Default Killed by a civic

At work today I was driving through pontiac in the shop truck which is a 1993 f250 I had a trailer on the back and a golf cart on the trailer . I was sitting at a light on featherstone and suddenly theres a bright yellow civic that had every "pepboys performance" item available, from the fog lights to the wing and 5 inch tip looking at me revving like he was at indy. The light turned green and he was gone with a chirp of the tires. I might have actually tried if the cart had been strapped to the trailer but it wasnt. I should have caught up to him and asked if he wanted to race the golf cart next. Maybe its just me but is beating a truck with a trailer a satisfying kill. Sorry this is long I just was hoping someone could explain what pleaseure some one could get from that

edited to be less confusing

I think your trying to say that you were in an F250 and were killed by a Civic. But I'm not sure about all this cart nonsense.

Your possibly the worst storyteller on the board.

But nice death! Next time, maybe he'll meet up with the Bird.

I think what you are trying to say is you were at a light and a civic took off without letting you know it was going to be a race. Am I right? The humor is that you had a golf cart on a trailer stuck to the back and you were in an F-250 and the moron still launched his hardest against you even though you didn't know you were supposed race. good stuff

I knew it was gonna be a race but I had a golf cart that wasnt strapped to the trailer I can just imagine explaing how I dumped the golf cart off the trailer to my boss. I just couldnt belive that he launched like he was racing a top fueler.

Ah now I see. I wonder what thrill one could possibly get out of picking on someone trailering a golf cart? It's kind like me finding a big rig to pick a race with. Then what would he have done if you had smoked him? He would've really felt dumb then. Good story though.

If you were in an f-body, he would have turned into a parking lot before pulling up next to you at the light. The only difference between that Honda, and the golf cart you were towing, is the pepboy stickers.

"your probably the worst storyteller on the board"
lol thats the funniest thing i've heard today. could u put it back to the way it was before so i can see what it was like?
anyway... if he gets his kicks from beating up on trucks with trailers then you just need to strap that cart down and slap some stickers on it. when you beat him make sure to tell him how much hp the truck got just from the stickers on the golf cart.

At least they're learning that they can't beat basically any car on the road, so they're starting to 'race' the big heavy trucks with the trailers. Hopefully 25PSI will catch on soon too ...
