Great Smoke Stories!

[Sticks]

So I am thinking of all the stories that have been posted, and I have come to the brilliant conclusion that we are acting just like a squid.



Squirt. . ZIP... and were gone, leaving the pursuer in a black sticky cloud.

 

[truckstom]

Hmmm,

Sticks, you may have stumbled onto something... squid.

Did you "squid" him...

I gave him a good "squiding"... .

wow, what a "squid" show...



well, maybe not, smoke still sounds better I think...

 

[Sticks]

Smoke does sound better, but it is a real good visual representation for those who have no idea what we are talking aobut.



Now I am waiting for someone to come out with a good sized tailgate sticker of a squid, just so people will ask...



"Here, let me show you. "



Charlan, your thread, any opinions?

 

[Sticks]

Hmmm,



Maybe a new form of recognition like the 700 (hp) club.



Anyone that can black out an interseciton with out power brakeing, and have a 40 - 80 mph time of 3. 5 seconds.

One of my best smokings was a Corvette, we were coming home from a pull on I64 W in KY there were 5 or 6 of us running together when I see a Corvette ahead so me and another guy go and see if we can get a race, we pull next to him at about 75mph and fly around him but he doesnt do anything so we just stayed ahead of the rest and finally when everyone ealse started to go buy him he jumps out into the fast lane going up a hill and one of my buddies yells on the CB and says here he comes get em I was about 5 car lenghts in front of him when he pulls out, I was running a bigger charger so by the time I get it going hes right at my left side rear bumper then I take off and he never catches me I was 3 or 4 car lenghts ahead before I let out of it, and then I slow back down to give him another chance but he dosent try anything just rides my butt for about 1/4 a mi then he exits at the next off ramp and as he does I give him a nice big cloud to grow on.

Give me a little time, and I will get a sticker drawn up. . how does a squid with 4 wheels, and stacks, with a poof of smoke coming out his arse sound?? It's a starting thought... y'all gimme some input.

Wheels are in motion as we speak, don't know when I will have it running again though, work is about to get busy and I'll be on the road(work) over both holiday's, might be after the new year before I get some real data.

Do I have a story for you guys!!!



So I'm headin' over to campus tonight to do some dorm-stormin', and as I pull onto campus there's "Jetta John" as we call him in his riced-out box-style Jetta leaving... I flip a u-turn real quick as I know he's always good for a race and the box goes to kill. Takes me about 1/2 mile to catch him and I pull up next to him but he doesn't want to play... hmmmm, ok, fine by me. So, he pulls into a turn lane to turn left and the lights red. I stop a normal distance behind him, but after you make the turn there is a suicide lane (read: racing lane) for about 200 yards. I was planning on going into the right lane and blowing around him. So, light goes green and he rev's the ricer sky high and takes off around the corner. As I turn the corner and start to go for the right lane, he slams on his brakes and DIVES for the right lane HARD!! I had to yank back to the left as he basically stopped in the middle of the two lanes. Well, after I was sure I was clear, the smoke pedal went to the floor. As I spooled the right rear broke loose (still turning a slight left). I was well past him, but he still got a good smoke show and the loud rapping of the Cummins off his window. So, I'm still pedal through the fire-wall when I glance to my left and sure-as-I TRIED TO BY-PASS THE CUSSING FILTER, there's the boys in blue going the opposite direction, watching me and "Bullula" in all her glory smokin' out the town! So, the turbo got barked from 45 psi to idle and I put her in neutral and just coasted. The cop flipped a quick turn and the lights came on momentarily... I put on my blinker as I knew there was a road coming up on the right, and I was gonna pull over and just take my whippings... no reason to keep going when you know you're definitely in the wrong. So, as I slowly make my turn, Jetta boy goes by me a little, then STOPS in the middle of the road right in front of where I turned. The cops started to make the turn, then stopped and chatted with him for about 1 minute. I just slowly kept creaping up the road at about 2 MPH. At this point it'd been about 2 minutes since my little escapade and I glanced back at the intersection and you wouldn't believe the cloud of smoke that was hanging there!!! HAHAHA I couldn't see the stop lights through it! Finally I sped up to about 15 MPH and found a place to pull over... I pulled over and let her idle down and shut my headlights off, but left the parking lights on. Finally the cops followed suit and pulled up behind me w/ the red and blues flashing. It took them literally 5 minutes to come to the window, as they flashed their lights through EVERY WINDOW IN MY CANOPY!!! Finally a female officer came up and the conversation went about like this... "What are you doing parked here?" "Well miss, I knew you were coming to talk to me, so I just pulled over for you. " "Oh? Well, you were going a little fast back there, weren't you? What's the deal with that?" "Yeah, I just had a bad day and am in a bad mood and was just being stupid. " "Well you scared the h*ll outta that kid in the Jetta back there. " "Yeah, I know, that was a bad move. " "Well, you got the license, blah, blah, blah... . I'll be right back. " So, we sit there another 10 minutes, and finally she comes back and the following conversation ensues... "So, here's what I'm gonna do... I'm gonna give you a written warning for speeding, but I'm gonna tell you, we've had A BUNCH of reports of this vehicle speeding lately and that could easily turn into wreckless driving or a ticket" (which to me means "We saw you sideways and what you did, but you knew you were in the wrong and stopped so I guess we'll let you off... stop being dumb!") Well, my first thought is, what sob is calling the cops on me for speeding? I haven't been driving stupid for about 2 months now! I asked "Who's been turning me in? When was I reported?" "We don't keep track of that, or else this probably would be a ticket, and it doesn't matter who turned you in. Now sign here. "



