Damn!

 

I don't think it's had anything to do with nitrous. I think he just plain missed a shift. I've almost done that before....pulling hard onto a highway...the onramp sweeps down and right, and I've at the top of fourth....just the momentum forced to to shift to second by accident, luckily the clutch only got half out for about half a second. I woulda easily been pushing 10 to 12k.

 

if he wasnt jackin off in the first place he would have made his shift.... did you see that fool........

 

and to think....he still has a smile on his face....either his daddy has some deep pockets....or he hasn't a clue the true cost of that nasty boo boo

 

Nah, he knows his ****. Look down through his posts. He's knows what he's talking about.

 

Looks like someone needs a AUTOMATIC

 

or go back to drivers ed and learn how to shift

 

haha, yeah I did that down a friends street. He lives on a dead end, and we were meetin up to play b-ball outside last summer. I just gunned it down the street in first 9prolly hit 25....tops), and an old guy about 3 houses down comes running out....THIS AINT A DRAG STRIP BOY! I thought it was quite hilarious. We still quote him when I'm speeding around.

As for the kid not knowing....I think he did, but at that point...all you can do it laugh about it. It's done, and you know how deep into it you are. Just gotta bite the bullet.

 

considering he took it apart himself he certainly isn't a novice to mechanics...and he certainly KNOWS what he did and its serious. Just don't know that I could find that much humor in the situation so soon after it happened. It would propably take a bit of bench raceing and some story tellin to get to that point.

 

iv seen that happen before

 

Why would he be mad? He can just go down to the local pep boys and buy a whole new ******* B18C on clearance for $29.99. F'in hondas. (I DO like hondas, and all types of cars, but I wish I could find some **** for my car, too...)
