I wonder if it would be funny to just smoke up the tires without a lot of engine noise or even funnier if the hubcaps would spin and you could blow smoke out the wheel wells without acutally spinning the tires as a sort of fake out then do a little air lift on the suspension like you are power braking it all without moving an inch.
Better yet this is where you need the 2000 watt sound system with the jet engine sound track then going afterburner.

Great example. You should have a big picture of your other car to hold up next time he tries his crap.

Nice choice in cars my DD is the xB and my toy is a '00 Camaro SS and I've been in almost the exact same situation as you before.

My little run in with that red 4-door civic that I mentioned in my previous post wasn't my only one, another time I saw him when I was in the SS he wouldn't even look my way. My car is loud as well(Magnaflow/SLP y-pipe) so I know he heard me when I got on it a little to mess with him because of our previous encounter. I don't race on the streets either, too much of a risk of getting in an accident and injuring/killing an innocent bystander, kids like that really ____ me off.

I can picture these same ricers on their forums writing about all these people in Mustangs and Camaros trying to race them at lights.

only difference, in their forums they are talking about how it was a close race and they lost just barely, they were able to hang on the rear door...

What is fun however is when another tC pulls up to a red light next to you. No traffic, late at night...time to have some fun

ive only gotten to play with a Tc once, i did enjoy the look on his face though ;)

His profile says he drives a tC.


Maybe they feel that fast cars hate them too...


My run-in with punks in a 350Z was funny. We were in traffic and the driver starts taunting me out the window. You're driving a shoebox, etc. stupid stuff. He would accel but wasn't bright enough to look ahead so he'd get pinned in traffic and I got ahead of them several times with minor lane changes. The guy catches back up with me, we exchanged a few insults and I say "At least I'm not driving my MOM's car." The guy's buddies start cracking up, he starts turning red and I just laughed... Bullseye!!

I've been noticing this too. Maybe it's just city driving, but people are ridiculous about it. I have an '06 xB, I never drive like an idiot, never tailgate if I can help it, but people are absolutely retarded out there around my car. I look out of the rear view mirror and I can't even see headlights and the very top of someone's head.

Trucks are the worst though, especially big ones. It's like the very sight of my xB threatens their manhood so they feel obligated to tailgate the hell out of me then blow by me, then get in front of me and slow down. I mean seriously... what the heck? I don't even drive slow, if anything I usually push my xB over the speed limit about six or seven mph on my way to the city.

You have to loose them on the curves - they don't expect the xB to handle as well as it does and those big pickup trucks flip over really easy - or so I have been told by a friend with an F150.

i like to squeek my tires sometimes, like on a turn, but thats for my own amusement. and when i go behind a 7/11 i floor it, because im between 2 walls so its cool to hear the engine. other than that? its no use to race, considering how usually i got like 2 friends in the car. i dont like it when people tailgate me... so i slow down and then floor it away, but i never like to floor it. execpt some random guy in an old camery tore up his tranny and lost in a race against me.. XD fun times!

vettereddie

Can't say I've ever been revved on at a light. I will have people who see me cruising on the interstate, pass me, cut me off and then slow down. I of course then pass them while maintaining speed, but sometimes if traffic is heavier I may mess with them. Once I pass, I'll then proceed to move ahead in the traffic line like a checkers piece moving downfield then laugh as they try to catch up and get stuck behind slow cars in both lanes. I love how speed means nothing when I can fit in half the space of another vehicle when I need to pass someone.

tCizzler

quick story, sorta...

I was getting on the highway minding my own business, sitting stopped in traffic none-the-less on the on-ramp lane. As a biker probably a 600 came up beside me, slowed down and revved at me and mean mugged me then kept going. But the absolute hilarious part about the situation was all of the little details... His bike had a completely stock exhaust (which sounded less than intimidating), his helmet was about 4 sizes too big, and he didn't know how to rev at me so he just pulled in his clutch and let it rev, and then he just let the clutch go. But he let it go too fast and the bike bucked and he almost went over the bars and then once he got started moving he almost layed it down because it was wobbling so much. Me and my buddy laughed for about 10 minutes at that moron.

Its really hilarious how these morons think! I always see people tailgating me and its funny because of rather than taking off I slow down. Probably the most funniest thing is that they are always older hondas with trashcan sized exhausts and have their cars primer painted with the worst sounding stereos!
