Default Mazda Proteghey Owned

Just a little post to the idiot Proteghey driver (black, base model, with a fart can exhaust and APC Altezza's) who cut me off on the freeway on my way home for lunch today. It's 80+ degrees out, traffic is heavy (it is the Bay Area after all) and I'm enjoying life in the '04 S2000 with the top down.

1) Simply because you pull up next to me on the freeway and pace me for 4 or 5 miles doesn't mean we are going to race.

2) Simply reving your car up a few times while pacing me on the freeway is NOT going to make me suddenly want to race you.

3) Speeding up, cutting me off, and then flashing your hazards does not mean we just had a race.

4) Getting pulled over by the CHP officer who was two cars behind me and watched the whole thing proves you're an Idiot.

That is all.

Protege's are about the ugliest pieces of tin ever. If youre a guy, you shouldnt be buying one of those, unless you plan to drive it off a brdige.

LOL.

I got 'beat' by a fart canned protege near my house one morning. He spun his front tires for a good bit and then just took off. Of course, I had just pulled out of my street and my car was completely cold. Oh yeah, and I was in the left turn only lane while he went straight. On some mazadaspeed forum though, I'm sure there was a post about my S getting 0wnzored.
