Default killed a mercury capri

so it was a really nice day out, so i decided to take my car out and look for some trouble. im cruising up and down michigan avenue, when i see a red camaro z28, of the lt1 variety, but unfortunately, he turned, so i kept on truckin down michigan avenue...i was kind of bummed out. i wanted to see if i could beat a 4th gen.


i stop at a stop light, and this real nice white and blue mercury capri t-top rolls along side of me. it was on. he shot me a rev, i shot one back.

light goes green, we both lose traction, i take off and get him by about 5 lengths by the end of third. im sure he let off once i left 2nd though....either that or he missed a shift.

we end up cruising the same way, and he wants to go from a roll, so i do, and he gets me by a couple lengths, and i see in the bottom right hand of his bumper, right underneath it, i see some stainless steel braided lines with red and blue. was that a nitrous system possibly??? what could that have been?

we end up racing from a roll a couple times, he beat me all the times from a roll though. i seen him like 4 times today cruising, so im sure he lives around here. im also sure we will be racing again as well.

Shouldn't the title read "killed by a mercury capri"?, either way sounds like fun.

well if you count the ones from a roll....which weren't very fair for me, considerin he always took off first, and i prefer racing from a stop, i do the best there.
