Default Got killed by VTEC Eclipse

Was driving down a two lane road and hit a red light. Next to me was an Eclipse. To make it short it was totally riced out with VTEC badges lol. It was just me and him, he wouldn't look at me naturally. The light turned green, I slowly pull away but keep it in 1st until 5k just so he would hear my LT's with orp and open Borla when I shifted with my tail at his open window. Just incase he had any thoughts. The speed limit is 50mph and he appearantly doesn't want any. UNTIL we start approaching traffic ahead of course. Then, he does the usual ricer act of flooring it and weaving in and out of traffic. My car probably handles better than his, but I'm not stupid. Well, the next light comes up, he is in front of me with 3 cars between us, the light turns red and just after he blows through it and I stop for it. HE WON YEAH!!!!! I would bet a months pay that he told his buddies he beat an LS1. This is a daily occurance. When I see these nerds, in my mind I keep thinking "why", but that will never be answered.

Glad you stopped. I hate people that do that. I wish I was an unmarked car driving cop sometimes. The **** I see on the road ALWAYS when a donut dunker is nowhere to be found.

How's the military treating you? You back from the beach?

Lol he probably did think that. It's depressing to me that there are really people out there with that mentality.

Right brand or not it doesnt matter to them. They feel japanese letters and vtec stickers automatically makes anything fast and auto zone just wants their 15 bucks.

It's a known fact that VTEC stickers add 20 RWHP, especially when your car doesn't even have the part. What were you thinking?!

Sure right on that one... It would be funny if his car was something like a GSX, or even GS-T, and he swapped out his decent turbo 4-banger for a Honda SOHC v-tec... but, I dont know if anyone can really be THAT stupid...

Anyway, congrats on stopping at the light and not playing around with the stupid *** boy...

Here is a message to all the ricers that I know are reading this thread, especially the ones in Fayetteville, N.C.: If you will not race a muscle car heads up (side by side, no traffic), yet think you are hot shi* when you weave in and out of traffic to "race", and think you win because you get to the redlight first, you are a PUSS*. And I'll say it to your face, as I have many times in the past. You are a bunch of dorks and you annoy me and give real racers a bad name. As a matter of fact, this same message goes out to all the Mustang guys who do the same thing, which is about 90% of the stangs I come across.

Nice death. At least you are smart enough not to blast through an intersection.

Catch his VTEC/Eclipse driving *** another time and show him what the deal is.

Heck, I didn't even try to follow him at all. I never race with other cars in sight. That's one of the rules that, if broken, show you are an amateur.
