Angry Get a load of this!!!!

Ok I am heading back from gettingmy new rims just put on. Heading down the Freeway in the left lane passing a car which by the way was going pretty slow and not coming off a ramp. This lady decides to speed up. WTH I said and punched it going by her. I can't stand people that do this.

But that's not even the real reason I am posting this. As a get ahead of her, I see a dark Blue GrandPrix whip out in front of her and coming up. I look over and get this, this guy is waving his cupped hand up and down like hes stroking something. I was like WTH was that about. I precede to nail it and catch up to him figuring he was going to slow down. He got on it, but the good Ole L was hauling and catching up pretty fast. Was doing 120 and decided to back down. I would have kept going but the winds yesterday were gusting to like 54 MPH, and into it btw, so technically My L was going like 174 into the wind if I had a wind meter on the truck.


Anyways that was my rant in here for the day. Yeah call me stupid for going that fast, but I can't stand Aholes like that.

I wouldn't have done that!

I would never do that on NEW rims!!!!


You should always go back after about 150 miles or so and have your rims re-torqued, or do it yourself. (aluminum rims anyway)

Therefore, after leaving the shop with new wheels, I wouldn't want to take that chance of going that fast with fresh torqued wheels.

Besides the "Intimasturbator" in the Gran Prix, was his a GTP, he was probably trying to run with ya.

Rims look nice. Are they chrome or polished aluminum? I know of a guy in Belvidere that is doing 12.50's in a GTP. I have a cousin that's doing 12.90's with out nitrous. They can be quick cars but there trans are very weak.
