  • A race

    So i finally talked enough crap to this guy at work and he said that he would race me. I have a stock 5 speed, he has a dodge stealth with way too much money put into it. I went into this race obviously knowing i was going to lose but i thought it would be funny either way. We got to a light on a long stretch of road, there was one car behind us. The light turned green and we both took off. He sped past me not soon after. All of a sudden the car that was behind me flew around me got behind him and turned on his lights, it was an undercover cop. I have never laughed so hard in my life. He called me after he was done and and said the cop clocked him going 87 mph.

    I am still laughing...
