stupid civic

today i was driving down rt. 130 and im in the left lane and there is a civic along side of me i guess he didnt see me and he started moving into my lane i slamed my brakes on then i down shifted and when we got to the next light he started reving his car and i laughed at him we took off and it was all over for him i gave him the finger and went home. i was so mad though cause if he would of hit me i would of went into the median and totaled my car.:uhoh:

Freakin-A man, I hate people who do that. That happened to me once too while I was driving in the freeway in carpool. These two guys in a champagne Camry came into my lane and I had to brake HARD just to avoid hitting them. I was so mad that I sped past them, gave 'em the bird while expressing my feelings (LOL), somewhat lost control because I was so mad (good thing no other cars were around), and drove off. But yeah, glad your okay bro.

I hate people like that. the most i hate is when your at a stop light and a shitty car tries to race you. its like im not going to risk getting a ticket for racing a shitty car.

Same here, can u believe i was racin this one car this time an out of nowhere this cavalier eased by me : \

A cavalier? You mean chevys most riced car lol, I thought they sucked? Or was it allready going quick.

naw, he must of had some goodies under the hood.. it wasnt an actual race.. he was behind me and the car beside me decided to hit the gas so i floored it an i see him jump into the lane beside me.. he better hope i dont pull up beside him at a light someday :) ... but i can smoke a stock cavalier easily

heh thought so, you got a tt or na stealth?

mine is a NA DOHC

have u ever raced any1?

No there's not much of that around here and I am just learning a stick (just got my car this month), so racing is kinda not for me right now.

i have seen some modified cavaliers though that look like an eclipse. sad thing is they have like 160 hp. the car that passed you must of had a jump on you or has a completely dif engine or turbos all suped up. but who would supe up a chevy cavalier haha.

lol yea... it looked like an 03 or 04.. had a body kit that looked stock tho.. but my car is an auto, i would have been faster if i started from L an then shifted on up

I also raced my friend once.. he has a 2000 mustang. all stock, an he beat me. but now i got another engine from japan an this engine is a lot stronger than the one i had

so if you shift manually with an auto its better for racing?

yea.. cuz when its in drive... an u floor it... in second gear going into 3rd it will rev up to 6500 an stay there for bout 4 seconds.. then finally shift to 3rd... but doin it manually u will have to shift up about 1500 before where u want it to shift cuz it takes a couple seconds

Don't do that, rachet shifting isn't any good for an auto.

i figured it would be the same as a manual?

how does it mess up an auto?
