Fart Car (Ricer) blow away

I drove by this loud (nos) fart car on the freeway that ended up getting behind some cars – then on a hill it decides to egg me on to race going up the hill. I'm only on two barrels :)  – can't even feel the hill – and he gets on it and drives by thinking he's hot stuff. Then I hammered it (all 8 barrels – 572 HEMI 713 HP = no match) – I was at 110 in a couple of seconds and with my pipes he couldn't hear himself think – even over his fart car (with his Briggs & Stratton-sound) I went by him like we was sitting still. I let off and slowed way down – to 50 MPH and he stayed way back. Ha ha -  Hate Fart Cars

Gotta give them a little break.  They don't know what a real wing is for let alone what a real car is like. :rofl:  Too many video games.

Nice clip :2thumbs:

Sounds like he baited you just to hear it run. Folks like to hear these old cars.
If your wheels ain't spinn'n you ain't got no traction.

Great story.  I was hoping for the actual video as well.  THAT would have been awesome.

I agree alot of the folks who drive civics with fart cans like to hear the roar of a real american muscle since all they hear is farts....

Sorry but was not prepared to film at 110 to I posted something that had the sound. I know it was no contest, but I hate fart cars and love Letting them know what a read engine sounds like next to a switch engine.

I hate the "fart car" sound these days also and congratulate you on embarrassing him to the point of not catching up with you.

That big HEMI must be a beast!

Interesting color on the Daytona. I like those wheels, too.
Nicely done.
