You had rice and kraut.



One time when my Z28 was still my daily driver, I was stopped at an intersection by a school crossing guard. There were 3 lanes on my side. The other 2 cars were a perfectly restored early 70's 455 Buick Stage III and a black Trans Am. I never wanted to race so bad in my life. That would have been a BLAST!

The only time I ever take a race is when the street is one of those suburban type 2 or 3 lane wide highways with 50-60mph speed limits. I'll go WOT untill the car shifts into third and then set the cruise at the normal speed. I asked a cop friend of mine. There's nothing illegal about rapid acceleration as long as you dont jump past the speed limit or leave a burnout trail.

[LuckyLuke]

Well, I did the rapid accelleration at the start.. twice, I lead the way, but when I hit the street speed limit they blew pass me. Well, I guess now they can go tell their friends they beat the G...

I got pulled over for drag racing couple of years ago. I still kept my ticket on the dashboard to remind me not to do it ever again.

Here it is not a ticket...it is jail time. I ain't going to jail. It hurts my ego to back down from a challenge, but I don't want to be somebodies bit*h in a Memphis prison either.

Good going, except you didn't come in fifth, you won. Losers race on the streets.

Maybe ok in your state or your cop friend is wrong. In many states they go by the definition of racing. This can be as simple as simply competing against another car. May be hard to prove in many cases.

If you ever do just go up to the biggest guy there and tell him you are his. That way you don't have to fight everyone between the smallest guy and him.

Actually you go up the biggest guy and hit him with your lunch tray.

Well, if it were lunch, i'm sure the biggest guy would be trying to take your lunch tray.

May get you 24-32 hours in solitary, but no one f***s with you after.

20 something with his gf in a mid 70s F150 (rust, stock everything) was my latest one trying to race me, that was early today after washing off the car and testing out the new intake.

Took out my 240 Vert today and everything on the road tries to race, even though it is just slow and loud.

I have to day good work mate!

Ahh... becoming British with Top Gear lol!

Personal experience?

Never been to jail. Since I am not that tall, I learned early to run if necessary, but if possible go toe to toe and then go home to wash off all the blood. The first day of high school a senior screwed with me and I smacked him back before I had a chance to see that this was not a good thing to do. However it turned out that it was a very good thing as I ended up being respected by a group which included some very easy to look at members. Being a short sophmore came in handy during the slow danceswith the tall senior girlsl.

What's up with the VW's? I have to deal with those all the time. Also bunch of Acuras with fart cans try to race. Most of the time I just rev it few times and when the green light is on just roll gently. I had one guy almost ended up in the ditch. He was so surprised I did not floor it. He looked back and as he looked back he was turning the wheel and crossing in the lane front of me and almost into the ditch. Crossed back and pulled over to the ide of the road as I drove by him. Hm,.... now I think this way I won. I passed him eh....

I like to push my car but mostly when there is nobody around me.
