On my way home from work today there was a "dude" cutting through traffic in his Acura TL. Car looked nice and had a sporty sounding exhaust, but the way the guy was driving it was kind of ticking off the crotchety old man in me.
We ended up side-by-side at a light and he sat there revving
his engine. I, of course, took it as a challenge, so I staged up. Foot on the
brake and throttle down just enough to sit on the stall of the converter. Light
turned green and my 4000 pound Mercury Grand Marquis put a couple of car
lengths on him. I backed off at 60 and he passed me.
That was when the F250 beater that had been behind me
whipped over and passed me too. He rolled up next to the Acura and they took
off. This was where I got to really laughing because that shit box diesel F250
gapped that Acura like it was sitting still...twice. Amazing what a well tuned
diesel will do.
Have a great weekend.
