Re: Anyone ever race the "rice boy" gangs?
I actually did the other day. I noticed a POS looking black Civic CRX with the tell tale loud exhaust and the largest most gawdy ugly *** wing in the back. You know, the one that is yellow complimenting the all black car.... Yep that is the one. This is also the car that used to look nice but due to the drivers lack for a care in the world, it has many dents and dings.
So I think to myself, what does this punk-*** have under the hood. I also think, given it looks like a punkin-chunkin, does it have the stamina to rev up.
Here is the scene. I'm headed back home North on RT 14 towards Volo and hit the intersection of RT14/RT120 where I turn to the east (towards Grayslake). If you know this intersection, the road sortly comes a stoplight in short manner.
We both pull up to the stoplight and I throw a glance over at his car in the most serriouls of faces trying everything I have not to laugh. In fact, I actually start to giggle and I think he saw it. Uh Oh. He smiles too and the light turns green.
I juice the throttle, zoom through 1st and what do i hear... "BBBbbbbBBBBbbbbBBBBZZZZZZZZZZ!" This is the sound of the most obnoxious exhaust system I have ever heard in my entire life. Both of us are neck and neck through first gear. Due to the noise rattling my brain, I think that I am 1/2 length ahead of him.
Both of us hit 2nd gear and yet again, the ineffective sounding exhaust starts to wail.
Here is where it starts to get good. The stoplight that is right after the first one is about to change to Yellow then to Red. So, I continue to mash the throttle down to the floor. I am now about 4 lengths ahead of Black with big-ole-yellow fin CRX. I can hear that he is just starting to hit 3rd gear and then it happens. I see this big black cloud of black smoke coming out of the pipe, the racket stops and he pulls over.
I make it through the light and he is busted on the side of the road. I hope with a toasted engine.

I vaguely remember getting harassed...
by a car gang while riding in your car once... do you remember that... some hodgepodge group of cars one Audi even I think. They stopped in the middle of the road and tried to road block us... wow that was a while ago...
