Sweetest Mark VIII moment yet....

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Today on the way home from "work", some *sswipe in a NEW jet-black Sebring sport coupe decided my bumper looked like flypaper and glued himself to it.

I was in a mood anyway, listening to Kid Rock and thinking about women... so I "graciously" pulled over and waited for his pea-brain to react, and indeed he finally grew enough hair to actually pull around me, even though I'd pulled onto the shoulder.

(btw, I pulled this shot off a site called "women with wheels")

Just as his back bumper passed my front I nailed it, and saw him flinch as trac control was off and the tires howled for a sec... before they bit.... and he pegged the gas totally as a black puff came out of his pipes....

Now remember, he had about a 15 - 20 MPH head start....

No contest..... I had to ease off the accelerator to keep from shoving him down the road. He was accelerating as hard as he could and my 12 year old Lincoln wasn't even breathing hard.

OH he'll enjoy writing this month's payment check for that $25000 turtle.

Or better yet.... I was driving down this road, I look in my rear view and see a black 97 LSC flyin up in the lane next to me... When his front bumper gets to my rear, i nailed it and suprisingly kept up with him, im sure he was going at least 50, while I was going about 35-40(optimal kickdown speed)... It was some young kid..

My fav. moment was when some Ricers and a Mustang were doing little burn outs in a parking lot. When I passed through and slowed down they gave me such a dirty look - so I just nailed it and smoked them out. Their jaws just dropped. Best part is a cop was coming around the corner and there was so much smoke he couldnt tell who did it so he pulled over the Mustang and one of the Supras - I guess even the cop didnt think a Mark could pull that off. Damn I love that stink.

My first real drive with my 93. I had a D-head in an Intrepid tailing me tight until we reached the dashed yellow lines. I let him pass me. As he passed and pulled in I just stayed with him. He tried to pull away I just casually stayed with him. Then the next set of dashed yellow lines I punched and blew buy!

You may look fast but you're not driving a fast car!!! Damn Intrepid. LOL....

back in the day when I drove a 71 mustang, I just had a ruff weekend moving in to a new place.
So Me and stepson are driving and this a-hole in a porsche 911flys in to my lane , I had to slam on my breaks and swerve out of the way . THis set me off. I followed him onto the freeway. I took the out side lane, dropped it in 2nd had keep right next to him. he then hammerd the breaks so did I, again punched it . this guy was trapped (god I love the old 302's) .... then I guess he was making a try to pull on me and he mis-shifted and pulled over .
I took the next exit back the other way , in time to see him locking his car with somke coming from under the rear deck . I felt bad for about 2 sec.
