So i went to go up to my old school to pick up a friend, sitting at the light all by my lonesome when a minivan pulls up beside me. As i look over i see HID's in my rear view and wait for the fella to pull up to the light. I nose out in front of the minivan to see what kind of car it was, Honda Prelude (newer style). I give the guy the "hi nod" and the ligh turns green. I slowly accelerte and my turbo begins to spool, (magnified by the fact i was under an underpass after the light) and the guy in the prelude gets on it. I said to hell with this honda and floored it, chirped going into 2nd and i look over and this guy is 5-6 cars back. So much for the great h22. He then pulls on me after i hit my brakes and upshift, in 3rd gear @ 40 i floor it again, start pulling away again. The guy couldn't face me at the light, turned early.
So last night, going to a local track here (street cars race on wed.) I hop on the interstate. Not 20 mins earlier I told the guy riding with me what happened the night before. I merge onto the traffic heavy interstate and see yet again, another car with HID's. I go slow, wait for this guy to catch up. Guess who, Prelude from the night before. This time he had a chick in the passenger seat. I look over, nod, my buddy said he shook is head like he was ashamed. Eventually we go into the tunnel and he gets beside me, I hear him downshift and get on it. I look at my friend, give this guy a second to dwell on him starting to pull on me, then throw it into 2nd gear and say good-bye.
Just another Honda taken a notch down.
