Ok, so I'm cruisin south on 395 last night just mindin my own business on my way to a friends house. Both windows are rolled down enjoyin the cool (for once) summer weather, when a ricer pulls up next to me. I was in 5th gear and I hear him get on it. I immediatley went for 3rd, struggled for a sec as I was all excited, and finally found it. Then I heard the weirdest damn thing from his car. It sounded like a pssssssst. I couldn't even hear the engine rev or anything. Maybe because mine was roaring, but I could still hear this psssssssst. Is that nitrous or did he just switch from mice to squirrels? I've never been next to a car with the windows down and heard that sound before. Needless to say, whatever he had in there, I pulled away from him relatively easy. The fact that I never even hit 4th, was enough to convince me he didn't have nitrous, but... We both slowed again to let the traffic clear, just in case my winning was some sort of fluke. Same damn noise as he drifted into my rearview mirror. :smile: We both happened to make the same exit and he wouldn't even look at me. Oh well, maybe next time. Anyone have any idea what that noise would be? It was an Acura, but not sure what type. He didn't have any stickers on it, so that could have been what was slowing him down. :smile:
