Default Why??????

I was driving last night, and I noticed a ricer drive by me (silverish saturn or something with horrible blue flames and a massive wing and chrome painted hubcaps... And a terrible looking exhaust). My girlfriend was behind me, so for the sake of entertainment I sped up to catch him. I opened the cutout and reved really hard. He then cut me off and swerved around a SUV to line up with me at the stoplight. My girlfriend was right behind him, so I figured I would put on a show. I looked over at these guys and they both looked like Ali-G, and they obviously wanted to run.

The light turned green, and I errupted into rubber burning, rice smoking hell... It was the worst *** kicking I have ever seen... by 60mph I had put about 3 busses on him. I continued at the speed limit, and he flew by me at 80mph or so once he finally caught up. He took the next turn and wouldnt let me get next to him again. My girlfriend called me laughing and said how priceless it was. I wasnt even sure if the guy had tried to race but she said he was chirping tires and she could hear his little engine reving.

I had been driving 4-wheelers all day, and then this... and then I went to a strip club with my buddies all night long... WHAT A DAY
