Wink stomped a bumble bee...

Well, I was driving to work the other morning on 172, got behind a car (it was running 50-55), but i was in no hurry so i didnt pass. This older honda catches up to us, 1st straight away, he goes out and passes, buzz, buzzzzz. I think, "just for fun", i pull out and catch up w/ him before he even finishes passing. he apparently thought he could just drop a gear and outrun me... he gave up on this idea after hitting 90ish, and slowed back down to 60-65... fine w/ me ... well, we get to the end of the road (from 172 -> 72 near Athens if you know where that is). he floors it... I floor it, catch up and pass him before hitting 45, got on up to 65-70, and stop... he comes buzz'n by me (no ricer fly by!, just normal), won't even look @ me.. haha... takes a left 1/8 mile up the road... oh well.. my morn'n drive.

I guess all he had was the "extra annoying" exhaust? b/c i passed him about as fast as pulling out to pass someone...

... and to think, i had my camera! don't know why I didnt video it, i figured he would take off when we hit Hwy 72!

oh yah, they never expect a truck, yours got the 4.0?

played w/ a bright blue honda civic too... it looked like it had brand new paint on it, but there were white spots here and there... dunno what was up w/ that, i was behind him @ the red light, he stomped it, I stomped, pulled over and passed 'em, was great! then, got the same reaction as above, refused to look @ me, then turned off haha.

the white spots are extra horse power

should have took a picture of it, i mean the "blue" looked like fresh paint, white "spots" were "exact" shapes, one on the passenger door, from top to bottom, other was on the rear quarter panel, from edge of trunk down to wheel well, but didnt look like a stripe on purpose, either way... still out ran it

also, had been following the car for a while, would pull out to pass someone, it was STOMP, puff of smoke, gain 3-4mph... i stayed in 5th the whole time following him and of course, road his tail while going around 2 exits I followed him on... he wouldnt take them over 40ish... haha.
oh well

and if anyone knows Athens,GA - followed him from the mall down 10 loop, up 29 past the state patrol office.
