So I'm driving down the main road in my town. Sun just went down and it's a little bit dark. There's a few common places where cops like to hide on that road. I drive by one of the places and sure enough there is a cop there. I drive by and he pulls out. I didn't see him actually pull out but my radar detector is still going nuts so I know he has to be behind me a few cars back.

I stop at a red light. There's a teenage hispanic kid in a riced out crappy integra. It has the giant tach on the dash, the whole deal. We're at the light and I look over at him and he's looking at me. I can tell he wants to race at the light. So I give the gas a rap and pretend like I'm going to take off when it turns green. Light turns green and this kid HAMMERS the gas, it sounds like his fart can was going to explode. Sure enough the cop comes racing out from behind me and pulls the kid over!!! To add insult to injury I laugh and point my finger at him as he gets pulled over.

Silly ricers

I escaped number 10!!!

 

I've done that before.

 

How come nothing cool like that ever happens to me...

GREAT story I would have been laughing so hard it'd be hard to drive

 

On a different note, Dustin, bring back your avitar with the chubby kid eating soup....I love that one!

 

hahaha. I love when that happens. I had a guy in a Trans Am do the same thing to me at a red light. We were across from an elementary school and the kids were out on recess. I saw a cop at a side street I had just passed. This guy is revving his engine, light turns green and he peels away. Cop flies up and pulls the tool over. I saw his car getting towed on my way back from picking up some lunch.

 

Smart driver always wins...good storys!

 

thats awesome....

never seen it happen, but hope i can set a ricer up for failure some time soon!

 

me too

nice going dustin

 

I've always wanted to do something like that.

 

It's easy to screw up ricers. By definition they're not the brightest bulbs in the world.

Thing I love to do best, is nothing at all. Nothing gets them stirred up more than when they can't get you to race. Just keep cruise'n and they'll dance all around trying to goad you into goin' at it, but you don't, and you can just feel the warm fuzzy hate radiating from their ridable-RC.

 

I don't know where that one is, I might have lost it!

 

Great story Dustin. The only time I have been challenged was by a kid in a riced out Scion XB. Too funny. I laughed at him and his fart can exhaust, which prompted the single finger salute from him.

 

i got one for you, local pd was in mc'ds drive thru gettin some food....theres a bank, then a 4-way then a burger king all in a row, well i was waiting at the light and i had seen the cop just barly through the mc'ds windows, i was tryin to decide what i wanted to eat..well some punk pulled up next to me and revs so hard i could swear he left some vtec on the ground with the oil it was leaking lol anyways light turns green(id decided burger king and turned right down the 4 way) he took off like a bat outta hell...i watch him get a ticket while i was eating...best BK ive ever had..

 

That's awesome!

 

Ya' gotta love it!

 

So you egged the kid on, pretended like you were going to race knowing there is a cop by...light turns green and you let the kid take off and he gets pulled over... Dirt Bag!!!

 

When I first moved to Michigan, I didn't realize the highway patrol were in blue SUV's, so I was being tailgated at 63mph by one thinking it was just another redneck, so I downshifted into 3rd, and left him standing still. Then I saw the lights go on, way back, and I pulled over. I explained that I thought he was an A hole tailgaiter, and he belived me since he admitted he was too close for me to see his top lights. He said the first thing he thought when I hit it was "I'll never catch this guy" since my 12lbs and 475rwhp shot away faster than anything he'd ever seen. He asked a whole bunch of questions about the car and let me go. I couldn't believe it. !00% true, Erik

 

I do think its funny, but I'd be careful doing that kinda crap. Thats exactly the sort of stuff that gets your car keyed (or one that looks alot like it) if they even "think" they see it again somewhere around. I know I wouldnt want it to be mine.

That's great! I love hearing about ricers getting what they deserve.

 

Sonciboost, it's likely the ricer was gonna do it anyway, and get caught anyway. It's just 10 times funnier this way.
