So I was riding along minding my own business when this preppy lawyer looking type pulled up to me in a Viper at a long red light and gunned his engine. I looked over and the SOB sneered. Normally I don't race anyone. What would be the point since I know I'll win every time? Anyway he looked so arrogant I had to play with him. I raised my visor and said "You really don't really want to race me. You'll hate your car if you do and I'd hate to see that happen" The gauntlet thrown down now, he had to take the bait. The light turned and I let him pull ahead. I waited until I could see his smile in his side mirror, and then I dropped down 2 gears and smoked him like he was standing still. Heres the kicker. We had to stop at another red light where I said "I warned you that you'd hate your car". I hung a left and left him steaming :D

Ok, let the rabbit out, what you got?

My personal experiences with those drivers are that they can't drive.

Most Vipers and 'Vette drivers are ok with cruising at speed limit.

Not terribly surprising, a moderately fast bike will eat the fastest cars alive.

would you mind telling us what car you have that rapes a viper?

His name should have told you the answer.

Yeah, I bet that Viper owner went to some car dealership and asked for the fastest car under $100,000, so now he thinks he can smoke anything...

we'll maybe he did it for kicks, knowing he was goin to get smoked. if he thought he could actually beat him, that viper should belong to me.

What a fool. I can't believe some people are so cocky in their $70k autos they think they can take on a bike. I'd bet a good 600cc would smoke a Viper as well (with proper gearing and jetted), so what made this idiot think he could take on a 1300cc bike???

Pick on someone in your own speed class next time!!!! I'm sure a F/A-18 or F-16 will be more than willing to drag you to 200MPH.

Let's just say the Hayabusa would smoke the F-16 on the quarter mile :)

Oh, next time be sure to drag someone into a deep curve. When you are at a full stopm, light a smoke as you watch the fool careen over the guardrail.

Not if the F-16 was being steam catapulted (If F-16s were carrier based planes) ;)

I thought this was a huge lie, until I saw that you were on a bike. I have a friend who owns a Viper, (amongst way too many other vehicles... it must be nice). He said that if he dumps the clutch on it, you don't know where your going to end up. He wouln't do it unless he's on a very wide road. That thing is just a rocket with wheels.

<rant>If that moron thought he'd beat you, than he doesn't deserve to be driving that type of vehicle</rant>
This is reminding me about that Britney Spears story, where she shell the transmission on a Ferarri... Damn shame.