So, I took my penance and am going to spend the next 5 days minding my p's&q's while here at school. I know, not the bestest smoke story, but DAM you shoulda seen that cloud! BTW, "Jetta John" did make TWO trips by me while I was talking to the cops, and just 2 minutes ago he made a lap through my apartment complex and stopped by my pickup... I'm planning on having slashed tires at some point, so will leave the ones I have on now on till I have to change them to go home. He touches my pickup and I won't think twice about beating him senseless!



Have a great night folks... mine's off to a good start! Oo.

A friend of mine has this bumper sticker



"Do you belive in life after death? Mess with my truck and find out!"

 

[C. Harlan]

Don't even worry about the sticker. . Shoot now, ask questions later, if anyone is left to talk!

Got a good one for y'all. . Greg (Cummnzpowr) and I had turned up a friend's truck a month or 2 ago. He recently sold his truck, and about 2 weeks ago, he got a letter from the environmental air quality folks... his truck, now sold, had been spotted "by a concerned citizen, seen to be emitting visible exhaust gases [smoke] in excessive amounts", and was told to fix the problem promptly... haha, talk about a good one!

If I got one of those letters, ID frame it, .

I got a 'different' type of smoke story

Greg and I were on our way home from getting some grub to eat, when we get to a light on the highway (Rural 4 lane), and greg says to check out the hot chick in the red truck next to us. I turn around, she pulls out her pretty little glass pipe, sparks up a bowl of wacky tobaccy, and keeps puffing away on it, even as the light turns green, and we begin moving. . we tried to get her attention, but I guess she was busy doing illegal activities. I cannot believe someone with the guts to do it in broad daylight, light to medium traffic, and without tinted windows!! As she rolled by us, her cab of her truck was fogged up, so I thought since it had something to do with smoke, I would post it! I hope I do not get in trouble for this post.

Thats funny! The wife and I a month or so ago where driving home from Denver on I-25 and was next to a guy enjoying a little illegal activities just as the gal you mentioned. Cell phones are great, after my call to the CSP about 10 miles later the fella was visiting a pair of handcuffs

 

[C. Harlan]

I was thinking of doing that, but I remember when I was in high school a long time ago, I think about, mmm 5 years ago, I was into all that stuff. . I am glad I do not do it anymore, and I am open to anyone doing that... hey, Willie does, and no one says anything, but I just keep my eyes out of others business when it comes to illegal stuff like that.

I have my first REAL smoke story. Just got done installing the new DD3's and took it out for a test drive. It is about 7 miles to the city limits, so I am cruising along about 50, looking over my gauges trying to be sure everything looks good. This older blue Ford blows by me. I only know the kid by reputation, but one of my cousins is in school with him and says he is always bragging about how his truck will outrun any truck on the road. So I figure hey why not. At this point I still haven't seen what kind of smoke I am putting out cause it is well past dark. SO I get up behind him and then just lay on it going around him. I look in the mirror and I don't see any headlights for a second and then there they come out of the haze.



Say HEELLLLOOOOO to my new Friends!!!!!!!! DD3's



Can't wait for tomorrow and having some daylight to se the show.

 

[HoleshotHolset]

Nice reference to Scarface.....
