Cute story....
My hubby is into muscle cars---- BIG TIME!
Each year they have a classic car show and my old man always enter's a couple of his cars.(He also have a 1/4 mile drag car that he races- Racing is in his blood)
Anyhoo...He was at this car show last year. There are 100's of people all over the state of Ohio who bring their cars to this show. They take the cars out and cruise on blocked off street so the people can view all the show cars. Of course this leads to the men reeving what's under 'da hoods.
My hubby wanted to do a head's up race with some guy from Akron. He goes over the the guy and asks him if he wants to do some racing in the country. (This guy came over to see my hubbies car earlier and was bragging about his own car)
Sooo....We all head out into the country. My hubby and him get out of cars and make their bet's. (If I recall, they bet $50 bucks) I head over to get into the car. Hubby proceeds to tell me that I can't drive along..."WFT?" , I ask. He say's, "Less weight with you out". "Prick", I respond. He laughs.
Anyhoo...They line 'em up. I send 'em off down the road.
Local sheriff just so happens to show up while they are in the midst of dragging. I'm pissing my pants! I'm more worried I'm gonna be stuck out in the middle of the boonies- I CAN'T DRIVE A STICK SHIFT!
All in all...This little "fun" cost them both a hefty ticket and court costs.
If you ask him about it he'll only recall that he WON the race!
