Oh I do have a few. One of my favorites is from when I went to Pinks All Out in Vegas. On Friday they have practice runs so guys can get an idea of what their car is running. I line up against one of the hundreds of 10.XXX cars and get smoked, naturally. But I have the radio on in the car tuned into the track announcer as I'm making the pass.
Which is funny in it's own right as I had a lot of strange looks as I think I had the only car racing that day with leather, A/C and a radio...but I digress...
So the other car crosses the line and I hear "Joe Smith in the near lane turning a respectable 10.XXX in that <Insert Muscle car here>..." in a farily calm announcer-type voice.
Then I cross the line. "and...WHOA!!!! A 12.107 from Robotech (not the name I raced under) in the far lane! Would never have thought that car would turn in that kind of time!"
Next time I came up to the light he remembered me..."Now keep your eyes on Robotech in that white car in the far lane...it's going to suprise you!"
Then top it off I get on T.V. in what the announcers called the first ever "Rental Car Showdown" on Pinks against a Mustang GT-H from Hertz! LOL
Then there is the 'teggie I raced up to 90, tires spinning for traction the whole time...and yet still won by a city block (granted he let off long before I did...)
Or the guy in the riced out S2000 who looked like he stepped out of the bastard child magazine created by GQ and Fitness who flipped me off after I destroyed him.
Or the guy on the Harley that couldn't believe he got beat by a four door sedan...but he was cool about it.
Or the time my ex-wife almost made a co-worker piss herself...
Or...well...yea....
Yea, I LOVE having a sleeper...
