First honda kill

Post by magicmike »

Well I was driving home from the taco bell a few weeks ago on Rt6 and came up to a light. There were not many cars on the road as it was Sunday night around 11 pm. I pulled up to the light and I see some blue lights coming up quick behind me and then cut over and stop at the light beside me. It was a late 80's early 90's 2 door honda accord. This guy looks over at me and I glance and dont do anything. Now let me just tell you that his seat was so far back he litterally looked at me through the quater glass from the back seat. So he starts reving his engine very very stupidly. It sounded like I was going to be picking connecting rods out of my teeth. He was just holding the gas at redline until the light turned green. So, as he was revving like a fool I just put my left foot on the brake and gave the car 1/10th throttle to spool up the turbo. so light turns green, he spinns his tires and I wait.....he takes off and gets about half a car ahaid of me, I dump the gas pedal and let go of the brake and launch. I just catapulted past him and was doing about 60 and 4 or 5 car lenths ahaid of him in a short time. I slow down and he of course does the ricer flyby. Just thougt I'd share

Especially as you can watch those things rot, the suspensions can't take potholes (at least not the roads around here), and they have no torque. I've had those junkers impressed by the 'power' of the 8:1 N/A.

Midnight in a Perfect World on Amazon or order anywhere. The first book in a quartet chronicling the rise of a man from angry criminal to philanthropist. Midnight... is a distopic noirish novel featuring 'Duchess', a modified 1990 Subaru Legacy wagon.

It sometimes seems like the majority of idiots drive hondas. Good kill.
