Just got give this it will make you laugh

Post by Playbunny »

Hey guys, I was at the Street races in tampa last week when this red mr-2 comes flying across the bridge at about 140 mph. He comes flyng in, parks next to me, and jumps out of his car and says " IVE BEEN HERE FOR AN HOUR COVER FOR ME MAN" I was like ok whatever.

30 Seconds later 2 cop cars come wailing across the bridge and pull in and see the little red Mr. 2, they hop out and ask whos car it is
The kid steps foward and says its his. "Son, we saw you doing 140 across the bridge a few minutes ago". The kid says " Officer ive been here for 2 hours it wasnt me" The cops start talking to each other and after a minute or so one of them walks up to the car and PUTS HIS HAND ON THE HOOD! He immediatley walks back to the other officers and says "Its cold!" They look at the kid and at the car one
more time and say "ok we will let you go this time, but if we see another red toyota (MR-2) speeding we have YOUR liscense plate number. The cops leave and everyone bursts out laughing. I was on the gourd for like 5 minutes laughing so hard! I cant believe they are so car-stupid that they didnt realizes an Mr-2 Engine is in the back of the frickin car!

Quite possibly so, my wife has known my car for about 4 years and has driven it too but the look of sheer astonishment was classic when I told her the engine was in the back. She wouldn't believe me and thought I was pulling a fast one until I invited her outside to take a look.....only then did she acknowledge it.

LOL Reminds me of when I first bought my first MR2. Someone who I classed as a really competant mechanic came over to my house, slapped the front bonnet, and tried looking for the bonnet release. "Come on Nige, " he said "Let's have a look at the engine, then!" =D>

I did actually! For a few months, I kept an old model aircraft engine in the front and would wait for him to pop over to show him my 'engine'. :D
