Now first off, I'm not one to post about a "kill story" nor do I condone racing on the Highway during prime traffic. I usually tend to satisfy my need for speed on late nights when there is practically no traffic on the highway.
Anyway, I've been trying to stop by the Honda dealer that is 1 of 4 that our company owns and see the new CR-Z, but I haven't had the opportunity. So I happen to see one on the highway, so I slowly manuver over a couple of lanes to get a look at it on the move. I must say it is a nice looking car, from far away it very much looks like its predecessor the CRX. Well as I'm coming along side the car, the driver sees me checking the car, sucks his teeth and gives me the "your car aint shit look". So as traffic opens up with nice clear lanes as far as the eye can see, he throws a shift an proceeds to accelerate. Now between curiosity as to what the CR-Z can do and the arrogance of this young punk, I drop from 4th down to 3rd to open the VTEC, and hit it. Well I was highly disappointed in the CR-Z. He never got the opporunity to pass me or pull away as hard as he tried. There was a point where I was about 6 car lengths a head of him. Well after being unimpressed by its performance, I was just going to floor it and leave him as a spec in my rear view, when I noticed an NYPD blue and white just in front of a tractor trailer about 500 feet ahead. So I back off the gas. Now unfortunately for the arrogant young CR-Z owner he did not see the police, zooms past me and flips me the bird and his hazzards as he passes me. I watch on as he passes the truck and then the flashing lights come on and the police give chase. Not far down the highway, there he is pulled over. So being the friendly and courtesy person that I am, I beep my horn twice and flip him the bird with my arm as far up above my car as I can to ensure he gets a good view of it.
I can't really say much about beating up on a completely stock car, but I expected more from the CR-Z. To me it's the new Honda chick car, until it starts getting some aftermarket support, and maybe some real drivers.
