Raced a roadster on the highway.

I was coming home last night with the cruise set on 75 MPH. I passed a roadster that looked like this:

The major visual difference was his was red with a different flame pattern, the rear tires weren't as wide, and it had a top that was up. I don't know about the motor, it was dark and all I really noticed was it was a V8 by the sound, and it had side pipes.

I cruised a bit down the road, and didn't think anything about him. Then I see some headlights coming up on me, and it was the roadster. He kept revving. When he finally punched it, and I follwed suit. I pulled atleast a few cars on him by the time the car shifted into into 4th. I figured that was enough, tagged the brakes, and reset the cruise.



He caught up and wanted to go again, but at this point the wife wasn't pleased, and I just had to ignore him...

No, no no, Kris. You missed my joke....lol

Depending on how old readers of the thread are they might not catch it.
Lillian was the wife of Herman Munster that drove that car back in the tv sitcom 'The Munsters"

Tell me if you think it looks like the one or not...lol


Later

Mike

Nice Kill,
I got a 1923 ford t-bucket sort of like the one pictured above with 18 inch wide rear tires, the hell if id be trying to race someone at 75+ t-buckets are extremly light and get pretty jumpy at those speeds, crazy driver.
