far that this idiot's got HUGE gouges and scrapes all over the bottom of his yellow Pokemon body kit. (Notice that the color of the car is RED) Lots of yellow "Powered by Honda", GReddy and NOS stickers that start from the front fender all the way to the trunk. To top it off, this guy's got two badly installed vynil yellow racing stripes that are starting to separate from the body and hood.

Inside are the 2 typical ricer rejects you're used to seeing. Aged 16-22. White "wigger" wanna-bes with reversed visors on their heads listening to some rap that was so loud it was shaking MY car... I guess they didn't notice that their visors were getting crushed by the seat's headrest...

Of course, I get the crazy Honda revving response the instant the driver saw the Yellowjacket. To be honest, I wasn't even going to pay attention until I remembered something:
The cop's speed trap was just about 500 ft from the light!

Now to make the decision. If I revved back and made-believe that I wanted to race, and if the cop was still there, it would literally be the funniest thing I'd ever seen. If he had already left, these 2 morons would be all over the net posting how they "owned" a blown GT....

Well, My foot made the decision for me, as I brought out my never used acting skills and revved her hard. Making the car jump forward a bit.... From then on, I knew they were gonna go...

Light goes green we both nail it and I instantly pull out over a car. I shifted into second and let off the gas as I let the Civic go past. I can hear he's got that 4 banger floored as I get in the right lane and start to pull into the gas station a bit before the cop's last position.

Please be there... PLEASE be there...

I saw the Civic fly by the trap and I didn't hear anything. I was just about to let out a curse and then I heard the sound of a crown vic at high rpms, a siren, and lights fly out of the side buildings... YES!!

I slowly pull back out into the street and cruise up the road until... what do you know? Someone's pulled over... by Johnny Law...

I made sure to wave as I passed by...

Folks, it just doesn't get any better...
