Made some guy sad...(me smile :))

I was just coming down a entrance ramp to I-25, there was a merge before the actual high merge point, this Saturn car, looked all fancy, ground effects and stuff, was on the other ramp, I was in 4th, about 1900 rpm so I just was accelerating and going to get in front of him, he down shifts, looks at me, and starts to speed up. Well, I just pushed down the skinny pedal some more and dusted him, he tryed though. Then I exited a couple down, he passes right by and just looked at me, I saw the disappointment in his eyes....

Yeah, i've seen some suprised looks when I smoked a few mustangs in my 04 reg cab 1500 short bed Hemi . I raced my friend's civic one time and got him by at least 12 car links, it embarrassed him.

Can't wait till a couple more weeks when I get to start on the cummins, might go rad, might not, still trying to decide.

Nope, plenty of fun with non-edge 4.6L mustangs, a couple of fox bodies, and one night I hanged almost door to door with a 05-06 up till about 40mph then he pulled away nicely.

I try not to smoke the little guys. Kind of view them as... eh... pets? They look so proud of their little civics and neons, with a spoiler on the trunk and a big 6" muffler that sounds like a tuna can tied to a string, dragged on the road. They remind me of shopping carts with those spoilers looking like handles. I just let them go, they usually just zip around like flies around a cow plop, below the eye level of a respected CTD Ram driver
