Great Smoke Stories!

Where's Chris, smoke police chasin him

 

[Got Smoke?]

I got one Friday. I was over in a neighboring town (Lebanon) to see fellow TDR member MEvins. Well when I left I was kinda hot rod'n it a little, and I was moving along pretty good down main street and a fullsize Chevy Company box van pulls right out in front of me... ... . mind you yes I was speeding but come on dumb *** BIG WHITE TRUCK WITH STACKS!



So I slowed down and got in the other lane... . pull up beside him at a red light and looked over with a look on my face (more like Pi$$ed The F. O. )... . and he just kinda looked at me like "what" seeing as this was a grown man and I'm only 20.



Light changed..... traffic moved on ahead and when I got the chance I got over in his lane and let him have it!! Oo. Oo. Oo.



The whole time I was wishing I had my new FE, 370's, & #10 though. :{

yeah, it was a royal PITA; Thanks to CPeters and CummnzPowr for helping out!



I have been on hiatus since our stock show is in town, so I will get back and resume smoking soon! Till then, just look at the archives for good stories, till I get to making soot again!

so I'm coming home down Arapaho Rd. in Richardson, TX, and a guy in a 66-67ish vette convertable zips past me... he leaves every light really hard and is really pushing it through all the curves between Floyd and Westshore... enough that the rear started to drift a little at one point. good times right? fair enough...



so we end up getting stopped at Westshore. I'm in the left lane and he's right next to me... I figure he's gonna take off from this light the same way he's taken off from every one. I have no idea if I'll even be able to get out on him so I tried to inch forward as much as possible without attracting attention.



I'm watching the cross traffic light out of the corner of my eye watching for the yellow...



I had it in 2nd, and let the clutch out when the cross light went red. the truck inched out and the light went green, and I just rugged it. didn't wind it out too hard, got into third and wound it out to ~3400



checked the mirrors as I eased into 4th, and all I saw was black smoke! LMAO!!! just plain covered the road... then there he was just behind me to the right, and then he turned into a parking lot.



I have no idea if he tried to accelerate through the smoke and couldn't pass me or if he got out of it once the smoke show started and then accelerated up on the right, but I have this funny little feeling that he tried to accelerate through it and couldn't (at least that's what I'd like to think!) the car didn't sound like it was all that... probably just a mild 350... not to take away from the car or anything, it was a nice looking car. I wasn't a big fan of the wheels, but still definately a cool ride.



in 2. 5 months of owning the truck, that's the first time I've just outrightly smoked someone like that... I don't make a habit of it. I mean I'll give somebody a little cloud on the highway if they're hogging the left lane or if they're riding too close, but for some reason the little devil on my right shoulder was yelling louder than the little angel on my left!

Forrest

ain't that the $hits? When that little fella is yellin' in your ear "Come on!!! You can take him! Max the box and put her to the floor... she'll smoke 'em like it's her job!"



Sometimes I like the guy, but other times he's got me in trouble... . ah well, he's a heck of a co-pilot to have riding with ya.

All these stories are sorta like farts in church - naughty - but funny as all get out... .

 

[cbunt1]

Gary--Agreed.



Although, I'm first to admit I'd do it if I could. . '03's just won't smoke stock



Can't decide if injectors or box is the way to go though...

Got one for ya... ... Last thursday I had an empty trailer on and I'm running late. I pull up behind this Minivan and she sits there... . and sits there at this stop sign. You could have driven 2 semis through the turn and she is STILL waiting. I have enough angle to notice that her window is open. I throw it into Neutral and rug it a few times to make my point. She finally decides to go, I follow after a rolling stop. The next stop sign, she doesn't even hardly slow down! So I stop and go through as well. Now we are on a side by side road and I pull up next to her. She's got the window about 2/3 of the way down smoking. Well I don't smoke but my truck sure does! We pull away from this stop light, with my foot promptly planted on the floor! Needless to say she turned on her headlights and rolled that window up pretty fast! Next light... . same thing. The 3rd light someone pulled up behind me so I was nice and didn't smoke the innocent out. At that point I think she figured out I did it intentionally, but I didn't care. She got what she deserved.

*note* no children were in the Minivan, or I wouldn't have done it.

I'm Baaaaaaaaaaaack!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, Gotta love the flaky girls. . you know the 2 hotties you take out the night before, be a gentleman, and they leave you standing there for the last song to look like a fool??? Yeah; aint smoke such a sweet revenge when their @sses are following you!!!



So, here it goes:



Yesterday (Sunday) we were leaving the ranch in Buda, TX. . As we pulled out of the muddy driveway, they were right on my back bumper. I throttled up grandma gear, only after the truck has been running for about a half hour or so to warm up. . as we take off, I just punch it, lug 2nd, smoke 3rd, 4th, and part of 5th... when I look back, they are stopped in the road waiting for the smoke to clear!! hahahaha, I was nothing but nice to this one girl, whom I had spent over $200 for Rodeo tickets, since I could not get her in behind the chutes. Needless to say lots of head games ensued this past week, and around thursday or Friday, she calls me being all sweet on me, wanting to go to Austin so we can go see some live music. I told her that was fine, and even smoked her out every chance on the way up there! Thats ok, I will see her one day when I get brave enough to drive on the streets with no AFC spring, and Oh lordy! its gonna be sweet revenge!! hahahaha, oh well. just thought I would post a story on here since I have been absent for a while!



Happy Smoking!!!

Oo. Oo. Glad to see ya back here! This thread has been pretty much dead with your truck not running.



Let the games begin!!

Welcome back to the party! Understand totally about the buckle bunnies and the money grubbers.

Chris,



Will be in Austin March 16th through the 19th, leaving the 20th. My roommate lives there and we're going there for spring break AFTER 3 days in South Padre. We'll definitely be partying Friday night the 19th on 6th Street, but am not sure of plans for the rest of the week yet... . don't know how far from there you are, but wouldn't mind buying you a beer if you came up.



BTW, my roommate's '03 is hardly a smoker... just an EZ so far, and that's what we'll be driving, not mine.
