I never thought for the slightest moment that I would see her again. My old Trans Am. She still looked the same as when I last seen her. Only this time she was running, with power too!
So I had to go back up to work to fix a minor problem. I was taking the usual route along the way, and just ahead of a few cars, I see some recognizable lights. I didn't think it was my Trans, but I wanted to catch it just to admire and reflect on it. But sure enough, it was mine. Paint was chipped really bad, that's why I couldn't recognize. As soon as I caught it, I pulled up to the driver, rolled down my window and got his attention. He was an older guy, with a mullet (yeah a mullet). Typical 80's guy. But, I told him that it was my old car, and he gladly asked me to race. I didn't even think for the slightest second, and nodded my head yes with excitement. I dropped into 3rd and looked over to see him waiting for me to go. So I gave it three honks, and punched it. Before I even was able to hit 4th he had put an instant 3 car lengths on my. But the sound, oh the sound of that V8 roaring past me. AAAHHHH, memories. He pulled back and looked over and laughed. I too laughed. We pulled over, and he let me look through my car and admire what he had done with it. I already forgot what he dropped into the engine bay, but it was so much faster than what it used to be. We parted ways, and I rushed back to work. I'm not ashamed one bit to have lost to my old car. It's good to know that she is being taken care of. Maybe that's what I should be looking for again. HHHMMMM... Well I got owned, but it was well worth the loss. Late... |

Nice death to ur old car. When you sell your old car to someone they sometimes don't even take care of it.

Re: CivRacer meets with an old friend! AAAWWWW...
Yeah, I was gone that summer when my kid sister blew the engine it. My dad didn't see any reason for keeping it. So he sold it for dirt cheap, I think he sold it for $1K. It only had 94,000 miles on it too. I was only 17 at the time, and fixing cars wasn't my interest. I wish I had her back. Oh well, you never can see a diamond in the rough before you until it's gone. Late...

Haha quite honest I'd rather just pretend I never had a Toyota Rav4, then again, it taught me to be greatful of my car now, and probably kept me out of a lot of trouble hahaha

That is sweet to find your old car, not a bad way to lose a race either.
I've never run into any of my past cars, not that they would get me excited; they were all beaters until I bought my first GTC. I know I won't ever be seeing it again. |

I don't think it'd get any better than to lose to a car and be like 'pfft, I used to own that car, no big deal
".Good death indeed. |
