Coming home from work after a 16 hour shift on a four lane highway. I get in the left lane to pass a minnivan doing 70, I am tired and want to get home and pass that van before the highway turns back to two lanes. As I get to his rear bumber the van nails it and so of course so do I. I am starting to make up some ground on him when I hit the friggen speed limiter and the van goes buy and beats me to the single lane. Later at a light I pull up next to the van and a 70 to 80 year old man gives me a big thumbs up and a look like YA, I owned your a$$ buddy. I was driving my 03 sport trac, fuel cut off about 100mph. What a way to end the day, spanked by a senior citizen in a minnivan. :shrug:

:lol: That's some funny shit! I love it when old people race you. It's priceless. That makes me remember when me and my brother were out in my old Lightning one night and some 50ish year old lady in her 320-hp Cadillac SRX SUV raced us from a slow roll off of the light, around 25 mph, and we proceeded to hand her her ass. She was an awesome old lady and actually knew what a Lightning was. She said she actually expected to get beat and she just wanted to see how bad it would be. She smiled and drove off. That was the funniest race I've ever had. Anyways, take it easy man.

I have this mental image of that old guy from the Simpsons just looking over giving a thumbs up. HAH. Hilarious death.

Awesome Story! I remeber when I had my 98 Z28, some old dude in a Cadillac STS ran me from a light. That thing could motivate pretty good. At the next light I got the thumbs up, Kinda wonder what he drove back in the 50s-60s.

Either your story is total :bs: or u were so whacked out of your mind from the 16 hr shift that you didn't realize it was one of those Mercedes AMG vans. Find it hard to believe that some hunk of crap minivan took out an 03 Cobra.

No, its just an added bonus.

Some seniors eat cat food so that they can budget their prescription drugs. They need to slap an eaton on their caddy and start racing ricers for $$$.

The only thing that could make it any funnier is if the old dude had given you a big toothless grin, shot ya the bird and peeled out. :banana:

Is there a sticker on your head that says, "I'm a retard and I don't read!" ?

You got owned! Good story.

I once had a 60+ year old Lady giving me numerous thumbs up at a stop light for the CObra. It was really quite odd, especially after I acknowledged her the first time. LOL
