Driving to work down the main avenue at 11:45 PM. Speed limit is 35, I'm going 40. I pass a lifted Cummins diesel truck. As soon as my quarter got passed him he floored it next to me and started tapping the gas.

I kept driving trying to ignore him, when naturally a stop light turns red. He starts reving it to launch, light turns, he actually bounces his tires and flys ahead while I accelerate slowly. He then swerves to the right, brakes, then floors it making a big nasty ass billowing cloud of black smoke, engulf my car.

I swerve through it, give him the horn and flash of lights. Then of course we get another light...

Midnight, empty avenue, no cops, I'll school the hick.

I floor it, and left him in the dust. I stopped at 50 because I already had a few cars.

He flys past me to about 70 then slams on his brakes. Luckily my turn arrived..


I ****** hate stupid hicks.

Deisles aren't much of a threat....unless they are turbo. And even more potent if they are chipped in addition to the turbo. Launched right, a pickup truck with that combo will smoke an S2k in the 1/4 mile.

Just because one is in a lifted pickup does not mean they are a hick. You will find idiots in the full range of the automotive spectrum from kids in riced out Hyunday Accents to full out STi/Evo drivers who will want a piece of you. German-car drivers have typically left me alone, but drive obnoxiously. Jap-car drivers bug me more than any other. Korean-car drivers....they are out there, so watch out. American-muscle car drivers would come in a very close second to the Jap-car drivers. Pickup truck drivers I'd put in a category of rare encounters. I've only had one since I've owned an S. British-car drivers, .... the occurrences of seeing a British car driven by a young/dumb kid is so rare, I don't think you'll have to worry about that one. (Mini Coopers Don't count)

Virtually all modern diesel pickups are turbos.
