Humbled 2 ROAD RAGERS
THIS JUST HAPPENED:
After a CRAZY night of partying, I woke up this morning feeling like I had been stranded on a desert for 3 days. So I took an Advil and I'm off to go buy some hot soup. Of course it doesn't matter how bad I feel, driving the Lightning always makes me feel better.
On my way back home, I've got a styrofoam container of soup resting on the passenger seat, so I take it slow making a right turn, with one hand keeping the soup container still. Here comes this Mitsubitchy Montero right up to my tailgate, and to really be a jerk he honks at me. I'm still taking it easy and keep driving with this guy tailgating me big time, then he cuts into the open lane next to me and we're staged at the light. Does this fool know what he's getting into? He's staring at me like he's gonna leave me in the dust!! I decide to rev up my engine right until the tires spin a little, just to give him a warning. He gives me this "yeah whatever" type laugh, probably to hide his insecurity. The light turns green, I give him a head start, touch the gas and have him by several car lengths without even going to full throttle. He's staying behind with the rest of traffic now
Now speeding up behind me is a Mustang GT!! We line up next to each other at the next red light, I look over at the GT and it's some kid in a tank top, sunglasses and backwards cap. I give him the thumbs up and then point forward, he just stares at me with this pissed off look on his face, and I'm wondering is he mad at me or what? Then I realize he was probably behind me when I was revving up my engine against the Montero, and took it personal! Light turns green and I beat him so bad in first gear he gives up before I even get to 60mph! All this while making sure my soup is secure. We get to the next light and he won't even look at me anymore. I'm trying not to laugh cuz Mr. Bad *** is now Mr. Sad ***.
It always seems the challenges happen when you don't expect them.

Brimstone
I thought that's the way all Californian's looked, "pissed off look on his face". Thought it was in the food or something? Nice soup recovery move. Better Kill's, and with breakfast.

Way to go Brimstone - that's what I call dedication.
