So I'm on the way home when I see a firebird trying to race me. Apperantly he has air bags in the rear because he is in front of me lowering and raising his car as he tries to speed off. But I catch a lil vid of this awsome one of a kind bird.

housing prices= no cash for fast
stupid people mostly fill the bottom rung jobs and fewer bottom rung jobs in WA. Lots of bottom rung hangers on coming from the so. too.

I originally planned on living in So OC. So cheap S10 based toys since Fbodys cost more, weight more, more gas etc.....Then the wife decides see can't work anymore (medical) and we can't afford So OC in that case.....
Can't stand condo's etc do to parking.

man that is hilarious and sad,,someone must have told him it would help his car grip the road better at high speeds, but left out the part that the car has to be able to do high speeds,,poor firebird.

So I was next to a V6 Firebird very similar to this one late at night just cruising along at about 1/3-1/2 throttle (his was WOT and hitting the speed limiter, because he'd slow down like the PCM cut power, and then he'd speed back up)... So I look over at my buddy and I'm like "I bet you he thinks I'm racing him."

So I go forward and back and pace him until we see some semi trucks way ahead, and let him zoom off into the night after he doesn't slow down for an actual race. Keep driving for the next five minutes, and take my exit. Lo and behold, there's the V6 Firebird with the stupid ricer wing, 17" donks, and exhaust tips that stick out 2' behind the bumper, sitting at the gas station on the corner. I pull up behind him at the pump, my buddy and I get out, I walk up to the drivers window, and see it's some young white kid. I say "hey, what's up? I just wanna talk. No worries, man. I have the silver Firebird." He looks over nervous as **** (like I'm about to mug him) and after a few seconds gets out. After he sees my car he says "OH ****. You're the one that was racing me!"
I look at my buddy and then say to the kid "No dude, I wasn't racing... Look..." and then I pop the hood on my car and show him the LS1.

Then he goes "Oh, damn..." and makes up some excuses as to why it has all the rice... My buddy mentions that the ricer wing is retarded. He says yeah, whatever, and that he's been fixing it since he got it cheap from some dude who messed it up.

Then my buddy sees him a week or two later, parked across the street from his house. Still with the ricer wing, 17" donks, and 2' extended exhaust. Turns out he was going out with the chick that lives there. LOL.
