Near-Paranormal Subaru Phenomena - #8

Taking on a Big Rig with a Subaru Brat...

 

Once upon a time, I was on a long road trip. There was this trucker who was the rude kind. He would race to get in front of other vehicles on the downhills, and then trap everyone behind him on the upgrades, he would change lanes without a turn signal, giving little room, that sort of thing.

When I honked my little horn, he flipped me off. - Big mistake!

Well, he pissed off the wrong guy in the right vehicle!

 

I thought about all the things I could do on even a one lane mountain road where this Big Rig was concerned, but waited for my chance to really show what could be done. As sson as the highway went to two lanes each direction I went to work, or actually play....

First I literally did circles arounf him, passing him fast on one side, then letting off the gas and drifting back, around the back end and up around the front end again, I did this like 3 or 4 times, but what i was really doing was ruining his gear ratio. He could not get up enough speed to get the gears right to climb the hill right. Yeah, I know, you're saying how dangerous that is, right?

Well one of the unspoken rules of reality is that people may not care whether you live or die, but they don't want to get sued!

He didn't dare do anything, he couldn;t do anything, I was far more maneuveravble and faster than he was, if he even tried anyhting I could get out of his way faster than he could budge that truck! I really messed up his day.

 

For the finale' I did something that was admittedly kinda stupid and incredibly dangerous - I passed under his trailer to the other side!

- Now don't ever try this, not only because its unsafe, etc, but also because there are very few Big Rig Trailers that have enough clearance for a subaru to pass under, and if my Brat had a shell or a rear roll bar on it, I could not have done it, but I did.

That being said, I had plenty of clearance, and normally might have done it agian, but going under that trailer gave me the willies', just as it should have, and at that point I took off and left him back on that grade struggling to get his gears and rig back up to speed.

 

Never screw with a Subaru Brat - especially if I'm driving it! - I actualy don't do stuff like that anymore, lol...
