Default GT? Ricer?

Im not even going to waste this thread by telling my kill stories of the local rice. GT's however are slightly better (and considered american muscle, which i find humorous in a little tiny non blown 4.6L), so i shall tell of a certain GT thrashing.

It seems that every stoplight i come to on a 3 lane i end up lined up with an non SC 4.6 with boltons. They always rev, i always laugh and shake my head. One particular time i told the driver, "ill give you 3 cars.." So he starts laughin back. Light changes and i take off so slow that a senior citizen to my right passes me on take off. Once i saw him get a few cars ahead i nailed it. Needless to say a couple gear shifts later (4.10 gears) ive went on by him, but to rub it in for revvin at me with his mouse motor i wave as im passing him. Next stop light he wont even look at me. The end. GT

Another kill was when a HS punk challenged me, i of course denied because he wasnt driving anything special (93 cobra). Well he just kept talkin and talkin til finally i said "bring that 15 second car on." Some people followed us and we went on the infamous 3rd honk from around 20. Amazingly he stayed with me from 20-40 or so...then it was see you later. So when he finally catches back up to me at the next light he says, "Thats a 13 second car.." i simply replied, "I never said it wasnt, matter of fact i said it was a low 13 car." We get back to where all his buddies are hanging out and they ask who won and he had the nerve to tell them he almost won, im pretty sure if your so far behind that i cant make out what kind of car it is by the headlights id say you got raped. To make a long story short he cried and said all he had was this, this, and that, when in reality his friends told me what he really had in it Typical ricer loss. The end.
