i hurt my buddies back hittin switches in my El Camino. Should I feel bad?
he's always complaining about his back being messed up . He hurt it when we were racing moto-x and his throttle stuck wide open in a rythem section. He did crash HARD!
I bought a'66 El Camino from him and it was the first time he has ridden in it since I replaced the engine, driveshaft, rear-end, air-ride suspension, radiator/fan, all new Wilwood brakes, master/booster, ignition, 3" x-pipe exhaust, shifter, etc,etc,etc.
We were downtown Minneapolis Saturday night in the entertainment district and there were THOUSANDS of people out partying, waiting in lines to clubs, etc....people everywhere....and they were all hootin n hollering about my car. So I hit some switches and made the car flop around a bit. Then my buddy is like "ahhhhhh dude....I just weeked my back!"
He complained about his back a little bit, but when we got back to my house he said "thanks for the ride dude...that's a HOT f***ing car now! Wish I had it like this!" He said his back was sore, but he's ok. He'd just have to take it easy for a bit.
I laughed and thought it was funnier than $hit. Isn't that kinda funny, or am I just an a$$?
he wished he had it the way it is now, with all the custom work/changes that I made to it.
naaa. he's not hatin' or nothing. he actually is kinda proud of what i've done with the car. He just left it "plain-Jane" when he owned it. He thinks it's super cool the way it sits now. He just could never picture the car like it is now. Pretty unique. Plus he's got kids so he would NEVER have been able to do all the stuff to it. He gave me props on it!
I teased him about his back and said he wasn't "janxta" enough to roll big-dog style. He kinda laughed about it but said "whatever, let me kick you in the back".
