Crazy stories??? - Anyone???

[CRexer101]

Hey ya'll what up.  I was just wondering if ya'll have any crazy stories?  Any good kills?  
    My last one would have to memorial day weekend when I went back to try bring my car up here...which ironically failed but I still had an awesome weekend.
It was thursday when I arrived back at home in Cali.  Of course I had to call up an old girl.  My car had just been repainted gloss black and was drying so I couldnt drive it thurs.   Anyways the gurl I was talking to said her Senior Excursion to magic mtn was tommorrow(friday) and she really wanted me to come.  So as gullible as I am with women I said okay.  My plan was to follow the school buses and meet her at the park.   She told me 9 am was when the buses left school.  So I like I'd meet her at 845.   OMG i didnt wake up till 9 going oh shit.  I hopped in my car and headed straight for the freeway thinking I was late.  Man Southern Cali traffic sucks on the I-10 going to LA.  but once I got on the 210 I turned on my radar detecter and sped away trying to see any school buses on the way.  But I didnt.  Once I passed the 210-134 interchange I slowed down when I see a new celica GTS and and corolla vvt-i coming up from behind me really fast.  I was cruising at 80 as they passed me doing like 100.  They get in front of me and slow down and turned their hazards on.  I was like #### no.  i down shifted from 5th to 3rd.  passed both of them and turned my hazards on,  I let of the gas but this time the Celica wanted to play more so I floored it.  The Celica got in front of me but I started to gain.  I saw ahead the 210-5 interchange coming fast.  As the turn started we were both doing 110 and accelerating.  But then i notice his car bouncing and leaning very sharply.  I look down at my speedo..I was maxed out at 120+ on the turn.    then all of a sudden he lost it...he skidded and tried to counter steer left which send him smack into the center divider.   My reaction was to turn more to the right.  By doing this on the turn my back gave way and swung  out but in a split sec i turned into it and I recovered or else I would have joined the celica.  I look back and i see smoke...not a whole lot but it was obvious that Celica was fucked.  I was like enough i am slowing down.  Thank god for my suspension setup and bars.  They really saved my butt.    Then I look back and Corolla had caught up to me.  He followed me and even got off on the same exit.  I were stuck at the light and i could hear him yell "that was tight".  He followed me and we both parked next to eachother.  I was like should we roll back.  And he was like what and tell the cops we were racing...#### no.   He was also there to meet his gurl who went to same school.  He graduated 2 yrs ago.  But that was it.. I met my gurl and he met his and I had  blast.  I hope the dude in the celica is alright.  But when you race you should be prepared to give your car up.  Man that must have sucked cuase it was a new celica.  I bet his driving record is fucked now.  Oh well shit happens....Now tell me guys how many 12 yr old cars do you see hanging with new sports cars.  This is why I think our CRX is special...after all these yrs it can still kick butt!!!!

Long live the CRX....its an amazing lil car!

I have a really embarrassing one that I know I've told before but their are a whole #### of a lot more people on this board now than there were in like Feb. when I told it.  So here's my embarrassing story.

I'm driving back from a friends house (1990 CRX Si I/H/E, springs and shocks, at the time at least).  Nashville is a REALLY hilly and I'm on this road that is one of the worst.  The road goes down with a slight right hand turn the goes straight up and then straight down with a blind left hand turn at the bottom of the hill.  That stretch of road is about 1000 yards I guess (REALLY BIG HILL!).  So I'm going down the first hill when an early ninties Sentra SE-R pulls up behind me, flying.  He tries to pass me in the other lane (it's a two lane street, one lane for each direction).  I was no way going to let him pass me so I down shifted and stomped it.  GReddy snarls and starts to scream!  Ha ha, he starts to dissappear.  So I'm halfway up the big-ass hill now and start to slow down cause there are two sub-divisions at the top that have entrances no one can see out of.  I didn't want to smash another car but evidentally the SE-R did.  He's still accelerating to try and catch up.  So as I get to the top of the hill, I notice he's either going to hit me or hit the car coming the other way he can't see.  So I floor it again and he disappears again.  I let off at the bottom of the hill going 110 (speed limit is 30).  I start to go around the sharp turn way too fast.  Well, with my luck, there's comstruction going on in the other lane.  Not wanting to pass a construction site at 90 mph, I start to ease on the brakes.  Well, light cars, high speeds, bald tires, sharp turns, and the need to slow down quickly don't mix.  I'm trying my hardest not to lock up the tires but I'm not slowing down fast enough.  So I ease on the brakes just a little too hard and lock up the rear two tires (I need a brake ballance controller or learn the bleed my brakes corectly!).  So of course I start to side into the other lane right in the path of a construction truck coming at me.  I can either A) turn the wheel more to the left and hope I get the #### out of the way on the shoulder of the wrong side of the road, B) hope to God my car somehow corrects itself and I don't kill anyone or C) hit the gas, slide the ass end and try to get back in my lane.  I chose C which worked pretty well and looked cool too... until  the rear tires kept sliding and I ended up aiming back into the wrong lane.  So I just let off the gas (going about 85) and turned the wheel again to the right.  This sent me heading towards the yard on my right.  Well, this yard happened to have a HUGE ditch that I jumped (got three feet of air, at least!) and then slammed into the middle of their yard.  My car dies and then the Sentra guys drives by, honks, flips me the bird, laughs and leaves.  This big black guy in a truck pulls into the driveway of the yard I just plowed for them and starts to walk to my car.  I'm thinking I'm going to die and open the door.  The guy gets to me and says, "you OK?"  I was like, "uh, yeah."  He asks me if my car will start and I tried and it did.  Then he says, "you might want to get the #### out of this yard cause some one knocked over their mailbox with a car a week ago and the old man who lives here came after them with a shot gun."  I was like, " you don't live here?"  He said no.  So I bolted.  I went back to the construction sight and appologised to all the constrution workers but they just wanted me to "hunt down that #### Sentra and kick the guys ass."  So I went to look for him, didn't find him...  That day.  lol, found him later though.  He doesn't like me very much and I don't expect him to start liking Hondas anytime soon either!
