My Not Impressive story: 3g TL auto (stock) vs hyundai tiburon

My Racing story which happened 2 weeks or so ago:

I'm stuck at a light, the parallel lights change to yellow, so now I'm expecting the light to change ANY SECOND, and I see the truck turn right onto the highway I'm on. The truck quickly moves to the middle lane as the lane I'm in quickly ends. Then I see a kid stop for 1 millisecond because he knows the light will change any second, he chirps his tires and goes, as soon as he goes the light changes,he quickly moved to the far left lane, and I was irritated because he should have waited LOL, so I put it into MT mode and I floored it, by the time I realize that I passed BOTH the truck and Tiburon I realize I hit 70. This was after I was in the merge lane and I had to pass the truck because he was going real slow. I ease off the gas and realize the Tiburon is at least five or six car lengths back. Then I see him flooring the gas and zoom past me 80+.

I know this is nothing impressive, but it was a good rush and felt good to beat these cocky drivers because I know he thought, I can beat the light, but in the end he should have waited.

Nice MS Paint .

Tiburons are alright, I'm one of the few that likes their styling.

I was going home when these kids who were driving in a black Tiburon started to stare at me and laugh. I don't know what they were laughing about but when they floored it on the freeway, I decided to have a little fun. I stayed on their bumper moving forward and backwards up to 110+ until I said F-it and went around them. Let's just say the smiles were smacked off their faces when they realised I was just messing with them by being behind them.

~Cheers~

Just a guess but that almost looks like Coon Rapids Blvd to me, but I'm sure there are plenty of roads out there...lol

BTW - I'd get your ball joints checked...lol Your tires look a little sick in that picture
