I pwned you, dear Waja ...

Dear Silver Proton Waja With Heavy Tinting Bling Stickers And Stupid Halogen Light,

First of all, I would like to apologize to you for having to eat my fumes all throughout the LDP stretch. It must be no fun. I would also like to apologize to you for nearly losing control of your car. That must suck. I hope you will find someway to nurse your ego back.

As you would now have learnt, Proton Wajas are no match for me. Not even if you try. Not even if you ate a few babies for fuel before hand. And no, not even after Lotus tuned it. I hope that is absolutely clear to you.

While I make it clear to everyone that I drive nicely, and appear to be a domesticated road user, I was once a daredevil like you too. And I became smart - while still in my Proton, I realised that Protons can speed, but they don't necessarily stop when you want them too. I offer to share this piece of important advise with you.

Granted, all cars travelling at very high speeds would have problems stopping rapidly. However, I would like to point out that you inferior Proton doesn't have ABS. It can't do EBD. When you want it to stop, it acts in funny ways. Well, not really funny considering lifes are at risk. But you get my point. My humble little City has got that ABS and EBD thingy that you don't. My ability to stop rapidly would probably be as good (or as bad) as your car's, but at least I have some control over my car's steering while under braking.

And while you might point out your car is a 1.6 car vs my paltry 1.5 car, I would like to remind you that engine capacity counts for little. I believe my car accelerates better that yours. Just like it stops better.

And finally, next time, on any road which you share with users like me, please, don't be a fool and flash your halogen lights at me. Or anyone else. It's not as if I am delaying you. It's not like cars on the LDP would part as if it's the Red Sea under Moses' control if you continously flashed your lights at all the cars.

And believe me, it shrinks your ego to the size of a subatomic particle when you flash your lights at someone and then get soundly pwned. Understand or not?

But more than anything else, it ain't your ego, it's the other people on the road, ok ?

One more thing, next time, when I pull away, get smart lah ... don't start racing. Otherwise, you eat fumes.
