Ricer picks on me! How dare he!
I'm headed home one night, about 9pm, and as approaching a light I notice these odd colored tailights ahead of me. Immediatley I think to myself "Altezza's.. ", as I appraoch the car, my fears were confirmed. It was a black 3G GS-R, ITR style wing (I say style because I know how tall the ITR wing is, but this thing was equal too or taller than the roof line!!), stock ride heigh on stock 94-95 GS-R rims, "AEM" license plate bracket and a fugly Si knock-off "VTEC" sticker just infront of the rear wheels.
Anywho, light goes green and we're rolling away, a gap opend up between the car ahead of him and next to him, so he guns it and darts through the gap, I have no intention of following grandpa at 25mph, so I follow and evidently Mr. GS-R took it as a threat. He slows to like 20mph forcing me to pass him, I do and after scoping me out, downshifts and pulls a quick one on me.... "oh hell no you didn't"  We both make a right onto a 2 lane stetch or road, he waits for me to pull along side him, I do so holding in 2nd gear and we both jump from there. Slowly but surley I inch further and further away from him till i'm about a car or so ahead by the top of 3rd into 4th so I let off and he of course pulls a fly-by. After about 15 mins of screwing around back and forth we get one last direct shot at each other. At a light, he behind me unfortunatley, light goes green and I move off the line briskly to allow him space to pull up to me. He guns it and swings out from behind me @ WOT, I gun it in 2nd as well...3rd...4th look back and Mr GS-R is now about 2 cars back and slowly falling.. I win Gotta luv dem DrIvIn SkIlZ of his :P lol Cliffs: Ricey GS-R picks on me in the stock Teg, I hand him his Altezza's on a plate.. |

Nice work. Some people don't get it. Altezzas are for looks, not speed.

Of course. Like the idiots who said "You could get one of these tie bars. They look cool." or 3 weeks after I ordered my rear upper strut bar "It was just shipped today from DC Sports...." . That was after the guy told me they had it in their office. "No. These 110w bulbs won't do anything to your wiring. Its not that much power..." Yup.... Idiots.... all of them. I feel sorry for the uneducated people they talk to.

True, that is the one bad thing about a loud BOV. It scares the rice away before you can show em who's boss!!!

Seriously though!!! I mean it's kind of a catch 22, it's good for detering alot of the ghey FnF rice away from me, but at the same time I'll occasionally roll up to an Si or something and wanna have a little fun, but it's like I have to constantly ensure that I either left of the gas really slow, or barley give it any throttle cause once they hear the BOV, they get an attack of morality and don't want to race!! |
