Apologies to John Steinbeck, but he had it all wrong. Of Mice and Men totally fits my kill this evening, rather than a bunny rabbit loving oaf.
In front of the local Ford dealership this evening, I pulled up behind a yellow ZX3 and a Mitsu Lancer OZ Rally. I revved my engine twice to show off for the kids and they both responded, with the ZX3 spinning his wheels up (boy was I ever impressed). They took off and I followed right behind the Lancer. At the next stopsign, I got around the Lancer. The yellow ZX3 showed up beside my door and revved his engine. They took off and I floored it. They didn't have a chance. I blew their doors off and got to the next stop sign. At this point a Buick began turning left in front of me into the lane I was in (across the intersection). The ZX3 pulled up to my door and took off immediately. I followed suit but couldn't pass the Buick. The ZX3 passed me and I got behind him, followed him around the Buick, where he got over, and I overtook him easy. There was a truck in their lane at the next light (cutting off my ability to make a right turn into Wal-Mart where I was headed but that's beside the point). I floored it off the line again and got around the truck and made it into the right hand lane, then turned right at the next light to Wal-Mart where they turned left. I think they will know not to toy with a GTO again.
What I find funny is that the sound of my engine didn't immediately put them off. Makes me wonder if they had any mods. They did have a coffee can exhaust on the thing but I doubt it was for any real purpose. Anywho, that's my first kill, pathetic on their part as it was, but it made me feel good.
