Default Unmaintained car revs on me, hilarity ensues.

Anyone that knows me knows I drive a civic that is the SLOWEST car on the road. It has a little D15 in it for it's good gas mileage and is just a daily driver for me. Anyways, a friend and I were headed over to the mall to see Jackass (which we couldn't because of my friend and his lame underage self) and this newer Pontiac Firebird starts following me. I turn into the mall and he is still following me, the whole time revving his engine and hitting the ebrake so he can fishtail around corners (Read: SPO on cocky teenagers and muscle cars).

I park somewhere and he pauses slightly to get a look at me and what I'm driving; after seeing and hearing the kids car I HAD to have some fun with him. The kids car had the WORST primer job I have EVER seen in my life. It looked like a retarded zebra on crack that had just got beaten with an ugly stick. I follow him up the ramp to the top of the parking garage and park next to him and he starts revving it again. Keep in mind, I don't know much about cars, but I know enough to know that there was no mods to the engine, he didn't take care of the engine, and the timing was off. I have never revved my car before, but just though I would to joke around with him. Low and behold, as soon as the gas is pushed to the floor, my little 4 banger lets out a much beastlier sound than I would have ever expected. Since my car is well taken care of it has no problem beating out the sound of a car that wasn't maintained. The guy gets out of his car, shakes his head, and hangs his head down low while walking into the mall with people laughing at him.

It was almost as good as the lady who didn't realize she was in drive jumping over the median that seperates parked cars to hit the front of an SUV in a parking lot.

Yea, I was laughing afterwards. I'm not the type of person to rev on people or drive in a stupid manner.
