I ran into a mean looking black Camaro this morning. Girlfriend riding shotgun. Made sure to pull out in front of him. He was gonna turn right but I saw him hesitate and turn left and follow me onto the freeway. Heavy traffic but when it opened up a bit and he was right at my rear bumper I shifted down to 4th @ 90 and punched it. I never saw him again lol

I'm convinced my plate was the reason he came after me. I'm running stock tails ATM since I'm reworking my other 2 sets so car looked super sleeper stock from the back (well, minus the PRS tow hook lol)

did not enjoy this war story at all.

It was more of a poem than a story.


on my way home
by lol lame

On my way home,
I see a group of cars by my road.
They were doing dig races,
so I lined up against a modded foxbody and...
I lost due to traction control left on,
and power lost.

So why didn't you roll down your window and say "traction control was on, let's go again." Sure he would've opposed to the idea.
