On my way to work today, I travel a moderately busy main road and don't really encounter anything to mess with... until today. As I was keeping the speed limit (40) and trying to find something good on the radio, I spot a silver Nissan something or other with big letters on the bumper that read www.speedoptions.com with the usual ricer tip and no hubcaps.. Now I just wanted to see what kind of jerkoff is driving this thing, so I gradually make my way up to him and come to a stop behind other cars. He glances over at my car and seems like he isn't too interested in paying me any mind and I don't instigate races by revving anyone.. so I'm back on my way to the job just rollin' along doing about 40mph when I notice he's making his way through the traffic to catch me... So, a little ways down the road it turns into a 3 lane highway and I get an opening and ease into it a little to get to 55. Now, I spot mister pocketrocket coming up in my rear view.. so it was his lucky day, the light turns red and I'm in the right lane and he's in the middle. I look over and he isn't looking at me or revving so I know exactly what he's going to do... like they all do.. the light turns green and I let him make the first move and of course he hits it. So, I lay into it about 1/2 throttle when he's about 1 car ahead and cruise right by him while he's powershifting into second and chirping his little tires. I went past him, switched into his lane because of a slow driver in front of me and back into my lane.. I shut it down around 65mph and of course he does the ricer flyby about 5 seconds later. I guess he forgot speed as the option for his car. It's been a while since I went to work happy.
