Default Super Freak-Super Fail!!

Saw this in Abilene over the holiday weekend. I actually chased him through the parking lot of a grocery store with my whole family (in-laws and all) in the car just to get these pics! The guys that got out was a super-fly OG with some used up street ho. The highlights are:

- Home made "high-rise intake" with what appear to be bowls and an upside down plastic tray.
- Home made side pipes that I think were made from toilet paper rolls.
- V12 emblem on the side.
- Aluminum duct tape strip down the side.

EPIC FAIL!!!!

at each of the 4 wheels I was told. . . something about a dual. . . . . no "DUEL-LENCO" posi-traction hydraulic clutch distributor valve transmission!!! With carbon fiber linkages and it was installed upside down (Austrailian style) to reduce friction and actually amplify the HP (hence all 4-wheels)!!!

Whats up with the water in Abeliene? I was there last week and saw 11 yr old white kid dressed like a hardcore OG. Black shirt with Benjamin Franklin gangstered out. Black shoes, black pants, gold chain, and black cap with tilted to the side. And dont if he sprained his ankle or if he working on his gansta lean.

Let's not forget the racing hood pins which are attached to live grenades under the hood in case anyone try's to steal that 700 hp with the upside down transmission. (No one is completely useless. They can always be used as a bad example.)

I think you give people too much credit. If this guy even owned a computer, it would be a Commodore 64 with aluminum duct tape covering the entire outside and stickers on the side that said, "MAINFRAME"!
