Cuda kills a couple more!!
« on: February 02, 2009 - 10:02:33 PM »
Took the Cuda out for a cruise up to the local Sonic burger joint being a beautiful 60 degree Sunday. On the way there I pull up to a light and wouldnt you know there sits a new(er) C6 vette right next to me. It appeared to be a middle aged couple out cruising around. Well the light turns green and I play it cool at first as not to look like a jack ass and pace the Vette as we pull away. About 60 feet out the Vette punches it and that was it. I laid it to the wood and pulled him like he had put it into reverse!!! The next light they give a friendly wave and turn off. On my way home I get on the interstate and as I'm in the fast lane passing traffic I have a Porsche Boxster pull up behind me and starts riding my bumper. I speed up a little and he stays right there and I can see a **** eating grin on his face. Already going 80 I flatten the gas pedal in high gear and put about a 1/2 mile gap between us!! As I exit the highway he pulls along side me all grins and gives a thumbs up. What an eventfull outing!! :2thumbs:

Actually the State Highway Patrol is doing a crackdown of people tailgating this week!! Dont know what the ticket cost but it is not cheap!! If I was in my other car I would have brake checked him for sure!

I drive a 1990 Volvo wagon so it wouldn't hurt my feelings too bad. I'm sure he has good insurance! :naughty: But seriously it would have to be pretty severe for me to do that. Usally I turn on my rear fog lamps (volvos have that built into the tail lamp) and that gets them off my ass.
