So I'm going over to Nicks (H22A hatchback) to watch them fire it up for the first time after getting the timing belt retensioned. Heading North on University Blvd, I hit Orchard. A Silver Ferrari 550 Maranello (5.5L V12, 480bhp, 419lb/ft torque, 3726lbs) turns onto University. I'm in the right lane, and he's in the left, we eventually get ahead of traffic.
Ahead of traffic, he downshifts and so do I, I start to move on him around 70-80mph, then just as I'm about to pass, this jackass decides he's not going to let me pass him, so he drives down the dotted lane divider kicking up all kinds of gravel :mad:
I think he was too ashamed to lose to a Honda......

funny how those "high dollar" guys hate to lose, I will never forget the day I ran a young guy with two females in his new 911 (temp tags in the window) handed him his ass on a platter.......he drove down the center median just to pass me when we got to traffic ;gay;

Things that this old guy can do that I still can't:
Go faster on the top end
Out-handle me
have a much better-looking car
win a car show
claim that his car would beat mine if they were both stock
Get more ladies (as much as I don't like to admit)
Get more ladies (contrary to some belief, ladies don't smooze over Hondas)
Nate, you still could take me in some situations. Remember, I ran a 13.9 on street tires.

hey, was it silver?
i remember some little punk kid who's parents just got him one said he'd work everything. I was driving the h22 that night and told him I'd race him. Him and his friends fucking laughed and said it wasn't worth their time, then said they wanted to race the audi tt that was up there.
I umm, pointed out the the tt gets beat daily by the h22, then all of the sudden they wouldn't even race for money and said they had to go.
Found the kid about a week later driving down belleview and tore his ass up.
fucking punks
