So I've never been big on running my truck but I got in line for a double turning lane ot get on I26 going to get my kids this evening. The left lane is full so I get in the right lane (which has to merge over) but the light changes again before I get through. There is a young kid in an older camaro beside me blaring his music. The light goes green and I give it bout half throttle and I here an engine and something like a whistling sound (SC maybe) or something, I don't know but the kid in the camaro is way behind but in my mirror I see a dodge dakota covered in performance stickers all but underneath my truck. So I stomp it and left him like he was in reverse. Well I slow down as I catch traffic getting on the interstate and we all merge over in the slow lane, cept dodge boy who cuts off a car to get in the fast lane and just blows by and is pointing out his window and proceeds to ride the bumper of the car in front of him. I decided to have a little fun so I get over and give it all it has (mind you the speed limit is 70) and I catch him instantly and as much as he tries to get away, I stay right with him. Well, I guess he'd had enough so he lets off (below the speed limit) and get over in the slow lane and rolls his window up and won't even look at me.
THe rolled up window...hahaha! The sign of utter dismay and defeat...well I can't roll my passanger window down cuz its a manual. But I don't worry to much because most little street spurts like that...I win.
Good kill man!! Hey I'm from Kingsport. We need to hook up man. You can go to the Street fights at Bristol with me. You still in the Army? I spent 10 years in the Marines.

Don't know if you like offroading but I'd kill to know bout places around here to go since I grew up in VA.
