Fried Rice

[MARK C]

Coming home from a buddy's house tonight.I'm sitting at a light and this 10 year old 4/door civic pulls next to me young kid alone in it. I thought he might go so, I'm ready when the light changes.It turns green he goes then I do the same! I'm right next to him I grab a good 2'nd and I've got him bye a car (he's got a 5/speed also) well into 3'rd gear I'm about 3 cars in front! I shift to 4'th and then 5'th and coast down a little and then.....you guessed it the famous ricer fly bye!!!
This is a story I would normally NEVER post here but.... I'm driving my winter beater!!..1989 Escort GT!!! 1.9 HO, 141,000 miles sloppy as hell shifter. Rust every where. Hell, I just put her in a ditch last week...Tore up the front bumper cover. The race wasn't even close!! And just think the little kid would have done the same thing if I was in my Cobra! LOL

LOL, nice kill!

Man I was kind of wondering for a second, with you only pulling three cars by fourth I thought you might be missing all your gears until I read you were driving the Escort. LOL!

Great kill story! My previous rides included a '86 Mercury XR3 and a '89 Escort GT. Great little cars. That "hemi" 1.9 fears no rice!!!

You know how it is. A win ALWAYS feels GOOD!!!!!
I don't care which car I'm driving!
I just started the Cobra in my garage tonight, Man does it feel good to hear the sweet rumble of the 302 roar!!!!
Thanks for all the great replies! Love to hear them!

maybe you should let him feel a bit better by letting the ricer know your escort has a mazda engine.

good kill!

We all know the new 4 cyl's in the fords are all rice.
But the 1.9 HO in my 89 is ALL ford!
