My cousins friends was driving one of the ones i beat and he said he was pushing it soo hard that it started making noises like the turbo was going to blow up, but it was a rental so he wasn't worried,lol. His own car is the same but the vector edition with about 50 more ponies (i think) and that thing crushes me. I don't like to fight, but i ain't scared to bleed..... Most don't mess with a guy like me- Eric Church

I find that really hard to believe with your comment you make it like I'm beating a Bugatti I/H/E/P does not equal destroying a GTI 2.0T by 2 car lengths. I'm not saying you didn't win. However putting a capable driver behind the wheel of the GTI 2.0T with it's 180 whp around 5500 rpm and 180+ ft lbs of torque at 1900 rpm, he'd be the one taking you down by at least 1 car length if he was a decent driver. My comment simply points out that guy didn't know how to shift and you exploited that.

Aviator213 Hagerstown Maryland, US Scion Guru	So it wasnt a side by side race but i was following my friend who has an integra GSR with an intake headers exhaust and a few other goodies and when we turned onto a road with a good 1 mile straight after a truck turned out in front of him I heard him downshift and I did the same and then he nailed it so I played chase, I held right on his back bumper until we ran into some traffic and had to slow down, I felt pretty good about holding with him since I 1. couldnt pass him and 2. he had the jump. I think if it would have been dual lanes I could have gotten even with him and even passed him

Oreoman Phoenix Arizona, US Oil Changer	Nobody wants to race me. I've had my car for 2 months now, not like I go around looking for races, and no one has flexed on me yet. Probably afraid to lose to a TC, or maybe because I don't have any eye candy for them to even notice me. Also, my car sounds like it's dragging soda pop cans down the street because I need a res, and they are to busy laughing at how my car sounds to even gas up a little. Oh well.

Aviator213 Hagerstown Maryland, US Scion Guru	Ugh i cant stand stupid punks that think that driving like idiots and getting ricer passes are cool. I was on my way out to the airport for a flying lesson today and on the way I had these 2 stupid guys riding my A$$ almost the whole way in this crappy old honda accord one of the old box like ones that looked like this I finally got tired of it and downshifted and nailed it and put a good 10 car lengths in between us and I saw that they were trying to catch up but couldnt. SO when I slowed down again he came up crossed over the double yellow into the oncoming lane at a hill no less so he couldnt see, pulled up even with me and flicked me off then continued around me laughing. I had considered speeding up once he pulled even with me but thought better of it. Thinking back now I wish id have held right by his side so he couldnt get over and that would have forced him to slow down and tuck in behind me because I saw that there was traffic coming. I guess he got pleasure out of getting a ricerish pass on me and if I see him again hes a dead man because hes not going to get a pass like that on me anymore. The stupidity of some of these people to pass over a double yellow line heading up a hill no less is amazing. People like that are the reason innocent people get killed

Orin Auburn Alabama, US	^WTF were they thinking? You know what it is? some folks are just plain retarded in the head and they think flying past you at 80 mph when you're foot wasn't even on the gas means they've won. You did the right thing by not giving into the Ricer Dark Side ^ that person is upset because they drive that ^^

Aviator213 Hagerstown Maryland, US Scion Guru	Yeah I suppose, its poeple like that who are the reason for my road rage. I hope if he tries to pull a stunt like that on someone else that they dont put up with him doing something like that and dont let him pass id feel alot better then, that'd chop him down to size. Sorry to thread jack with this post next ones should be on topic

777ipd Bakersfield California, US Master Mechanic	The other day there was a 03 or 04 Corolla S (stick no mods) that was playing cat and mouse with me, I gave it a little, every time thinking he'll go away if I just ignore him. But after few min we were at a light and he was revving he engine and looking at me, my friend said give it to him he has it come'n. Oh wow!!! I pulled 2.5 cars on him! When he passed me at the next light (I turned) he flipped me the bird. HA HA I haven't raced much so, is 2.5 cars good for (Corolla) I/H/C and injectors vs a stock Corolla? Mac and iPhone/iPod help!

gre_v1 Bethel Park Pennsylvania, US Master Mechanic	Ok, so tonight my buddy and I both needed to go buy gas, so we decided to go to the gas station right down the street from where we work, considering we had just gotten done. He has a 99 Cavalier with a Megan full exhaust(header-back) and my auto w/ Injen SRI and axle back. Anyway, we almost get to the gas station and good thing I was paying attention cuz I hear 3 honks, and we both gun it. Easily pulled 4 or 5 cars by the time I got to 65-70. I really love my intake. lol.

greddytc05 Hagerstown Maryland, US Vehicle Designer	i hate young punks who drive around in there base model civic with an intake and exhaust that think they are fast and that everyone wants to race. a couple nights ago my fiance and i were just driving around for the first time this year seeing what cars are out running around now. well after we hit the turn around area we notice a buddy of ours on the other side of the street heading for the turn around. the road is a double lane road. we are in the left lane and i see in my mirror that my friend is coming up behind me. while looking in my mirror i noticed a civic on my right side just behind me. well not thinking i flash my break lights for my buddy so he realizes its me. and as soon as i did the moron in the civic thinks i was doing it to get him to race. i heard him downshift and start pacing me. i tried slowing down to get behind him but he just started slowing down also. so i said the hell with it, dropped it in 3rd dusted past his ass then got infont of him in the right hand lane. so then i was waiting for my friend to pull up next to me then the boy in the civic cuts my friend off to get next to me again. this time nobody was behind me so i just hit the brakes and fell back next to my friend. after that the kid left me alone. i know it was kind of my fault since i flashed my break lights but still. then on sunday i was on my way to my parents house to eat for easter minding my own buisness when another yo boy in a mustang pulled up next to me and piped it at like 3 in the afternoon. i can't stand some of the morons in my area. anyone else have this problem?

My biggest problem are people that accelerate at grandma's pace when the light turns green (purposefully) thinking I'm not going to be able to pass them once they press their pedal.
