The funniest conversation I had in years... - NJFBOA - Home of New Jersey's Camaros and Firebirds

enRo · 11-20-2004, 12:52 PM

This kid I grew up with years and years ago, moved to Florida around Winter of 1994. So Friday, out of nowhere, he pulls in my driveway in a beat-up 80's Ford Taurus. I was working on my trunk and noticed him standing next to me. We bull****ted for about 20 minutes about life, and other things. Then he's like "what do you have under here?" So I pop the hood and show him, while Im dissing the granny 305

. Then he starts talking about how he had a 1998 F-150 in Florida, that popped wheelies and ran high 10's, smoking old GTOs and Camaros. By looking at what he was driving, I laughed. He got all defensive and said "It was turbo-charged, it had upgraded fuel injectors, and an aftermarket carbeurator. LOL! I kinda felt bad cuz he is the worse liar I ever met, so I decided to keep my mouth shut. Then he said he had a "1980s Ford LTD" (<<whatever that is) with a 6.0L engine and did 170mph in a quarter mile. So I said "any trans or rear upgrades?" He said No... and Im guessing the rear-end was stock

... so I went along with the conversation nodding my head like yea yea yea cool... And to top it off, he said he traded that Ford in... and they were going to give him a hundred bucks for it, and he got "$5000" for it, because "the dealership took it out for a ride and said it was fast". LOL! Sorry, I just couldn't contain myself. Im expecting him here in an hour or so, so maybe he'll have some upgraded Fuel Injectors and a new Carb in that 1980's Ford Taurus. Sigh...

"Kyle, what does SE-R stand for?"
"...doesnt matter! its an SE-R! Its got an ALTIMA engine in it! Do you know how big that motor is?!"
"its 2.5 liters. Kyle, no offense, but my v6 firebird had a bigger engine than that (2.8)"
"yea, well...it doesnt matter. its an SE-R! I can go faster than anything in this school!"
"No you cant. Even if your CAR could, YOU couldnt."
"Whataya talkin bout bro?!"
"Kyle, suck at driving completely. You cant stay in your lane at 65 mph!"
"Well man, i mean, i was goin pretty fast!"

No joke. thats an actual conversation. Lexi can vouch for it. Although she didnt hear the conversation, she knows Kyle well.

And then there was the conversation with the kid who bought 89Transamws6's car...

"Nice car. 305 TPI, rite?"
"Uh, no. Its a 5 liter, fuel injected."
