Strange race Going north on I75, I see a little grey car with ground effects and a 300 lb driver merging on the highway. I couldn't tell what it was at first, all those shitty silver 4 door jap crap cars look the same with ground effects.
I keep cruising and see he's coming up to me at a pretty good rate of speed, he's going to over take me. I shift to 4th and inch up a little to bit for him to get side by side at about 65, then when he passes me I go WOT to third, pass the car in front of me, and we're off. I let off at 95 or so and see he's only 4-5 cars behind me. I'm thinking WTF and get back to the center lane. He gets next to me, and I jump ahead in 3rd from about 65 but he doesn't bite.
Then, I look at his car a bit and behind his huge aftermarket bumper I see a big friggin intercooler peaking out. So I drop back to cruising speed he passes me, and I read the back of his car:
Mazda Protoge
After the race, the guy looked PISSED. He wouldn't give a thumbs up or even look over.
Typical ricer.
I thought he had a pretty cool car. Also, it was weird seeing some rather large redneck looking guy with long hair driving this particular car.
Oh well, good times.

I have no idea WHAT it was. All I know is it has a big ole intercooler and he stayed way too close.
sfj, I'm only running mid 12's right now so that means its time for more mods. After christmas its on
I have e-check coming next month so I can finally install my ORY, and I have a short list of already purchased mods going in at the same time.
