Yep, that's right, some big fat lady blew me away in a dodge grand caravan, I gave up after 2nd gear though.

Best part about it, me and my girlfriend were fighting, and after that she was too busy laughing at me to be mad.

 

[Labfish]

She shouldn't laugh. I have an thread on here about how I almost lost to what I think was a Honda Oddessy. Just 'cuz they're minivans doesn't mean that they can't pull. Hehe.

Maybe I should sell the TC and get a souped up minivan

Of course the Caravan blew the tC away....the driver had motivation. I have a Caravan and the piece of junk is a rolling nightmare. The driver of the Caravan was no doubt trying to get somewhere before the "check engine" light popped on again. You cannot keep the light from coming on after the things get about 60000 miles on the thing. Let's see...bad ECU...oxygen sensor..other oxygen sensor...catalytic converter....coil pack...flywheel position sensor... The lady was trying to get to the dealer!

People race weirdest things. I went against a chevy truck - (is there a 1500?). Ran neck to neck, but he might have been nice to me. I had a neighbor in my car and she's a local deputy - was screaming at me and threatening to give me a ticket

 

[Labfish]

You mean she wasn't enjoying your fine driving skills?

You know my mom has a dodge caravan and they do have v6's, that with maybe a little work or a supercharger would be more than able to beat most cars. They are just shells with mid size engines.

The V6s have like 215 hp, so I'm not really upset, just amused.

<- enough said about minivan power. Go to www.turbovan.net for more info.

You all got to check these pics out, I don't know much about the crash, but I'm told 4 people were in the car and they all survived. This car is sitting in my works bone yard right now.

[Labfish]

Yeah but did they tell you how WELL they survived???
What the heck is that...mitsubishi what? Should have started your own topic on this one

....so what's the story behind the sardine can?

 

[tabooma]

Don't know, they made it through the crash thats all I know at this time... I've been meaning to get pictures online for a while now.... pretty crazzy though.. I'll tell more if I find out... but, thats a good reason to slow down & not to drive stupid...

 

[Labfish]

Or maybe get sandwiched between two semis

That car looks exactly ike my grandmother's white 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix when my uncle fell asleep driving, hit a minivan, hit a guardrail, and then was hit from behind. He survived with only a back injury, but the car was a big pile of metal.

Minivans kill cars in more ways than one.

It was a Mitsu Evo. Sad day. That silver thing in the front that's all bent and cracked was an intercooler.

 

[Labfish]

I'm glad you're able to tell the car parts from what's in that sandwich.

 

[Fallow]

Mmmmmmmmm, sandwich.

I see the world as a sum of parts. I rarely take things in as whole objects. It's fundamental to my being, and keeps me from occupying a tower somewhere with a high powered rifle and lots of ammunition.

 

[Plissken]

Lance, you're beginning to worry me.

 

[Labfish]

No towers in Kansas. I'm safe.

All the towers you could think of are in Missouri.
