As his car is getting filled with gas at the local ARCO, a kid pulls up on a moped and immediately goes nutso about the Ferrari. The man has to relieve himself, so he tells the kid to look but don't touch. As you might guess, when the man returned to the car the kid was sitting behind the wheel making weird racing noises and playing around. The man gets irate and grabs the kid by the suspenders and throws him out and slams the door. He pays the attendant and screeches out of the station doing at least 100 mph. As he shifts into 2nd gear, he sees this little dot in his rear view mirror and it is getting bigger by the second. All of a sudden....ZOOOOOOM!!!!! The kid on the moped flys by him doing an incredible 200 mph!!!!!!!!!!! Well, the man practically shits in his pants, but not to be beaten by a moped, he shifts into 3rd and floors it! At that moment he sees a little speck in front of him, and it is getting bigger! Then....ZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The moped goes by him the other way at about 250 mph!!! Mr. Ferrari can't believe it!! Some hick on a moped was lapping him! As he looks into his mirror he sees the moped coming up behind him again. He floors it, but the moped is just going to fast to get outta the way.......SMASH!!!!!!....(tinkle, tinkle)...the moped crashes through the rear window of the ferrari and into the front seat. Stunned, Mr. Ferrari looks down at the "by-now-bleeding-profusely" kid and says, "ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR $#!!*) MIND???!?!?"......to which the kid replys "Mister, can I get my suspenders out of your door now???"
