Cool Ricer.....

Last night I was merging on to HWY 10 in Anoka, it's a clover leaf, so you don't have much of a chance to build speed before you have to merge. It's a bad design, but what do you do. Stand on the throttle and lett'er smoke! I was doin about 30-35 and got on it like I usually do. Commin up on me is a riced out Honda. Shoping cart handel, fart pipe and all. I take off like a scared cat and stay ahead of him no problem. I get to the next light and he pulls up to me and rolls his window down. "Hey dood, that truck's pretty quick man!" I said, "Ya it's not to bad for 7400lbs." He goes "Wanna Race?" I look infront of me, and remember that I have an Toyota sitting there and he has nothing. I pointed and said "Sorry dood. I would but I'm not gonna run them over." He shruggs and the light changes. So I take off and suddenly have an idea. He took off hard, so I change lanes right on his rear bumper. I stay there at about 3/4 throttle till we get around the Toyota. I change lanes stand on it and pass him. I look over and he's I just waved and smiled. I had to turn at the next light so I slowed down and waved. He was just shaking his head. Yep dood, you just got whooped by a CTD.
