I'm sure anybody on here whos car looks or sounds fast has had this experience. You're sitting at a light and the guy next to you doesn't want to race you he just yells out a demand that you light up the tires or dump the clutch or some equally silly crap because he wants to see it.I get this a lot and the other day I was riding my bike and a guy schlepping down the sidewalk was doing his best chump-mime impersonation begging me to do a wheelie. Who are you? why are you talking to me? do you think I owe you something? do you buy my gas, pay my insurance and will you pay my ticket and accept the points on your license? **** off loser, get your own car, or bike, or razor scooter or woman for that matter!These people irritate me infinately more than the guy on the sputtering 400 who wants to race my healthy 600 or the guy in the automatic Civic with a slip on muffler who wants to race my Skyline. At least those goofs want to get involved, that's worth a few points. These dinks who seem to live vicariously through the sound of my car's blowoff valve are pathetic and need to stay in their parents basement where they can't pollute society.:rolleyes

its because you have something that they want and will never have. they are interested in your vehicles and think that all people that drive hooked up cars/bikes like to show off, which for the most part is true.

because we're ***holes :D (how'd that get past filters?)

sometimes people do that with my car, most of the time I gladly oblige (that's cuz I'm special, or that's what my mommy says anyway)

I bait people into flooring it with nice cars so I can listen to them.

I "raced" a 996 Turbo w/ Exhaust just so I could hear it.

I don't rev at them, but I did take off aggressively like I was going to cut him off haha :D

I was baited by a Corolla when I was on my bike. Cold_Zero insists it was him in his Subaru, but it was actually him in his Corolla that he badged with WRX signage.

I suppose I need some stickers.

Hard to bait someone into a little stoplight tango with a Q.

I DO get lots of activity on the freeway - Beemer geeks hate it when I pass them ON the onramp. :)

Ok the worst thing is when your friends want you to lay it down. All my friends are hippocrates save a few. If you got a decent car they want you to go lay it down at the races and smoke some dude you dont know. But they wont race anyone in theyre show queen cars unless they know you really well.

I was talking to my friend about Hot import nights recently and honestly I hate that show its jsut a bunch of pretty cars that happen to have really tight as engines in them. If anything you could jsut make your car look really nice and pretty and keep the hood closed and people would still **** over it. Any car can look good with modification but the real challenge is in the engine.

OK im just venting cause all my friends are idiots.

I love the way stupidity kinda multiplies. Case in point my friend says "Burn the tires" So I spin my car and tear through a parking lot. This begats A crazy bastard in an accord to go ape in the lot. That leads o a guy in an s10 going crazy and almost hitting a brick wall. Finally it leads to a man in a daytona trying to slide and simple busting something. Good times!

amen, I think I'm gonna get a big wing with heavy duty magnets on the pedestals, so at the next stop light, I can hop out and pull it off and stick it in the trunk real quick.

or just put the powered by honda seatbelt pads back on:D

Its incredibly hard to get someone to play when driving a Q.... All of my racing has been done by someone I know....

I am proud to say I have the fastest BY FAR car at my high school!!!

I wanna go on the interstate for some ownage, because at a roll like that is when the Q shines!!!

Go figure

A friend of mine visits Japan frequently, and he's told me stories of incidents involving loud, rude, obstinate americans, doing retarded things in public. And it's usually the Navy men (or women)getting into trouble.

very sad..
