I know that your adrenaline gets going when someone wants to race you, but why would you race a wrx? Not flaming, just trying to understand...

Why would you race anything with a turbo in it? (Well, unless it was an Insight!) [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

If you know anything about your cars, you know you're gonna loose off the line w/ a wrx but its what happens later that's more fun-if you do ever catch up to him or manuever your way back up to him, that's when your driving and decision making kicks in. that's why you even try-you'd be foolish to think you'd have half a shot at beating him(unless he stalls or something) but it's always fun when you guys are both messing around.

Well at least you gave it your best shot. I race cars that I know I'll get whooped by too. It's all in good fun. Me and the driver both have a good laugh (about me losing).[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

i never race anyone in the civic, cause i know i will et killed, but i do race tibourons, cause i can beat those!! of course, i will race anything when i get to drive the 'stang (99 gt 5 speed, headers, S/C, hypertech programmer etc.) lol, but that is once in a blue moon that my dad will let me drive his toy!! i have driven the thing maybe once. I want to race my neighbor tho, he has an old MG, like a '59? i don't realy know!

that's what's so fun when you own a turbo'd car, you look at the cars driving by you, and realize you cna beat a lot of them.. it's like "oh.. a civic, i cna beat that", "oh a teg, i cna beat that", "look, a rsx-r, i can beat that!" [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

Funny, because when I pass [insert fast car] on the freeway ( I normally drive 80 mph on average), I'm thinking their thinking the same thing what you just said (Make sense).

I'm not a racer and I get ALOT of "challenges" every single day, and I simply ignore them, which is quite cool because the other person seems to get mad or something.

I cannot stand people that try to act hard by doing childish things, stare downs, cutting you off, basically disrespecting you.

Its cool with friends and all, but $hit people, let me be...I'm going from A to B.

I know. sheesh.

if I'm speeding recklessly, please dont try to speed along recklessly next to me too.. I dont want to get pull over for racing. I want to get pull over for what I deserve, speeding.

anyway I stop speeding recklessly but still. people think u pass by them at 90+ mph you're trying to race or something.

I can't help but try to race someone who pulls up next to me and looks over. Even old guys in cadillacs do it. I have never had a bad experience racing between lights, myself and the other party usually laugh about it.
Its all in good fun and you have to have limits
