hey guees what happen today!
I was on the calder highway, miles of space in front of me, I knew some real bad pot holes were coming up in a few ks.
I looked to my right and saw a bmw just sitting there about a car lengths behind. I am doing about 105ks and figured yeah I'll speed up a little and
move over since this guy is behind and doing the same 105ks.
Soon as i speed up to 110ks the bmw driver go agro and speeds up heaps, so I think oooh look at this clown, So I speed up to 115km and I laugh he goes
up to I recon 125 or 130 just so he can be in front. lol
then I see there was a mazda happy gay faced car thinks he can copy and show that he is tough too, I just laughed at them and they saw it and were
mad.
trollolol'd good as! what a douche bag/s. good way to get them
out of the way with their own doing imho.
then latter that drive. I am waiting at the traffic lights at Keillor drive on ramp, I am somewhat 4 cars behind in the left lane there are heaps of
cars in the right lane too.
Getting around the corner from just after the lights, I accelerate and the left rear tire lefts go ( got my crappy spare on atm) and pulls off the
silent spin of death.
the revs go from 1500 to 5k in an instant with ~ 20% throttle and the whole car does the rev bounce, gets me by surprise but nothing in the every day
drive I don't experience.
Well here I am got my mind focused on the slipping of the spare tyre, the guy next to me in him pimped out VN ? maybe VR wagon thinks I am racing him
and hes gone mad trying to floor it with 4 or 5 cars only a bonnets length in front of him just like my lane.
dude! I am not trying to race you lol.
Another thing on the way home.
the classic slowly overtake someone and it hurts their ego and they fly out and overtake you again at blazing speeds something about people not liking
being overtaken by a ratty old bomb?
haha can't wait to do an ecotc conversion! 0-100 in 5.6sec stock engine can't wait to see the yupies faces when they deal with me. I wont stop at stock though.
Old crap cars that are abnormally fast is fun in more ways than one

Ever since My Fasty became a daily commuter I get dirty looks from people all the time, because God forbid you are allowed to safely travel the speed
limit in this country, also whenever a gust of wind knocks the old Fasty around other drivers think I'm hammered
