SRT-4 Oops!


Phantom

Recommended Posts

I was on my way to a prayer meeting with my wife last night when I had a shiny new bright red Dodge SRT-4 pull along side and start doing the "let's race" routine. I was in shock at first. It had been over a year since someone had come alongside and wanted to play. Guess he figured he would have some fun with the old guy and his wife in the old Datsun - Oops. Little did he know that it was the Phantom and his bride in the 280Z28. We were also going about 65 which is a perfect 3rd gear point for the LS1. Downshifted from 6th to 4th, pulled even with him, and then slammed it down to 3rd and nailed it. Pulled a car length almost immediately, ran it out in 3rd gaining another car length, and then slammed 4th and continued the walk long enough to prove the point. Slowed down and let him catch up - he was really cool about it - laughing and in shock about getting wasted by an old man with his wife in the car.

The best part though was the cop stuck in rush hour traffic on the other side of the road that had to watch us blast past at 100+ and couldn't do anything about it! I have got to behave!

Tee hee hee hee...

 

 

Man I still miss all the great Mexi/Cali food from when I lived there! The beaches also kick @ss. 8) Especially Huntington beach, the "surf capital of the world". Got my first zx: a 79gl 5spd with no rust and my first new cd player in Huntington Beach. Both on Beach Blvd!

I really wanted to get a plate that read either "FRD EATR" or "CVC EATR"

 

 

Wife talked me out of it... too cheesy she says. Also would really love to get one of those Calvin peeing decals with him peeing on the Honda H. Saw a guy in a NIIIIIIIICE '70s Toyota Corona with one of these... was the highlight of my day :D

Yeah, but everyone has the "Calvin peeing on _______" decals these days. They need to make a Calvin peeing on Calvin sticker :twisted: Supposedly the guy that draws that cartoon never granted permission for that image to be used, he doesn't get a dime from those things :( I did enjoy seeing a Calvin peeing on Osama Bin Laden decal though :D

It's been like a scene from "The Three Amigo's" this week. Amigo's falling from the sky - except it's been SRT-4s. I just messed with the third one this morning.

I've also revised my route to work in the morning and now it takes me right past a Lincoln Tech facility and I get to mess with all the "mech's to be". :lol:
