    Ol' Shoebox smashed a Rumble Bee

    Well it's my first real kill with the ol' shoebox, I've messed with a few folks here and there but never a real race. Was going to work this morning around 5AM and was sitting behind a truck a the light waiting to turn left on to the 4 lane from a double turn. When this bright Yellow Rumble Bee pulls up in the inside lane(and it was still bright yellow even at 5AM) with a loud exhaust and reving it up. So I'm thinking I hope this truck in front of me goes straight, and he did. So as we are pulling off from the light the truck in front goes his way as the rumble Bee spins his tires not even knowing that I want to see what he's got. As we finsh the turn he's got a length on me so I punch it get even with him, ease up just in case he's not into, but he was so i get about two lengths on him and I let up. So I see him coming again, we even up at around 60 or so and I let him punch it and then I go. I get him by a fender right up front, we stay in it I have him by a truck and a half when I look at the speedo and see a buck and a quarter and I let out. He eased up pass me and then slowed down as if he wanted some more, but it was to close to heavy traffic, so I just nodded. But work was great all day just thinking about how he was feeling after picking on that old guy in that old truck.
