Encountered a pure honda ricer.

On my way to the grocery this morning, i noticed a Civic hatch EK following me getting closer and closer, tit was a road full of stop and go, i could hear him WOT his car every stop and go...

Then hes right behind me at a light ready to turn on a Boulevard, i slowly get on the Boulevard and look in my mirror then he floor it and did a nice 1-2 gear flybye.

I hit half boost in 2nd, just for fun, not wanting to race him, since there was some traffic and it was not a place to do a race...

Then at the next light i get next to him, as soon as i just look at him, he start telling me:
(i will try to translate...forgive my english...)

'' You and your cobalt are not up to task! , i will blow you away no problem, im gonna beat the crap out of your cobalt so easy, just like that (snapping his finger in same time)''

I was like huh?!? at first i just wanted to tell him his car looked nice , it was like a spoon civic, and wanted to know what engine he had, it sounded like a B serie.

Then i was telling him ''just follow me to the highway...'' and he just cut me and say
'' EVEN on highway i will crush your cobalt like there was nothing''

Thats how his car looked but in white:





I was trying to remain polite since it was just a kid and he just had no idea of what he was talking about...

I just asked him what engine he had, he said ''a good engine...'' i said yeah, but wich one? again he replied ''a good engine...''

Then light was green, we were rolling, then he downshift in 2nd gear in the vteeecc, theres a slight chirp at like 45mph. Im like ... wow

About 500m later he had to slow down so i catched up, still driving normaly, then i just drop it in 2nd and do a gear pull from 35mph, no traction all the way into 2nd gear while hes just next to me...
just wanted to show him what he was going against...

Then at the next light im next to him, first in line, i look at him... no sound... not a look..
I said ''What? i cant hear you anymore now? you have nothing to say anymore?? lol
so... what engine you have? B16? B18? LS/vtec? (he probably though i had a cobalt and i didnt know what a honda is...)i said doesnt matter because none of them would be able to beat the ''poor'' cobalt. (i know his was not even close...)

The look on his face was priceless lol


Then he asked to race from there, i told him for one i would have no traction on that part of the road, and 2 theres a lot of bumps, bad for driveline because my car have torque, and 3 its really not the place to race a car...

He said i dont care we race right here, i just remained silent and he started reving his engine to cut-off for like 20 seconds..... at an intersection full of pedestrian. When light turned green i launched normaly and he went WOT...

I wished a cop could see him but no unfortunatly...

Yeah i see a lot of them here too, if they are cool i dont have a problem, if they like their car and throw a lot of money to make it look like a batmobile, unfortunatly a lot of them act like the kid i seen this morning.


Spiro, He was from South shore of Montreal


at first i was just curious to see what setup he had, just to talk to him, its fun to talk cars sometimes on the fly, too bad he wanted to go that way, oh well at least it was fun to see the look on his face after i did the 2nd gear pull lol

I should have asked him to run for money

It sounds like that kid lived in a box this big (make with hands). You should of tossed him a tissue pack before the race, what a complete tool. The way you make that guy sound is like an Asian Western movie or something lol!
