Another day, Another Civic

So I pulled up to a stop light, and this dude in a '90 Civic pulls up. I thought he might wanna race, but he didn't look at me or anything. Didn't even rev up. So the light turns green, and he takes off. I was like, heck no! I hit the gas, and easily got ahead of him. One thing I must say about those Civic owners, they are persistent. I let off the gas, and he comes up on me again. I had to drive two miles before he quit. Silly Ricer.

Re: Another day, Another Civic

Uhm, let me get this straight. He wasn't even trying to race and you invited him by flooring it. So once you get him to try to race you, you dont race anymore? That makes a lot of sense. No wonder he tagged along for 2 miles???

mid march, i was on the 280 over near South San Francisco...driving about 75mph...then this riced out civic pulls up next to me and just dogs me...and i look at him. i was like WTF?...so i just kinda floored it...then i started hearing his intake, exhaust u name it making noise...i started laughing...dropped down into 3rd gear and pretty soon i was gone...rowing through the gears til about 110 ...him about 10+ car lengths behind me trying to catch up...so i slow down...i start driving next to a early 90's corvette and the civic comes roaring by...and cuts in front of me...so i repeat the same process...as i am doing this...hehehe the corvette owner thinks i am messing with him...and he just guns it...man it was hilarious...me doing 115+ down the freeway...the civic behind me by godknowshowmany car lengths...adn teh corvette ahead of me pulling away...

i guess you can't win 'em all...still...it was one of those rare moments when i go crazy on a deserted 280 freeway around midnight.

boy that civic must've hated me...but damn was he persistent...made me miss my exit to get on the 101. hehehe

Yeah I must admit I get a little ahead of myself some times. There is this 89 Mustang that tears up anything that revs. But I never end up next to him. We pass in opposite directions 10 times a day,ect. Well he happened to be at a car audio shop the other day while I was picking up my sub box, so I got a closer look at his car....There was a blue bottle in the back of the hatch if you know what I mean. I also noticed a roll cage. So me thinking it is rice but wanting to be nice about it ask if it helped stiffin up the frame. His reply? I can't tell I only got it because the Track requires it.... I learned not to mess with him.

no, but you said it looked bone stock, but now that i think of it you may be talking about performance mods... but how can you really tell of any performance mods besides exhaust?

yeah I got you...when I said "bone stock," I meant no visible or extremely audible performance mods...I should have said "sleeper" maybe.
