I was leaving work yesterday, when a new silver cougar caught my eye in the parking lot. I have a friend that owns one, and I know what her license plate says, so I walked around to the back of the cougar to see if it was hers. When I walked to the back, and saw it wasn't hers, I was about to turn away when the owner of the car approached.

Him: Hey, you like my car?
Me: Yeah, they're sharp looking cars. I have a friend who has one and thought that this might have been hers.
Him: Oh. Well they're pretty quick man.
Me: Yeah, I'm sure they've got some pick up to them.
Him: Yeah, I race for money all the time and win.
Me: Oh. At the street races?
Him: Yeah man. So what do you got?
Me: Heh, well I got my trusty civic over there.
Him: Is it tricked out?
Me: Noooo. It's going to be a stock sleeper. lol
Him: Yeah, civics are kinda slow, but hey maybe someday you'll own a cougar man.
Me: Right. Someday I'll own a cougar. (okay, so I said that kinda cocky and sarcastic... you know me... always startin shit)
Him: I got NOS on my cougar, just like they had in fast and furious. And green neon, just like Dom's civics.
Me: Well, don't follow the fast and furious, cuz they got a lot of stuff wrong in there.
Him: This one time (at band camp... no.. j/k lol) I ran these other 2 cars man, and they were winning, but then I NOS'ed them out at the end.
Me: (trying to hold back my laughter.... NOS'ed em out? haha... now NOS is a verb also) Right man, well I gotta go, so cya.

I get to my car, and watch him pull away in his full green neon blaze of glory and those little strobe brake light thingies too. Man, what people won't do or say these days.

I know what you're thinking... is that all you have to tell us?? Oh no.. there's more. Much more.

I'm on my way to a family party later and I'm haulin on the freeway. I see some headlights come up behind me, so I get outta the left lane (even if I am already doing almost 20 over) so they can pass. As the car goes by, I see it's a 6th gen civic. And the dude has neon that flashes as his bass hits. It's all over the damn car. Dash, tachometer, floor, EVERYWHERE. I'm surprised dude can even see, much less drive, considering he's not only blinded by neon, but also sitting in the back seat. (what is with that? every damn punk I see.... chillin in the back seat)

He's got a friend in the car, and he kinda looks over, but it's hard to see him really, because of the tinted windows. Well, that and the fact that I'm blinded like a friggin bird caught in front of a 747's headlights.

He goes by after pausing by my car momentarily, and I laugh as I now see he also has flashy things on his wheels. You know, those damn valve stem flashy things. (my friend got a ticket for doing a burnout in a parking lot once, but the only way the cop found him later was cuz he had those damn flashy things, and that's what the owner saw on his wheels, and told the cops that... hehe... busted)

I also laugh at the fact that every time his bass hits, his tailights dim and then brighten again. It's really pretty funny to watch. I move in behind him, following blinking tail lights the whole way, and eventually he moves over. I get up next to him, and give a little gas. He takes the bait and we go. It's battle of the 16 second cars baby! I slowly pull on him the whole time, and shut down at like 105mph with about 1 car on him. (for those of you wondering, after driving the S2k, it's an eternity waiting for my civic to get to 100... but hey, it did it!)

So that's my first 6th gen kill in my trusty civic.

But I'll be sure to watch out for them cougars.

 

i like flashy things. I guess that makes me a moron. j/k
Good kill in your civic.

 

Seems like every other teenager got those things for christmas here. Last night I was cruising around my town and must have seen at least 6 different cars with them.

Wisc- why is it that you seem to have race stories all the time? Not that I doubt you, but you seem to raise more shit than anyone here

 

I'm guessing by the way the reflection was coming off somewhere near the floor, that he had neon below as well. IN all honesty who knows.

hehe... ask anyone here. I'm the biggest race whore there is. You can even ask those who've met me.

 

Ill vouch for that....he'll race anything that moves faster than a granny with a walker.....the feeling of power is great...especially in the s2k. Hey, can you blame him??...i cant!

 

The only one worth reading sometimes, I'm just jealous there aren't that many people that take the bait out here.

 

Id say he would race her too!!!

 

dood wis, your stories get better every week. Youve become quite good at descriptive writing that involves riced out vehicles.
