Default Ricer Blue Light Special

OK here is the set up:

7:30 PM it is dark (no I am not wearing sunglasses) I am at a light on HWY 7, there is an Acura something or another next to me. He revvs his little fart can powered engine up to the rev limiter a few times while we wait for the green.

Green light... screech.... varooommmmmm goes the ricer. It is not the time or place to be racing this is too busy of a HWY.

Speed limit is 40 and I am doing such, about 1/2 a mile ahead it goes up to 50. He gets in front of me and slows to about 25... almost to the 50 zone so I change lanes and punch it.... 2 seconds later I am at 50 and he sees Camaro taillights. He punches it just as I get up to his doors but he does not stand a chance... oh yea I am driving Sarah. I get to 50 and let off. He flys by me prolly at 60 or 70, I am not sure it took him like 5 seconds to catch up to me. I just cruise along at the speed limit and what do you know... yup there was a WASP officer waiting on the side of the road for a moron like him. Blue lights flash... Ricer gets a green piece of paper for X-mas.

Gotta love ricers who dont know when to race and those who think they can take cars like ours. Sarah is only a 3.8L, she moves good and so far not a single ricer has been able to take me. I have been spanked by a BMW 325i, I dont mind that so much his car has the same # of holes in the engine and about 75 more ponies. Guys like this makes me laugh. IT was a good day.

I've only had it happen once, and it was on the Bickleton HWY. Only thing is there wasn't a cop around to issue citations.

I hate the ricers who try to mess with people like that. Got what he deserved. I remember I was coming home and there was a green z28 that I was next to (I was in the right lane doing about 60) and I see him drop back a little bit to check the rear of my car. I guess he saw the dual z28 tips and screamed pass me. The funny thing was that as soon as he passed me I heard him grind 3rd and I passed him. I just laughed and went about my ride home. On a side note I got walked by a bmw x6 suv. Stupid thing has like 480 horse packed into that thing

Lol all I thought was big clunky bmw suv. Then I heard the turbos spool and my jaw dropped when he rocketed past me. It was quite scary how fast that suv motivated
