    Default Some Tool in a Ford Tempo

    Okay so I'm on my way home tonight and I get caught at some lights at DouglasDale. A car pulls up, its kinda loud, its a Baby Blue Tempo with SuperStreet, APC, and some other sticker on the front drivers quarter panel. Neon Blue Licence plate frame, Large E36M3 Touring Style Unpainted Black Spoiler, Custom Crappy Tire APC exhaust and to seal his fate, Chrome hubcaps.

    He revs, I stare, he revs more...I scoff...light turns grean, he attempts a neutral drop and hops the car to a slow start...I start off the line as a normal person...granny shift casually into second, hes a couple car lenghts ahead...so I decide lets just give him a little taste. Those who have been in my car know what 2nd is like...so I floor it. By the time I hit 100km/h and shifted into 3rd, he was way back there, hahahaha. Ricer Flyby at its best, except for the fact he was trying and I played catch up. I laughed, and continued on at the posted speed limit.

    Then as luck would have it I hit the next set of lights. Of course I'm first to arrive. I see him approaching and the light turns green just before he gets to the stop line...and what does he do?

    muhahaha, I dont even need to answer that one.

    There are some things ricers cant buy, and thats respect. None given to this character, as that was the epitomy of terrible. If only I had my camera...this car is like nothing I have ever seen before

    the funny thing about ricers is they don't seem to understand when another car is faster/nicer than theirs and they will get hauled...

    Same with mine - big 4x4s, station wagons whatever - baffled me for awhile until I figured out they just want to watch you take off (sort of like us if we lined up against a nice exotic). Even the dumbest car person knows you need a pretty insane car to take a bike on a straight run.

    the guy dropping his clutch on his tempo was obviously doing something wrong, or his clutch was going, because i can do burnouts with ease.. and not just a small squeel.. but actual smoke bellowing burnouts..

    i don't think tempos came in standard, ergo no clutch.

    He was probably doing the good old neutral drop with his Dad-illac.
