Took advantage of the brief break in the rain to go for a ride.
Was on a country road. Ricer blew past me, probably going 80+ in a 50. He got up to some traffic at a signal, burned rubber for I don't know how far, then started weaving in and out of traffic. All of a sudden, a huge black cloud erupts. Other cars start weaving all over the road to avoid him. By the time I got up there he was on the side with smoke pouring out of his car. Looked like his wok was on fire.
Been a good day.
My wife and I were coming home late from a tourney and some nut in a ricer decided he wanted to play. I’m on cruise and he is playing leapfrog. Every time I pass him he passes me back. Remember I’m on cruise set at about 75. We finally hit a section of road with not much traffic so I speed up a little but Mama gets on me so I slow down. Well he decides he is going to show me how fast he can go and takes off. He is about ½ mile ahead when the smoke starts boiling out and he is trying to get off the road. When I pass him there is steam and smoke boiling out from under his car. Fried Rice!
Here is the stupid part; Mama and I are in my Nissan pickup! So the bottom line is these idiots don’t care who they fool with!
