Serves me right for messing with a riced-out civic...
So I'm cruising home last night about 2AM - been a long, rough night at work. I come across a small convoy of hopped-up civics. Their just cruising along at about 60 mph - I'm tired so I'm doing about 75 and I cruise by them - their staring hard so I'm thinking somethin's up. All of a sudden, my rear-view mirror is filled with aftermarket HID light - the lead civic is on my ass. Now I'm a grown adult, got mortgage, kids and wifey at home, so I'm way past my road-racer days, so I convince myself to just let him go - so he flies past me. That little voice in my head is saying "yo dawg, I know you're not gonna let him do you like that, are you? He's gonna go tell all his friends how a TL was scared to take him on and it's all your fault - grow a pair!!". No, it's not worth it, I tell myself, be the bigger man. So the civic slows down and cruise past him again. Now we come to a long straight-away and I'm thinking - he's not dumb enough to try to take me on a straight-away - he knows he's outgunned. Again, here he comes, this time he cuts me off - not a bad cut-off, I didn't have to hit the brakes or swerve or anything, but he came a little too close - enuff already, now he's gonna git it.. Before the voice of reason can say anything, my foot's to the floor, the GReddy EVO's are screaming and I'm reeling him in like a marlin - this is gonna be over quick, I say to myself. All of a sudden, the civic downshifts and burps a big puff of smoke, and my windshield looks like it's been raining - WTF!! this effin' civic just threw up on me!*&#*!#&! I blaze past him and hit the wipers and it just smears over my windshield. Now I'm in my driveway at home at 2:30AM washing the remnants of this civic off my baby. Wifey's pissed cuz I woke her up, give her a BS excuse, but she knows me too well. It's like comin' home late and the first thing you do is jump in the shower - you've been up to no good. I get up and this morning and spend an hour washing and polishing the front end of my car to clean all this crap off. Serves me right.... I know better... I'll let him go next time.. :wink:

one night this riced out integra followed me side by side for about 3 miles but my girlfriend said "NO!" period.
I know the feeling, except when there's a TC around. She hates TC's

the stuff that flew out his tail pipe is probably oil because ricers like that spend all their money on UFO lights under their car and can't afford to fix his P.O.S. car....poor honda civic. I just let them waste their gas and do ricer fly-by's all day.

That black soot just may from a used up oxygen sensor. In other words, it is gulping more gas than it needs because the sensor does not work properly anymore.
