Hemi Race (attempt) story.

I was on my way home tonight and I end up behind this guy in a black ram hemi with an exhaust and a nice "yeah it's a Hemi" sticker on it's back window. After reading a recent post about some hemi club who's members boast about being in a Titan Killer Club I was definetly hoping to run with him to see what all the hub bub is about. I though that if I got beside him at a light I'd ask him for a race on this new deserted strip of road up the street. So I was following a bit close actually trying to get his attention. We went up the service road at a nice leasurly pace. I rolled up the windows and turned off the A/C(much to my girlfriends protest) and followed patiently. I wasn't sure if he even cared I was back there. As we came to a right turn only, going over the highway I knew I wasn't going to get a chance to talk so I was hoped we would cross the overpass, get onto the entrance ramp then punch it onto the highway. Just as I took my eyes off him at the turn he launches and gets one hell of a jump on me. Well I hammer it and were off. He did keep pulling away from me but I felt it was barely, and I think it was just from the jump he got. When he shifted into 2nd I closed the gap big time. But was still 2 car lenghts infront and I don't know what got me to stop...I think that I was ebarrased to continue because I felt at that time he had me and I might never catch up, but I shut down only before I got into second and he continued to haul a** of into the sunset... right passed an unmarked police car! Holy S**t!, I said and my girlfreind and we looked at eachother with our hands over our mouths like we had just seen a ghost! I quickly made a left onto the entrance ramp and we laughed our asses off. This was one of two of our city's completly unmarked Ford Explorer police cars. Even the license plates are regular. Someone was looking out for me. I can't believe he got nailed like that. I actually feel sorry for him. That could have easily been me. I couldn't wait to get home to post this.

Never feel or say you're sorry, it's a sign of weakness.

That would have been a mark on the bedpost, ticket or no. Bring the funk big daddy.
