I'm driving around with my friend today job searching and we pull up to a stoplight its red. It's a one way two lane road and a red mid 90s Intrepid pulls up beside my 90 Accord. I look over and laugh, its some old lady at least in her 60s, white hair, everything. Jokingly i turn to my friend and am like, "hah watch me smoke her ass". Inside joke with me and my friends, racing people who dont know we're racing them. Anyways i powerstall to 1200 rpms, take off, great launch. I hit bottom of 3rd gear, goin about 60ish, let off the gas for a second so my car can slow down cause speed limit is 45. Half a second pause and then BAM!! out of the corner of my eye i see the Intrepid right before it blows by me, i try to hit the gas again and keep up but its too late, she's already 6 car lengths ahead of me while my friend is laughing his ass off.



We meet up at the stop sign and the old lady is just grinning lookin back it us cause she's in the other lane a few cars up, i give her a thumbs up.



Needless to say it was an embarrassing night for the accord.
