Had a funny ricer encounter at O'riley In Vallejo
So I went to O'riley (Kragen) on Springs Road the other day to get a new oil pan gasket and filter for my powerglide. Here is how our conversation went down. -------------------------------
O'riley - What year car is it for?
Me - I dont know, I have it in a different car. Just type in a 60's chevy or something.
O'riley - Oh yea... What kind of car you got it in?
Me - A mustang.
O'riley - You race it?
Me - Yep.
O'riley - Whats done to it?
Me - Nothing itz stock
O'riley - Than why do you have a powerglide in it?
Me - Because I wanted to make my car slower. Thats why I put a 2 speed in it.
O'riley - Really? Bring it down here.
Me - I cant drive it on the street. You trying to race or something? What you got?
O'riley - Yep, I got a bel-air, What you got in the mustang? Why cant you drive it?
Me - Not much, Just a big block. And Cause its not street legal.
O'riley - Oh yea, I got a small block im mine. Run's in the 11's
Me - Wow Ok, lets run for some cash.
O'riley - My boy got a rx-7 that will run for some cash. Got a mustang motor in it.
Me - Ok ask him if he wants to run.
-----So they put my parts on order and I leave and come back the next day.
Me - So whats up with that mazda... does he want to run for some cash?
O'riley - F no man. you got a big block in a mustang.
Me - Ok how about that bel-air you got?
O'riley - Nope. How about you go get your car and drive it down here.
Me - I told you its not street legal.
O'riley - Come on man, Get your car ill race you right now on springs road right here.
Me - Are you serious man? You wanna race down a busy ass street. Ill race you at Red Top road.
O'riley - Naw man. Alright tell you what, ill race you from here to Richmond. First one there wins. Ill even drive my acura.
Me - Ill race you at the track legaly and we can put money on it.
O'riley - Ok you wanna race for money... My friend has a camaro with 20 racks under the hood.
Me - Is it the guy with the 383 with a supercharger on it? If so, I know him and his car never even worked right so it not even together anymore.
-----So I leave on that note. They still didnt have my part. I come back the next day (Today) and the guy with the camaro is actually at O'riley! So I go inside and talk to mr O'riley
Me - Is that the guy with the camaro?
O'riley - Yep thats him.
-----I walk up to the guy in the camaro and say whats up. (I know him) ask him how his car is doing and if he knows mr O'riley. He says he doesnt even know the guy lol.
Guy thought he was cool un'till I said what I got and that I would race him. Than he has a friend that will race. When I say ill race him he says he will race me on a busy street. Than wants to race from one city to another! Than trys to set up a race with someone he doesnt even know lol.
This guy is a true ricer at heart! Why do some people try so hard to be cool?
Next time anyone goes to O'riley on springs in vallejo you should ask him if he wants to race lol. He is a very tall white guy. Cant miss him if he is there. [ April 30, 2012, 10:00 PM: Message edited by: ItzStock ]

monument ftw. on a side note..employee at oreilys tells me he has a 07 gt 5.0. i almost laughed in his face. is it me or do they need folks that actually know something about cars?

I was slow to take the hint, so I'm taking a break from CAFords for the rest of the month. Now excuse me while I enjoy some cereal. Mmmmm Mmmmm good. Who else wants to join me?

Your talking about the friction modifier for the rear end, I believe you will have to go to ford to get it.

BTW MOST people who work at chain parts stores don't know shit! I once called N asked if they rent jack stands N dude asked "umm I don't know what that is, let me check with my manager." REALLY!?
