Bad Kill good story! Ok here is the story. I hope I can stop laughing long enough to type this out. I went out with an old college buddy of mine a couple of weeks ago in Ft Worth TX. After leaving downtown at 2 or 3 we started heading for home. On an empty 2 lane 40 mph road we travelled along dumb and happy, while being careful not to get pulled over since we had beer on our breath. As I drive past the poster boy for rice burners international I was careful to completely ignore him and to mind my manners despite my feelings about conspicuous rice burners. Well of course he was not going to have that. The driver of this VW Vr6 with all the stickers and trash can exhaust refused to let me make it home without first stomping his German Love machine. So as the stoplight turns green I give him a nice head start as I roll gently into the throttle and then less gently into the bottle, I make a beautiful high speed pass(very dramatic)travelling upwards towards 100 mph as I drive on past. Now here comes the amusing part. I was just starting to feel bad about wasting my fuel and Nos on this VW just to show off when I see it....A COP! One of Ft Worth's finest is pulling out of a gas station turning towards me and the VeeDub. At this point I am passing through 100 and I immediately threw out the anchor. I managed to get slowed way back before the nice officer got pointed at me. Unfortunately the dude in the poopoo rocket didnt see the cop and decided to engage in an activity commonly referred to as the ricer fly by. I couldn't believe what my rear view mirror was telling me, but it was true! This guy flew by me like I was sitting still then saw the cop and got on the binders. He didnt see the cop until way after the cop saw him..ooops! The officer immediately turned on the red and blues and gave a quick chase. The VW pulled over to meet and greet three squad cars and 5 or more nice police men. I still thought I was going to be stopped, but surprisingly they let me drive on by without anymore than a look. I suppose the FWPD likes rice burners about as much as me. So to all you rice burners out there, Let this be a valuable lesson on why you should not participate in a ricer fly by!
