Default Funny Ricer story

So in my town there are quite a few really crappy ricers that drive around. Last night as im getting on the highway, this crappy little 4 door honda accord cuts in front of me. This one was especially cool, it had the miss match body pannels, with multi-colors, The giant universal exhaust hanging from the rear, the extremly hard suspension (for "racing" i guess). So anyway it comes clunking around the corner infront of me with its wonderful BURRRRRRRRRRRR comming from the exhaust, and i notice that its kinda flapping around, and im thinking hmmm that looks like its definatly gonna fall off any time soon.
So he goes redlining each gear on to the high way with the high pitched whine and loud exhaust. I watch as he goes weaving in and out of traffic, he's now about 6 to 7 cars ahead. And i stop paying attention to him. While crusing in the middle lane, the cars ahead of me slow down fast and swerve around something. I come up to it, And what else would it be but a god damn exhaust. I look at it and i think, wow that one looks relaly familiar. So speed up and start weaving to catch up to my ricer buddy. Sure enough the son of a bitches exhaust came clean off!!! He didnt even pull over to check. U can hear the even louder noise coming from his little peice of crap. I bet he thought that his exhaust had finally broken in and it was now at its peake. It made my day to see that.

Thought that it was pretty funny, and wanted to share.

i saw someone's muffler fall off on the interstate once. luckily, i was one lane over and passed it as it slid along, throwing a nice trail of sparks. as with your story, the driver didn't stop.

i also saw a guy in a van who lost a rear wheel on the interstate. it came off, headed for the cement wall between north and south bound lanes and then proceeded to shoot over the wall and into traffic heading in the opposite direction. he did pull over, but i don't know if he ever got his wheel back.

It doesn't need park distance control, and hates decadence. It is musclepacked, yet lightly wound. It lets you feel the asphalt and get you going with the smallest touch of the pedal. It provokes, seduces, and demands to be driven hard. It looks, sounds, and smells like performance.
