TREED!!!! A good story.
Ok guys,
Not a street kill, well kinda is but let me lay the ground work. Tuesday nights here we have a street night at the track(no Prep), as many of you do, that night i did not have the Camaro so i ended up taking the lincoln.
Now this is a 2008 town car, so it is pretty heavy, but sports the V8. All night we watched this new guy tring to teach his son how to race his 99ish mustang gt, he was running mid 10's in the 1/8, so i figured i was gonna get Stomped in front of everyone. ( i worked as the announcer for 9 years there, so a lot of people know me and my Camaro) But tonight i was in the big heavy mini limo.
My wife was ready to go, so i said i am going to run the car once before we go, do you want to ride? ABSOLUTELY she said!! (Wife loves to street race)
So we pull up the the lanes (right side) and the guy (who was running the lanes) said Y'all want to hit the track, I was like HECK YEA! He said do you want to run him (pointing at the Mustang and smiling, i figured he was pairing me up to get raped) I said why the HECK NOT! Let's do this!!!
Now i am in street race mode, we pull on the track and I back up and try to do an burn out (traction control was on) so i one wheel wondered it for and few feet. and then i do a dry hop for good measure.
By now the guy is looking at me with a odd look on his face LOL.
So I decide to Jump the car into the light as if it had a two step Hahahahaha, I hop the front end till i hit the first beams and grabed the brake, the car settled right in the first beams, blinking the second lights for a sec, by now the mustang sees the second bulb flash for a sec and he comes up on the convertor hard, I bump in once more to light the second bulbs.
The tree activates, (as i said i work here for 9 years) as the yellows come down i simultaneously honk my horn 3 times, And Treed the CRAP out of that GT!!!!!!!!!!
I never looked back but I could tell he was coming, watching his lights in my mirror, just not fast enough.
So we not only got the win, we received a BIG Laugh when we got back to the front.
I was going to stop and tell the guy good race, but he was NOT Happy and just nodded as we passed.
oh well, all in all we had fun.
