I was in my 93 Typhoon in Los Gatos at a red light adjusting my on board boost control up to 25 psi and I heard someone yelling over my stereo and it was this teenage kid and his dad in a 2001 Black Lamborghini Diablo VT 6.0. The kid said to me that my truck was the coolest Typhoon he has ever seen and he has been trying to find one. Before the light could turn green his dad asked me to pull over so I did. They looked my Typhoon over and the dad asked if I could take his son for a ride and I said sure then I said to myself, now the old man owes me one and we can race when I get back. I pulled out and went a few stoplights up until I was first in line so dropped the boost to 22psi and turned off the nitrous, I did not want to give up all my tricks to this kid. I staged to 13 pounds of boost and launched it. The kid put his pager in my cup holder and when I hit the gas the Phoon lunged like a raped ape and his pager flew back and hit my back hatch glass and when I hit second all 4 wheels chirped. I had to hit the brakes hard due to upcoming traffic and I looked at the kid and he was white. I said what do you think and all he said was that on the launch his field of vision blurred and my truck was the baddest thing he has ever been in. I said I wanted to race his dad and the kid said I would kick his dad's ass up and down Los Gatos.
When we got back he told the old man about the ride and when he heard that I chirped all 4 tires in second gear he said he did not want to race. I said after you get your Diablo fixed we will run and he still said no while his kid was laughing behind him giving me the thumbs up. Then he said he will bring his other toy out and race me. I asked him what it is and he told me it is a 2002 Porsche Gamballa Twin Turbo GTR 550 running 750 horse. He said he will look for me out one day and we will see what my little truck can do and I said NO, here is my number, Call me and I will meet you anywhere and I will have my video camera with me filming my little V6 eating up your $250,000.00 porsche and he laughed, we shook hands and left.
Not a bad way to spend my lunch hour!
