As I was on my home from work tonight, I came to a stop sign on a coincidently straight road followed closely by a VTEC Honda Civic. As I sat at the stop waiting for the cross traffic to go through the intersection I hear the high reving Honda trumpeting through his Fart can behind me. Reving higher and higher as if trying to intise a race. dont know if he is just hard up for a dig or if he just wanted to make himself feel good by attempting to blow off a bone stock Cav.
As the traffic clears he pulls beside me and rolls down his pass. side window and begins the bench racing. He says "wanna run 'em", then I said "It's all stock but if you wanna go, I don't turn down a dig from a Honda boy"
He then said "well your gonna learn what Vtec is all about tonight"
I said "on your launch I'll go"
He launched, and as he took off he spins the tires (only about a time or two around) I pulled out, squeezing on the throttle as to not spin the tires which would induce a quick reduction of power from my traction control system.
his engine revs higher and higher but it seems to be know match for the Ecotec Cav. as I am now looking at his front fender with what looks like some fins off of a maco shark.
As my automatic trani shifts steadily into second gear I begin to see the trademark Honda Boy, body kit front bumper in my drivers side rear view.
I am now aproaching my shift into third and I am close now to a slow but very painful kill.
The Honda boy decides to keep this race alive all the way to 90 M.P.H. and then I notice that we are going to be coming up to a populated area so I back off.
I then witness the all famous Honda fly-by.
Honda Civic w/ VTEC = $9,000
Body kit = $1500
Maco shark fins on the fenders = $500
Fart can/cold air/and strut tower brace = $500
walking his egotistical ass in an absolulely bone stock Cav. = Priceless!!!!
